We'll always be able to 'turn it off', probably, maybe. Until we have to go into regedit, or it's integrated into File Explorer.

Microsoft is lucky most of its userbase is tech-illiterate or it wouldn't command the OS market share it does. Windows 11 is an inferior product on par with malware.

Posting some fun drawings I made from scratch. I'm getting better at anime but still know nothing decent about shading.

Worldbuilding for novels is basically you building a game engine for a book. You get to be 2000s-era Blizzard hacking away at its w3 engine and it's pretty great. 💙📚

The "A Very Short Introduction" series is just the coolest thing to carry around in your pocket. They are literal pocket books, on every topic from military strategy to cryptography, history, arts, etc... I love them and wish I had every book in the collection! 📚👀

Made a new end screen for my #booktube channel on YouTube. Took a while to get the details just right but I like the final outcome! 📚👀 (picture version here; the moving / warping one will be on my upcoming videoessay)

You watch a YouTube video and halfway through 3 ads start playing back-to-back. I've never had that happen with a book. 📚👀

Every fiction book is just a remix of the dictionary. So just read the dictionary. This has been your weekly reading tip from me, Tom. 📚👀

The good news: I read four books in the last month and a half; I plan to up that amount shortly.

The bad news: My TBR pile is now nearly stacked to my room's ceiling; I plan to up that amount shortly.

Also hi everyone! If you like books, video essays, reading & writing, and other fun wordy stuff, let's follow each other! I pretty much enjoy talking about all genres, themes, book reviews, and also getting recommendations from people.

Plus Game of Thrones, HoTD, LOTR, Cosmere, etc... are all fun!
