Thank you for doing this, now I can more effectively manage my cat community subscriptions to get the perfect ratio of cat to everything else!

Why does nba.com list J. Hood-Schifino at 6-4 but then in their analysis call him a ‘big point guard, standing at 6-foot-6’? Weak. Anyway, I am not sure about the pick considering that the Lakers need to get better ASAP. Seems like a pick for the post-Lebron future, I guess.

I am pretty sure I saw a homelab community on lemmy.ml already, just FYI.

Cat regret, lol.

Actively searching for new music is fun to me. I ask for recommendations from close friends, family members, people I know online, and just the internet in general. Typing ‘artist that sounds like _______’ into a search engine has been surprisingly successful, almost on par with the other methods, lol.

I also just recently discovered Bandsintown, which suggests artists playing live in my area that are similar to the ones I am already following (i.e., willing to pay money to see). I listen to a few of their songs and if I like them enough, now I have a new performance to go to!

For every song I listen to from my teens/20s, I listen to at least 2-3 songs from artists I discovered much more recently. The amount of good music is never the problem - there’s just not enough time in the day!

On book 9 (Winter’s Heart) of the Wheel of Time right now, albeit for the 4th time! If it’s your first read of the series I hope you’re enjoying it, it’s my favorite of all time. Book 11 is one of the very best!

I also just started The Prince of Nothing series, for which I’ve heard good things. I’ll have more to say about it later.

IMO, yes, it was a good first season with some flaws that will hopefully be improved upon just like the first book was good (not great) and definitely improved upon by subsequent entries.

I’ve read the series 3 times, and am on my 4th read (book 9) right now. Having re-read book 1 in 2019, I had a pretty clear memory of it when the show premiered and was glad to see some repetitive and inconsistent content from book 1 cut and replaced with more integral subject matter (e.g., the warder bond).

Overall, I am most happy to see the world and characters introduced to a larger audience, who seem to be finding the books in the lull between seasons. I also typically give adaptations plenty of leeway to tell the story in a way that works for the new medium. I am psyched to see how they did with season 2.
