Rogue Protocol by Martha Wells, and I’m listening to the audio book The Demon of Unrest by Erik Larson.

I’m sad to lose the cross stitching videos, the travel log clips, the live streams of people playing instruments, and the tons of animal videos. Trying Instagram Reels, everything feels performative, which is annoying.

Huh. I use checkout multiple times a day every day. It's how I switch branches, including creating new branches. I guess I could use other commands, but why change what's working fine?

I read The Hot Zone by Richard Preston and Into Thin Air by Jon Krakauer. Enjoyed both. Think I preferred Into Thin Air.

1899 was my cutoff, too. They had the nerve to recommend the show to me after it had been canceled, which I didn't know at the time. Got invested and looked for a season two release date, which is how I learned it was canceled. No longer a subscriber now.

Interesting, when I go to my purchases in the app store, I see Alien Blue, but consistently when I tap it to try and re-download it, I get a "failed to connect to App Store" error.
