Artemis was good for what it was, a heist story on the moon, but Weir has a style and his foreshadowing can use some stealth.

If shows are you thing For All Mankind is about the politics of NASA after losing the moon race to the soviets, they do get to a moon base and other stuff.

That’s the order that the units are in. Why would you put further units first?

I mean yeah you get a new one each time.

There just sounds like there’s such good lore in them, a lot of the old republic era is YA if I’m not mistaken. But it’s for ages 8-14(?) so the quality and content is all over the place.

My brother gave me his old Thrawn trilogy copies when I got back into reading, after those I read the two horror ones, death troopers and red harvest I think, and decided to go deep from the start. He had like 80% of the books found by then.

He buys them used while he travels.

My brother whom I’m borrowing the books from has read a couple of the further sagas and is waiting for me to get to them.

I’ve loved reading from the beginning even before Banes rule of 2.

He’s just starting to get the comics, so I’ve missed the Emperor Risen arc, so I’ll have to go back to that one eventually. Also none of young adult books either. I’ve heard… mixed things about them.

Yes? Is that weird? If you’re inclusive and providing representation to otherwise less abled and neurodivergent and hiring them as employees, seems like the right thing to do.

I… didn’t enjoy it, I don’t know if was the author, or just an issue with the publication era if that makes sense.

They introduced characters like you knew who they should be, I had just finished reading the Jedi Academy trilogy, so was super confused about Cray and Nico’s at first. I get introducing characters to flesh out later in other stories, but it just wasn’t well done.

What were your thoughts?

I finished Children of the Jedi just in time to get Dungeon Crawler Carl for my birthday, the entire series.

So I finished book 1 yesterday and am moving on to read Darksaber before going to Carl book 2. Tough decision haha.

Goddamnit Donut!

Introverts vs extroverts.

Some don’t mind shooting the shit and chatting.

You throw the wallet out like an anchor.

 

The tomatoes and peppers aren’t going to like this at all. ~100mm of rain as well over a few days.

 

22 Tomato and 11 pepper plants, spacings a little tighter than it should be on some of the tomatoes, but it should be okay.

 
 
 
 

I’m planning on grabbing some more Asimov books and grab most of Martha’s MurderBot series, as well as Hugo and Nebula collections.

Any other sci-fi type stuff you guys recommend? I’m not a huge fan of the more fantasy stuff, although I agree Star Wars falls into that catagory.

 

Had my second carpal tunnel release surgery last week, so I couldn’t resecure the fan correctly with only one hand.

And now, the strong Cree Cob white lights are burnt out, so now I’m left with just the supplemental wavelengths and some smaller white LEDs. The Cree ones are a LITTLE strong for vegetable starters anyways. But these aren’t enough for this stage either now.

 

An assortment of pepper and tomatoe varieties.

 
 
 

Most lived, some died. They got a little too dried out over the weekend so the smaller ones shriveled. Just forgot about them, kid had a dance comp and then my mother passed. So I’m just glad most actually survived.

Still got another month atleast before hardening, that will give the peppers about 8 weeks, they’re 4 weeks now.

 

Tents a little full, I’m expecting not every transplant to take.

For tomatoes I have:

Gusto Halia

Jubilee

Cherry Roma

Beefsteak

Black Krim

Yellow pear shape

Green zebra

Rainbow blend 

Get stuffed 

For peppers:

Red bell

Fat and sassy

jalepeno (early)

Sweetie snack mix

Hungarian hot wax

Habanero

Red habanero

Shishito

Sweet

Mini bell mix

Early sunsation

Golden California

Purple Beauty
