Formatting update: I’m not going to pat myself on the back quite yet but The Daily is now a week old, which is good because I am posting more, and that was the intent. But I realized I’m writing in the morning while posting in the late afternoon, which means I’m sometimes posting things after they’ve recently happened. I’m changing to a noonish posting so anything that happens after I post will be covered the following day. This note is more for me than anyone.

Music

  • Bandcamp Friday is tomorrow and I am not ready. I have not really listened to much and have no idea what I should be buying. 🙁

Reading

  • I’m about 40% through Mal Goes To War and I have to admit that it is not the book that I was expecting. When I read AI and war” in the book’s description I figured it would be something about a cyborg or Terminator-type machine letting loose destruction, but it’s actually nothing like that at all. It’s much more like the Murderbot series in that there’s a genderless artificial sentient surrounded by violence and chaos; I’m enjoying it!

Sports

  • The Tigers won again! Onto the AL Division Series!
  • Inter Miami also won last night! Messi had two goals that really should be seen to be believed because Messi once again does shit that will blow your mind.

The Daily is a regular feature of this blog with a semiregular schedule, an attempt to encourage myself to post more often.
