Guess I should have stacked these into animated gifs—take up less space that way. But, in lieu:

Man in the High Castle s.4

Breaking Bad s . . . .2, I think?

Dracula ep2

( and, um, yeah, I just pause stuff on my television screen, creep up with my phone, angle it around to cut the glare / jack the perspective, and snap away. but it works. I mean, for my/these purpose . . . )

…

Once again, I let this get to be an unwieldy enough stack of links/reads that to slow down and make them into a pretty and proper list would keep me from revising the novel I’m revising. So, in all their likely awkwardness, with apologies for some embedding, some being URLS, some shuddering into some completely new and unlikely form, here’s my best reads from . . . lately:

Or, a missed opportunity? What got me thinking about this was that fish we see Luke carrying in The Last Jedi, that he evidently speared with that super-long spear. That fish that, for a planet that kicks up Thala-sirens (those Suessian things he milks) and frog nuns that look straight out of a live-action Emmet Otter’s Jug-Band—
