Sunday, I guess
* The Last Best Time: https://whatever.scalzi.com/2020/03/28/the-last-best-time/ This is an article about the JoCo cruise, the same one I was on.
Because of that, at least some of us started looking at the cruise in a different light. The JoCo Cruise was always a good time — it’s why it had lasted for ten years and spawned a community that existed outside the confines of the cruise ship — but it was beginning to sink in that this might be the last good time for a while. Maybe for a long while. Or at least, the last good time we could spend with friends in reasonably close proximity, outside of the confines of our own homes.

* Some good news: the German edition of The Murderbot Diaries (translated by Frank Böhmert) is nominated for two awards: Best Foreign Work and Best Translation
