Destroyed by the Waters by Rachel Swirsky ★★☆☆☆ Profoundly boring. I had to give it three go’s to get to the end.
The New Venusians by Sean Williams ★★★☆☆
Half asleep from the previous story I did not fully appreciated this one. It was about a girl visiting her grandfather on Venus just as he does something momentous.
Was he against terraforming? Was that the point?
Book burning, it’s the final straw isn’t it? I deleted my news apps months ago so I don’t know anything about these riots, curfews, except what I read here. Locally, things are getting back to a casual version of normal. It’s warm and peaceful. I see police all the time as I walk my dogs, I wave, they wave back. I enjoy my peace and let it flow.
I am only 56% into Moby Dick but I’m not quitting. I will extend Merfolk May through June due to the years craziness.
What Is by Jeffrey Ford ★★★☆☆ Sad story about a community that forgets to be a community when thing get tough. At least the dog survives.
Ever since Scribd removed its limitations I’ve been racing through the In Death Series. I also started a Solarpunk group with Fiona which has been fun.

The Common Tongue, The Present Tense, The Known by Nina Allen ★★★½☆
A thoughtful look at the past from the postdiluvian perspective. When you are trying to remake a better world, maybe it’s best to just let go of the old because it’s not longer relevant.

Because Change Was The Ocean and We Lived By Her Mercy by Charlie Jane Anders ★★★½☆
“Staring down at the wasteland, trying to imagine how many generations it would take before something green came out of it.”
Another Solarpunk type story, this one somber and full of hard graft. Change and progress were difficult here.
Audiobooks are a joy. Reading while walking, doing errands, or shuttling your eyes with a glass of whiskey.
Oh gosh Ian that is hard! Everyone in medical jobs has been burning the candle at both ends. I don’t watch the news anymore but I did see an image of medical workers with bruised faces from the masks they wear for hours. I just wear them to the stores and find them suffocating. I hope you find some time to relax. Hey, I have a bunch of audible credits right now. Give me your email and a title of audiobook you want and I’ll send it to you!
Ever seen Major Payne? Very funny movie, every time he was promoted he changed his name to the rank.
Dark the final third season is coming next month!!!!!https://youtu.be/8vwwzJT-SAg
