I think that if Twitter goes the way of MySpace or sites so forgotten that I can't think what they were I'll make more effort to post my random thoughts and musings here instead of FB, Twitter, or any of the other toxic meme dumps that make up modern social media.

Sat, 12:17: Ever reread a book you hated in order to write a review of it only to discover it was much worse than you remembered?

Thu, 08:43: My links page hasn't been updated since January of 2008. I think after 9 years it's time to do something about that.
Thu, 11:29: Removed links that no longer go to the resources they were supposed to and links to defunct locations from the links page.
Thu, 11:32: The recent spate of edits have reduced the file size of the links page by roughly 60%. Evidently there was much cruft on the page.

Sat, 12:34: At some point soon I need to get out to a bookstore.

Wed, 10:39: Okay, today's research session is going nowhere. I need to find a new approach for the topic at hand.

Thu, 13:35: There are too many distractions today.

Wed, 14:42: While a certain amount of venting is healthy in general complaining overmuch is counterproductive and unhealthy.
Wed, 14:43: Those who complain simply to complain demonstrate poor coping skills.
Thu, 08:09: A certain emotional distance has its uses. This week has been filled with a strangeness I've yet to find words to put to it.

Sat, 15:00: I just backed Cortex Prime: A Multi-Genre Modular Roleplaying Game on @Kickstarter https://t.co/L6zu7iYjbQ

Wed, 11:31: It's been way too hot outside this week.I'm dreading the temperatures we'll see when we really get into Summer this year.

Sat, 10:12: Sometimes reading takes you to some exceedingly strange places.

Mon, 16:19: I got a good bit of writing in over the weekend. Can't wait to get back into it this evening.
Tue, 04:58: Woke up this morning wondering why I woke up. It's too early.

Mon, 09:15: A recent effort at designing a game pawn. https://t.co/NEENBJFBEu
Mon, 09:27: To tweet or not to tweet? Sometimes you just have to ask yourself whether you really want to share a thought with the world.

It was easier to figure out where to market written work back when I actually had contact with people in the local publishing concerns. Granted I was writing for smallish circulation magazines under various pseudonyms and sometimes with no byline at all but atleast I was getting words in print out there in the world. I miss those days.

There's very little on television I find interesting enough to watch on television this season. I'm really thinking it's time to finally drop the dish. Lending further impetus to that I recently received a postcard from my dish provider informing that they'll be phasing out my receiver early next year and I need to acquire new equipment from them. My current receiver/dvr unit is the same one I got when the dish was installed in the summer of 2004. It's wonder the thing still functions at all now that I think about it.

I still prefer LiveJournal and Twitter to Facebook. One day I need to sit down and figure out what it is about Facebook that gives me such a case of the willies.

I've been thinking about replacing the home server machine with a Raspberry Pi.

Recently I've noticed an increased freuqnecy in incidents of clonus. Had one earlier this evening and didn't notice until the tremors got really bad. The affected leg still feels rather sore as I write this.

While Guardians of the Galaxy was a fun movie I really would like to see more space opera epics. Seems like we haven't had a really noteworthy one in far too many years.

Speaking of space opera. Does anyone have any recommendations for space opera that isn't heavily on the mil-SF side of the spectrum? If never I read another four pages of gushing adoration for chemically propelled projectile weapons it'll be too soon. Are 20th century slugthrowers really the apex of handheld ranged weapons for the next fifty centuries?

Sat, 20:19: So many unbidden memories the evening. The echoes of the past are all around me tonight. Some sad and some happy. Need to do some writing.

Sat, 00:25: Using twenty year old software is odd sometimes. Interface standards taken for granted now simply weren't there. Things work so differently.
Sat, 00:29: It never ceases to bewilder and amaze me how much technology has changed over the span of my life. What's in store for coming decades?

Thu, 17:41: This has been one of those days that make me wonder if I project some kind of aura or secrete pheromones that attract the crazy.

Mon, 18:41: It's too early to be this sleepy. I guess it's one of those days.

Sun, 14:54: I just backed Cthulhu Playing Cards on @Kickstarter http://t.co/pd2d4iUr

Thu, 19:15: It's late and I really don't feel like cooking this evening.
Thu, 19:18: Why is it I can only find an audio book for a thirty year old book I'd like to reread in an electronic format like say on my Kindle?

Tue, 11:48: Days like today I start questioning my sanity.
Tue, 22:19: Oddly some of the research I've been doing this week was easier 20 years ago. Things change in such strange ways.
