Yes to the re-reading! My hardcopy was delayed because of storms so I started on audio, but lord I'm confused and keep backtracking. Good backtracking, though, not annoying

Yes 🥲 I'd hoped to have it before the Texas snowpocalypse, but alas.

It's not so much that I'm avoiding socials for the politics as I'm avoiding socials for the spoilers. #OnyxStorm 🤫📖

I've switched to various international news outlets to avoid the agitation US domestic news causes me these days. Hoots for headlines from @lemonde.fr, SBS News (Australia), etc. Great stuff out there if you get past the absurdity!

#TaylorvSerrano2 is why I tolerated the abysmal buffering. Beautiful skills by both. 💪

TIL: MLK Day is a shared day of remembrance for another minister - John Chilembwe is a revered independence figure in Malawi and is celebrated on January 15th.
