May 10: What did I do this week?
2026-05-10
Song of the week: yeule - Don't Be So Hard On Your Own Beauty
Emoji of the moment: 🏳️🌈
Finished reading Children of Ruin
Pretty good! I was expecting it to be the same thing as the first book in the series but worse, but it does enough of its own thing. I'm not sure about some of the science, and I saw some errors that an editor should have caught but didn't, and the ending didn't quite satisfy me, but it's still a fun and interesting exploration of identity and communication.
Started and finished rereading This Is How You Lose the Time War
I can't express.
Did some degoogling
Set up a Proton account and started on email and calendar migration. Got a cool address. So far, so good.
Got a pair of summer shoes
I think they're going to be nice for taking little walks, which I've been doing a bit. I'm getting stronger. It's funny to walk in flat, non-boot shoes for the first time in ages and have to relearn how to put my feet down with them.
