  • I got an LED installed in my uvula so I can sit outside with my mouth open and moths can find their way in. They bring things that they would put in their mouth if they had one. By the end of a good evening my mouth can get pretty full. Sometimes when I spit out all the tree bark, tiny rocks, and dead moths I wonder if maybe it’s a good thing they don’t have mouths since they don’t seem to know what is good to eat. I still share my mouth with them though, they’d know better if they had their own mouths, but they don’t so my charity is the only way they could try out using a mouth.




  • Last book: The Dungeon Anarchist’s Cookbook. It’s book three in the Dungeon Crawler Carl series, which I’m enjoying a lot. Sometimes the game mechanic details get a little tiring, but they’re typically meaningful to the larger story, or at least the action scenes. The human drama of it is where it really shines, tons of righteous indignation and coming together against adversity. Lots of humor sprinkled in. It can be a little crude and definitely very violent, I’d recommend it as long as those aren’t deal breakers.

    Current book: Citadel of the Autarch, fourth book in the New Sun series. It’s good so far, building on the story of the first three books, interested to see how it reaches the situation foreshadowed in the first book via the framing device of this being a memoir written by the main character. The meandering plot with occasional tangent story-within-a-story have made it a slower read for me, but the surreality of it keeps it intriguing during the slower moments. I’d definitely recommend it, it’s clear why this is a well regarded series, very different from my usual read.
