I Want More Pirate Fantasy

Me original plan was to speak to ye ‘bout AI, and related things, perhaps tying in Person of Interest. But in the voyage of preparing for that Saturday Note, I sailed into a rabbit hole that was, uh… it not be a route I advise anyone sailing. And I grew weary of hearing any talk of AI, as I imagine you might be these days, too.

So, today being International Talk Like a Pirate Day, I thought I’d theme me Note over something related to gentlemen of fortune. I pondered writing the entire thing in Pirate Talk, but I reasoned it would be a pain to do and I’d rather be keelhauled than just say what I wanted to.

Trans-Siberian Orchestra announced their tour dates, too.

Incorporating Short Stories Into Canon

I had one day this week when I was running on very little sleep, but I can happily say that the nights since have been better. Unsure if I’m behind on my Book Diary–I’m on the fence if I should review one book, because I don’t know if I have anything to say about it.

Reading Argylle by “Elly Conway”. Need a new Netflix show, in the meantime I’m trying out David Letterman’s interview show. Almost done (I hope) with Assassin’s Creed: Revelations.

This is more of a, “I’m thinking about this thing,” sort of Note, so I apologize if this is more boring than usual. Here, if it’s too boring, check out this awesome song from a video game soundtrack.

Good Examples of Deconstructions

Week’s been slow, but we have a long weekend and I got out of work early on Friday! Hooray! 

Presently reading The Demigod Files, the first book of short stories set in the world of Percy Jackson, and still playing Assassin’s Creed: Revelations. Not thrilled with how much of my time in the game is spent managing my recruits in foreign cities rather than actually playing the game, which is an issue I had the first time I played it, too.

Let's Talk About Deconstruction

Look, I am fed up with surprise meetings in the morning, so if you send me a message asking to meet up in ten minutes, I’m going to throw something at you.

Re-reading The Illustrated Adventures of Sherlock Holmes right now, and still playing Assassin’s Creed: Revelations. I’ve been watching American Vandal on Netflix, though I also might try to get back into The Weekenders? We’ll see.

I Know a Trope!

I had a long, slow week–but not a bad one! Hoping to write a bit this weekend, and I hope to draw a specific thing. 

Finishing up Borderkind by Christopher Golden. I finished Dark Winds on Netflix, so we’ll see what the next show is.

Sympathetic Telepathy

Out of town again today! It's been a busy couple of months. And I expect the next couple will be busy too. Not sure how, it’s just how things have been going lately.

Facebook doesn’t seem to display Blogspot links properly anymore, which is, uh… frustrating, though at this point it’s not as if I’m going to pick a new blog site over that.

This Note was inspired by Spider-Man: Brand New Day. I’ll still try to avoid major spoilers.

MOAR Odyssey Discourse

Oi. The workdays this week sucked, but outside of work it’s been good, the past weekend was fantastic, and this weekend is scheduled to be a couple of days of chillaxing.

Presently reading London Falling by Paul Cornell, which might not have been the best choice. Hopefully, I’ll watch Spider-Man this weekend, too. Also! The Ninth Jedi episodes of Star Wars: Visions are on YouTube for free right now, to promote their full series on their streaming services. I’ve only seen the first one, back when it came out, which I thought was pretty good.
