Literature is not exhaustible, for the sufficient and simple reason that no single book is. A book is not an isolated being: it is a relationship, an axis of innumerable relationships.
Finally getting around to spending a bunch of birthday money on stuff I don't actually need.





The Essential Dykes to Watch Out For, re-reading Fun Home made me remember how much I liked Bechdel's early work too.





Conversation of Shadows, Yoon Ha Lee is probably my favorite new SF author. I've had this as an ebook for a while but I want it on paper. You can read "Ghostweight" for free here and it's a good introduction to her style and subjects.





Logitech M705, to replace the Intellimouse Explorer v3 that finally died after about ten years.





UE Mini Boom, so I can listen to music while doing housework without getting my earphones caught on everything.





"Brill Bruisers" by the New Pornographers, I think this is a lot better than "Together" was and I've been enjoying it a great deal. I want it on an actual CD because I'm old.

Didn't see this in time, we're about to head to the airport. But we did just grab some fish and chips at, appropriately enough, Icelandic Fish & Chips. That was also very delicious. We're probably going to come back in a few years, I'll make a note of 3 Frakkar, hopefully it'll still be around then.

Curved TVs have a processor built into them that attempts to adjust the depth of the image. They are even more gimmicky than 3D TVs. We got one in the office and nobody could tell the difference.

Call me "pixeltits"

A gym bag:



Ogio Crunch. One of the side pockets has an oversized lining that extends inside the bag itself, called a shoe tunnel. My shoes fit in there while still being kept separate from the rest of the bag and without making the bag bulge out. Also has enough pockets that I can put all my gym stuff in there, including a change of clothes and all the miscellany like chalk, wrist wraps, etc. With the weather here in New England slated to get much worse, I'll probably have to start changing and showering at the gym, so a bag was a necessity.

Apropos wrist wraps, just picked these babies up:



Harbinger Red Line. Very comfortable, only about :10bux: on Amazon.

'Bout to put down a tuition deposit at the school that's hopefully gonna turn me into a physical therapy assistant.

They do that? I thought they were just supposed to produce a more similar eyeball-to-screen distance on the edge vs. center of the TV. In any case, curved monitors make sense because there's a substantial percentage difference in distance from the center to the edge of a 34" display.

For a 60"+ TV when you're sitting 10' away, that difference is minimal.

If you have more than 1-2 person watching curved is worse than non-curved, as people sit then outside the center. Stupid gimmick.

We got it set up last night and the picture is actually incredible. The amount of realism and depth is something I have never seen in a TV (apart from when we viewed it in the store). The wife sits off to the right a little with no affect on the picture at all, viewing angle is just as good as my last Samsung 50" plasma. You can't even tell its curved when viewing which is the whole point, it add depth. Really happy with it, especially the native 4k upscaling.
