This quote from Tolkien feels cyberpunk: “Well, the first War of the Machines seems to be drawing to its final inconclusive chapter — leaving, alas, everyone the poorer, many bereaved or maimed and millions dead, and only one thing triumphant: the Machines.”

Fireworks were sublime tonight: the shock in the chest, the beauty of the flash, the dazzle of the whole display. But some of those things scream and it reminds me of the wild hunt, of war, and suffering. A good Independence Day

Finished book three in the Rhymer trilogy by Gregory Frost, Hel. I’m surprised this series isn’t more popular. A good mix of history, fantasy, sci-fi, horror.

D&D Honor Among Thieves is one of the best movies from recent years in my unasked for opinion. I cry pretty much every time and I’ve seen it about 20 times.
