Short, and probably not completely sweet:
The Hugos. Kudos to Noah Ward, and pointing and jeering (albeit, believe it or not, with a great deal of sadness) and the Sad and Rabids, who have been involved in a frothing and gnashing of teeth-type declarations that "Our Loss Proclaims Our Win!" and/or "Our Loss Proclaims that The Tiny Clique of Evil Anti-Democratic SJW's Somehow Gathered Enough Votes to Beat Usdespite us asking everyone we could think of to game the system wait, that's right out, we did not say that" - or possibly both, because ... because Puppies.
( Stupidity in real life )( Fun with coding, sort of )
And finally, I've started re-reading one of my favorite C.J. Cherryh series, the Chanur series. I had forgotten how much I loved all the characters, and the world-building; the hani, the mahe ... and, for providing really fascinating villains, the kif. And of course the methane breathers ... I'm into the fourth book and still loving it.
So - how's by everyone else?
Also - I promise I'll get back and respond to folks in earlier posts, and try to catch up with everyone else.
