recycle that media!
Currently re-reading Meagan Spooner's Sherwood. I'm going to buy a physical copy of the book at some point; right now it's a digital library loan.
Watching Burn Notice for the first time; it's an older show, butladytharen has been watching it for the first time as well, and her positive reaction persuaded me to give it a try. We agreed that people should have tried pitching us the show by mentioning that there's a lady criminal in it. And there is! Granted, the leading man gets more screen time, but all in all, it's just about perfect for right now: not too stressful, pretty scenery and people, a case of the week (so far, anyway) with a bigger, long-term storyline happening a piece at a time, too.
I'm not watching at a fast pace; it's interesting enough to keep going but I haven't felt like binging it. At least not so far.
To complete this feast of engaging or re-engaging in comfort media, I've been re-reading some of my older posts about Battlestar Galactica. Most of what I wrote was over a decade ago; it really does feel a bit like excavating a time capsule. Especially when I see so many user names in the comments who have disappeared over the years.
(Can you believe that more than a decade after the show ended, people are still out there posting outrageously bad takes about Dualla?! I mean, yeah, you probably can.)
