heck. Got halfway through making dinner before realizing I don't actually have any pasta in the house. Grocery store time I guess.

Y'all, send me some good glitch music.

I just found this: an introduction to Robert Kegan's 5-stage model of moral development.

Like all "stage" models it's inherently incomplete and has significant limitations, but is definitely an interesting thing to think about.

This is an especially nice in contrast to the hyper-competence of Breq in Ancillary.

Ingray's fear and overwhelmed-ness resonated with me.

I super appreciate this depiction of someone who displays incredible courage while also still just sort of muddling along, trying to deal with situations outside of her experience and internalized ability.

The part where she had a gun pressed to her head really did convey "she is facing threat of imminent death and can't really deal" so much better than most stories.

Provenance is set in a different culture than Ancillary (within the same universe) and is approaching a somewhat different set of themes, but it's written in the same voice and is undeniably a work of the same author.

The last few books by Anne Leckie were set in a culture that had zero genders. The newest one is set in a culture with three :)

Yay, job interview went really well I think.

Box wine is a brilliant invention and almost entirely fixes the most annoying thing about the drink.

One thing that's really fascinating about tabletop RPGs is how permeable the barrier between what's inside and what's outside of the fiction is. Diagesis is a matter of negotiation.
