Oof, better late than never? My 2022 media listing is abridged, compared with previous media listings (i.e., in the last few years): For short fiction I list only works for which I had given 10 out of 10. I usually list everything I rated 9 and higher (in my handy-dandy spreadsheets), but if I do […]

Media consumption in 2021
I have links to my Goodreads shelves, instead of manually listing every book. Unfortunately, Goodreads doesn’t easily offer a way to filter shelves based on genres, such as delineating fiction from non-fiction. N.B. I connect only with persons on Goodreads that I know IRL. I’ll continue listing webcomics, comics, and some DNF works not listed […]
Media consumption in 2020
I have a link to my Goodreads shelves below, instead of manually listing every book here. This will cover most longer fiction and non-fiction books, some graphic novels, and my did not finish (DNF) lists. Unfortunately, Goodreads doesn’t easily offer a way to filter shelves based on genres, such as delineating fiction from non-fiction. N.B. […]
Media consumption in 2019
I finally updated this post’s title to reflect that I consume more than just books and short stories — although the lion’s share is from reading and listening to podcasts. O:) Starting this year, I’ll be adding a link to my Goodreads shelves, instead of manually listing every book here. This will cover most longer […]
What I read in 2018
I should’ve noted in previous annual reading lists that I typically skim non-fiction books, especially if they are cookbooks or cover travel or languages. My friend Jed wrote an excellent article about skimming content. I have so many items to read that skimming helps me to judge if I want to read a work more […]
What I read in 2017 (plus some video)
For 2017’s list, in order to spare my hands and fingers a bit, I’m no longer swapping the (primary) writer’s last name. Content remains in alphabetic order by creator last name, though. In the future, however, I may discontinue listing DNF (did not finish) items, except for exceptions where I would want to revisit. With […]
What I read in 2016 (plus some video selections)
Here is my reading and viewing list for 2016. I recently signed up at Goodreads, so am tempted to migrate or switch over to using that for tracking reading. I’m not sure if they support webcomics, podcasts, short stories, or video content…and they’re run by a commercial entity, so longterm data preservation might be questionable. […]
What I read in 2015 (plus some video selections)
Oof, late, late! But before half this year rolls over, I’ve collated what I’ve read from 2015. As usual, 💡 (lightbulb icon) indicates a recommendation on my part, with the exception of the shorts section. To jump to a section: Comics and Art Monographs. Again, for some of the comics I started in the past, […]
What I read in 2014—and some things I watched
Happy new year, and welcome to 2015 and the annual list of stuff I read in 2014. You’ve noticed that I have not for the longest time written an article on visual media like film or television, including animé. Sadly, my animé discoveries have been sparse over the last several years. But on the plus […]
Linky: Best videos from 2008
Happy New Year, and welcome to 2009! Viral videos are a never-ending source of distraction on the ‘Net. But here are links to ones I found the most amusing. (Yes, some may have come out before 2008, but in my usual tardiness I stumbled upon them in 2008.) Enjoy! An Engineer’s Guide to Cats (YouTube […]
