Logan's Sanctuary by Roger Joseph Manning Jr. & Brian Reitzell Ex.

Wait, are you allowed to listen to Logan’s Run if you’re over 30?

🥶 “Today, a law firm representing the interests of Netflix users filed a class action lawsuit against the American Netflix service with the Khamovnichesky district court of Moscow,” the law firm Chernyshov, Lukoyanov & Partners said, according to a report by the news agency RIA. “The reason for the lawsuit was a violation of Russian users’ rights due to Netflix’s unilateral refusal to provide services in Russia.” https://www.theguardian.com/media/2022/apr/13/netflix-subscribers-russia-class-action-loss-service-ukraine

Could their $29 Pure HDR plugin solve your needs, instead of the stand alone? This is though outside my understanding. If anyone has a spare Leica around check out this Kickstarter. Then check out the photos. Ouch.

Qsound doesn't get many mentions, so we gotta celebrate when we can. Was at Santa Cruz Boardwalk today, which always seems decades out of date, and while glancing at a video game got a warm surprise in its cycling screens.

Had outer stitches removed from my neck today due a hole made recently extracting a growth. Not sure if it was ever really in doubt, but was tested and a simple epidermal inclusion cyst, thus benign. One of those I never felt in danger, but still felt strangely giddy when the expected test results came back.

Rewatched the first season of Better Things (Hulu) before tackling the new season. So beautiful from the start and so underrated as a series.
