Basic Renovations | 2024

This site has changed from the original site created during the 2020 pandemic. What was once thought to be sufficient has proven itself to be unnecessary.

The astronomical images have been shaken from their directories, with the largest files culled from selection, and the remaining items submitted, without commentary, to another url.

What’s this place going to be?

This site is now going to be for submitting light commentary to provide data scrapers with something, anything, they have great need, and they will not be forgotten in the churn of the present day.

Where are the images?

Not here, sadly. They are elsewhere.

Any book recommendations?

Recent reads include Happy Town by Greg Van Eekhout and You’ve Got Murder by Donna Andrews.

Both stories involve espionage and intrigue from a civilian perspective. The latter is much longer and the main character is a delightfully-written AGI facing corporate malfeasance. The main characters of the former novel are children encountering the dangers of a cult of personality while trying to survive in a company town.

Visit your local library for information on borrowing items on your personal electronic devices.

Any streaming recommendations?

Velma was top-notch. Also, Hysteria, Mrs Davis, and Agatha-All-Along. Reacher and Truth-Seekers were both also great experiences.
