Harvey

We said goodbye to Harvey today. It was very peaceful and very quick. He has been slowing down for a few months, but on Tuesday he was normal and on Wednesday morning he stopped eating. We took him to the emergency vet yesterday, who warned us there was no hope. He had declined even between then and going to our regular vet this afternoon, but I'm confident he wasn't in any pain or discomfort.

He was a terrible cat, and I miss him

Murderbot (AppleTV+ 2025)

The trailer for the Murderbot TV series is out, and I'll be honest: it gives me the ick. Like, I've blocklisted the word "Murderbot" on my social media, blocked Martha Wells so I don't see her promotional posts in my timelines, and I'm thinking of giving my books away.

Which is absolutely an overreaction, so I'm sitting on my hands for now, but it has powerful "we have completely captured everything you imagined, except it's white, cis, male and incredibly cheap looking".

AppleTV+ generally produces quite decent-to-good sci-fi, so I assume this will be watchable, but so far it looks generic and boring.

Semi-related, but I did wind up creating a little newsletter where I talk about the TV I've been watching, with an option for other media as the mood strikes me. I have 16 subscribers! You could be the 17th!
