It was already mentioned in another place, by !Arctic@lemmy.world is my personal favorite at the moment.

They mostly continue the story (example: The Search for Zuko and Azula’s Mom) or tell stories that happened off-screen (example: Suki at Boiling Rock).

Are you sure? That could be a denim shirt.

I tried to go for quick reads. The top 3 recommendations (all novellas, but incredible) would be

Ocean at the End of the Lane by Neil Gaiman Or All Systems Red by Martha Wells (already mentioned by others too) Or A Psalm for the Wild-Built by Becky Chambers

And 2 honorable mentions that are longer: Thief by Margaret Whalen Turner The Library at Mount Char by Scott Hawkins

Around 2018 when they were bought by IBT Media. They try to toe the line to seem less biased, but it’s not hard to see in the choice of topics covered and the rigor they apply (though their fact checking was never great).

Not only that, volunteer or donate if you can. Even if you only can spare 5 minutes or $5 a week, organizations like Vote Save America will help you direct your energy or 100% of your donations where they will do the most good.

Add a ballot question for ranked choice and I’d be happy as lutefisk in butter.

I tried to read this, but I got distracted by Candy Crush or whatever millennials are playing now, Royal Match maybe?

I used to use Delicious Library but the developer went to work for Apple and he can’t develop the app any longer. I switched to Book Tracker but it’s trying to be more than I want so I’m not set on it.

Is this because Ukraine forgot to say “no taksie backsies” when this was originally passed?

I’ve been reading some of the Avatar The Last Airbender comic omnibuses and I’m just starting Spinning Silver by Naomi Novik.
