So what wires this 26-year-old techie? Click to reckon what she’s reading, watching, in addition to listening to...
Reading:
Snow Crash yesteryear Neal Stephenson — I started reading this mass because I comprehend virtual reality, in addition to it’s basically a holy text inward the VR community. Snow Crash has to practise alongside the stance of a shared virtual reality called the Metaverse. So, am I reading it for operate or pleasure? The lines are blurry.
McSweeny’s Internet Tendency — This is the best location on the Internet for (wry) sense of humor writing.
Hunger Makes Me a Modern Girl yesteryear Carrie Brownstein — Carrie Brownstein does a lot. She’s one-third of the influential Riot grrrl band Sleater-Kinney; she writes in addition to acts inward IFC’s Portlandia; in addition to similar a shot she’s published her memoir. Normally, I don’t desire to commit to i mortal riffing virtually their life for a few hundred pages, but I’d gladly accept Brownstein instruct on for equally long equally she wants.
The Guardian’s Blind Date series — Imagine that you lot had to create total out a questionnaire virtually the terminal awkward engagement you lot went on. And similar a shot imagine that it in addition to the i your engagement filled out, naturally, ran on an international newspaper’s website. Diabolical. Endlessly interesting. Impossible to read simply one.
Watching:
BoJack Horseman (Netflix) — Initially I assumed this was a crass, adult-oriented cartoon. To an extent, that’s accurate. What’s to a greater extent than accurate is that it’s an exploration of i formerly famous (horse)man’s midlife existential crisis. The vocalization cast includes Will Arnett, Aaron Paul, Amy Sedaris, in addition to whatever other delightful famous mortal you lot could want. It’s funny in addition to filled alongside Hollywood humor. Also, it volition devastate you.
Code: Debugging the Gender Gap — The tech manufacture has a huge variety issue, which includes a dearth of women inward non alone technical roles but leadership roles. Code is a non bad documentary that lays out a province of affairs that’s complicated, but non beyond rectification.
Catastrophe (Amazon Prime) — It’s non a novel concept — man child meets girl, man child gets daughter pregnant. What makes this six-episode comedy to a greater extent than than worth watching is how the rattling funny Rob Delaney in addition to Sharon Horgan play a dyad of strangers who made a babe in addition to similar a shot accept to brand a relationship. The refreshing affair is that they’re adults virtually it. Most of the time.
Listening to:
Nighthawks at the Diner by Tom Waits — I late snagged this 1975 alive Tom Waits album on vinyl. Sometimes I play it in addition to read along because the writing is then dense in addition to I don’t desire to miss a phrase. My favorite line: “The java wasn’t potent plenty to defend itself.”
Switched on Pop — My mid-20s arrived alongside a bursting love of podcasts. My most recent add-on is Switched on Pop, inward which a musicologist in addition to a songwriter dissect popular songs in addition to explicate how things similar a primal alter or sure enough chord progression communicate an emotion or message. All of that is to say, sometimes an episode ends in addition to you’re like, “Whoa. I had no stance Ke$ha was then complex.”
Pop Culture Happy Hour — PCHH is basically this characteristic (what they’re watching, reading, in addition to listening to) inward podcast form, delivered yesteryear NPR staffers you lot wishing were your witty, culturally literate friends.
Gilded Oldies yesteryear Cataldo — Gilded Oldies is 37 minutes of right-in-the-feels songwriting that volition delight anyone who loved Death Cab for Cutie i time upon a time.
