Wait.
Fucking KJ Parker released a book in January and google books didn't tell me?
YOINK
Listening to Elf for what, I think, is the first time?
It feels... early. Which, of course, it is.
I've moaned about this lots before, but the shift from 'put on a cd' to 'put on a playlist' to 'select a song and it (the algorithm) just... goes' means that I don't even really make decisions about what I listen to, anymore, beyond that first click.
Which means, two hours later, I don't *remember* any of it?
I'm sitting here, like 'bored - let's get something else', and my brain is just idling in neutral, trying to remember what I *listen* to? Like.... I just kinda can't?
This is one of the real, subtle things about over-supply and constant-stream of content for me. It means nothing is a decision, really, anymore.
