What's happening right now?
This is a /now page, which means it's a place you can come to see what I've been up to recently: what I've been reading, watching, listening to, and so on.
Sometimes, you'll see that I've rated something. I owe my rating system to Michael Burkhardt's original system, although it appears he's changed the way he rates things since then. Anyway, this is the gist of what I mean when I rate things:
| Stars awarded | Verdict |
|---|---|
| 0.5 | Abysmal. No redeeming qualities. |
| 1.0 | Terrible. Pretty much garbage. |
| 1.5 | Bad. Just plain bad. |
| 2.0 | Poor. Some redeeming qualities, but not enough to make it worthwhile. |
| 2.5 | Mediocre. Just as much wrong as right. |
| 3.0 | Decent. Worthwhile, but nothing particularly special. |
| 3.5 | Good. Solid and very enjoyable. |
| 4.0 | Very Good. Really enjoyable—very little to criticise. Or maybe no problems, just not an instant classic. |
| 4.5 | Great. Top shelf, possibly a classic. |
| 5.0 | Excellent. The best of the best! |
Currently reading: Delicious in Dungeon, Vol. 2 by Ryoko Kui
“With the possibility of starvation as a constant companion, Laios's party continues advancing deeper into the dungeon. The adventurers have made it to the third floor, but only rotting zombies, ghastly spirits, living paintings, and golems await them—all of which are absolutely inedible. The party has come this far by adapting and learning how to live off the dubious bounties of the dungeon. But how will they manage when even the meanest monster won't make a decent meal?”
