Magnet Opinions
Jun. 28th, 2019 04:26 pmDreamwidth code push! We can @ now! It's so great! But they moved the 'post comment' button on the text box, and where I'd normally click to post, there's a quote button. So apologies to anyone who has received "" in comments from me. Was an accident!

Five things style fic for the two characters I felt the most about in S1. I'm not sure if it's spoilery for S2. I haven't seen Season 2 and it worked fine for me. And it's beautifully written, with joy and bittersweet moments, and an eventual happy ending.

I keep finding stories about giant bureaucracies and the little niches that people make inside them, and this is wonderful: an project manager in the Empire, dealing with prima donna engineers and sabotage and a mysterious annotator injecting themselves into her pilot testing program. It's so good, and also there are lol-cats.

Not a fic, but a poem! I found it when I was googling for a title for my Person of Interest Bear POV fic. I loved it a lot and I tried to work it in, but it didn't fit. So I will share it here: it's very New York-ish, very dog, if you know what I mean.
That three things meme:![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
kass gave me Pot, Glass, Magnet
Pot: Can't wait for it to be legal in Australia. I think it has a place in mental health, in cancer treatment, in chronic pain management. Probably more. I am looking forward to being able to dispense it (if that's how it unfolds.) I think it's stupid that we've ignored a good and therapeutic agent for so long.
Glass: Hm. I am hopeful that we're going to get a glass-specific recycling bin soon in my region. It's being trialled in a township not far from here. Keeping glass separate from other recycling is supposedly very effective at increasing the efficiency of recycling overall. This desire is entirely to do with saving the planet and nothing to do with my love of sorting things into things. *nods*
Magnet: Welp. I don't have many magnet opinions. I wish I'd done a little better at physics; perhaps I'd feel stronger about them. Okay, compasses are cool. Also cool is the fact that we probably have little compasses in our heads: The sixth sense: can humans detect the Earth’s magnetic field?
Yay, I have magnet opinions after all! If you'd like three things, please ask.
