Radiant Star by Ann Leckie. Enjoyed this! The way it's told by an unknown narrator isn't my favorite structure but all the characters and their intersections were interesting. Good cultural worldbuilding as expected from Ann Leckie.

In TV, I finished CBS Ghosts season 5. Fun, silly sitcom which is ideal for watching on my lunch break. I have to say it was insane that one of the episodes was about the house potentially being torn down to get replaced with a data center and then one of the mid-ep commercials was some PR attempt at reputation repair for data centers that was all 'data centers create jobs!' 'data centers aren't making your energy bills more expensive!'. Like, sure, dude.

Also watched Man on the Inside (seasons 1 & 2). Ily Ted Danson.

And many random movies:
-The Half of It. Sweet, gay, coming of age movie. Most highly recommended of this lot.
-Send Help. Not great but I respect it for being unhinged.
-GOAT, The Sheep Detectives, Remarkably Bright Creatures. Formulaic, feel-good movies with creatures.
-In The Grey. Insanely flat Guy Ritchie action film. Either the most extremely queerbaiting movie I've seen in a long time or Sid and Bronco were actually married.
