The wind blows the pollen
All over and around me
Nature’s attempted murder
Twenty-nine years ago today. Still together.
Last night I finished an ARC of @steven_kotler’s “Last Tango in Cyberspace.” It’s a fun, engaging read of our near-future in the traditions of William Gibson, with heavy nods to his work, along with Blade Runner. Definitely recommended when it releases next month. 📚
I was afforded the opportunity via NetGalley to read an advanced reader copy of Steven Kotler’s Last Tango in Cyberspace. It’s a near-future science fiction novel in the vein of William Gibson’s later works, though there are nods to Neuromancer and his earlier works, as well as references to Blade Runner throughout. I found it fun and engaging, and definitely worth the read.
I have heard of Kotler’s earlier work, mostly non-fiction, such as The Rise of Superman, Stealing Fire, Tomorrowland, and others, but I have never read these before. That will likely change having finished Last Tango in Cyberspace.
Lion Zorn is a new kind of human, an empathy tracker. His skills allows him to feel the future, spotting trends before they happen. He makes a living giving companies a yes or no about the possible futures they are working on. Lion is hired by a multinational conglomerate named Arctic to help with the possible launch of a new kind of pharmaceutical, but he quickly finds himself investigating a possible murder while ducking the very latest in cutting-edge surveillance.
4/5 phins, recommended

Alright, everyone hurry up and go see Avengers: Endgame so we can talk about it.
I thought this appropriate attire for this evening’s premiere.
If you missed it earlier in the month, there’s a new episode of The Empowered Parent Podcast out, where we talk about incorporating play into everyday.
Finally, a 2020 ticket I can get on board with.
