Unexpected sats are always nice, but boy does it vex me when I can't figure out where they came from. 🤔
Escalating tension and stakes for the main character(s). Worry they can't get through it.
Gregg Hurwitz, in one of his Orphan X novels, has a multi-chapter action scene which starts in a hotel room and spills out into a busy city street, as our hero tries to clear a path for a mother to reach and rescue her child. It just keeps tightening the screws because you care about all 3 characters and the odds are brutal.
Absolutely virtuoso action and suspense writing.
This is one of my favourite tracks, but it seems to have gone completely under the radar. It started as a LoFi track then went AfroBeat on me. Maybe I should've eased up on the LoFi aesthetic.

Just saw your Michael Clayton post, so this might be a little too really real for your tastes. But it is wonderful.
The Wim Wenders film, Perfect Days, is a live action film much like this. About the everyday life of a Japanese cleaner. And the first film directed by a non-Japanese filmmaker to be nominated as the Japanese entry at the Academy Awards. Just wonderful.
Usually the protagonist. However, there's a thriller novel by Jack Higgins called Solo I first read as a teen and it stuck with me. The reason: Higgins gives you the back story of both protagonist and antagonist equally, they are both sympathetic and flawed and one isn't really the hero and the other isn't a villian, and yet they're headed for a collision because of an error in judgement that one of them doesn't realise the severity of. Absolutely brilliant, stayed with me, and held up on re-read.
Another like this is Grandmaster by Warren Murphy and Molly Cochran.
Just a reminder: If it’s not (end-to-end) encrypted, it’s public.

This is the way. And I was about to suggest this very thing.

To quote Ken Watanabe in King of the Monsters:
"Let them fight." 😉
This still stands, but if you're after a *much* cheaper user repairable phone, the HMD Fusion might fit the bill.

Same. During the live showcase, right at that moment, without looking, Mike Shinoda just points across at Emily, "here she is, this is it, here we go ..."
I am so here for Linkin Park 2.0. Bring it!
Wake up babe, new Linkin Park dropped.

When Emily goes hard at 1:38 - goosebumps. Every time.

Have some eye candy. Made in threejs. Would have been a lot easier in Blender, but I didn't have access to that.
Enjoy.

I looked at the photo before seeing your emoji and thought, "damn, those limes look weird!"
Ya’ll want Nostr Lyn to write a sci fi novel in whatever spare time she has, or get back to finance?
Broken Money was so good I'm genuinely curious to see what you could do with fiction. Even a novella or something.
Oh ... did I mention I loved Broken Money? 😉
Probably just dealing with a Godzilla sighting. Nothing to worry about. 😉
