A coworker asked what season of Doctor Who they should start with, and I realized I’ve been training for this moment for my entire life.

TV update: We’re caught up with The Mandalorian (including The Book of Boba Fett), and watched Kenobi.

Also watched The Owl House, which the kids love dearly and Meghan and I definitely enjoyed, and are partway through season 2 of Avatar: The Last Airbender, which we have more mixed feelings about.

To get to the point, though, Meghan and I watched the first two episodes of season 12 of Doctor Who, the first time we’ve watched it since the Before Times.

Finished reading You Deserve a Tech Union by Ethan Marcotte. I’ve needed to pace myself with this, because I keep getting mad about my job and the industry as a whole. Even though the point of the book is to inspire and mobilize unionizing, I’ve ended up disheartened. (This will pass.)
