Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that doesn’t justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like a hippo
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

    I finally watched Dune 2 and it was better than expected. I found the first one forgettable for some reason but I’ll have to watch it again now.

    Also watched a few episodes of the 3 Body Problem. I read the books and this series does them justice.

      Oh 3 Body Problem is out? It’s been a while since I read the book but have been looking forward to seeing the series. Good to know it’s good!

        It’s excellent. I’ve spotted 3 Games of Thrones actors so far too. It’s made by the same showrunners.

          Well that comment was a rollercoaster. I was excited by “it’s excellent” and then deflated by “the same showrunners” because of what happened to GOT.

            I recently rewatched GoT for the first time. It’s taken me this long to make peace with the final few seasons. I enjoyed it more than I expected though. And don’t let it put you off the 3 Body Problem.

              I won’t, but I’ll be half expecting them to betray me.

              Tempted to wait until they have made the whole thing!
