Watching: Season 2 of Jane the Virgin. I said to a friend that my favorite character was Rogelio, and he said "Rogelio is my second-favorite character after the narrator," and I realized, yes, same here. Also watching Jon Bois's sports history/analysis videos which are, among other things, worth watching as vidding experiments.
Listening: re-listening to Cabin Pressure for pleasure, and listening to Pete Seeger stuff like "Tomorrow Is A Highway" for energy, and to the Tron: Legacy soundtrack for work background music. Also, MetaFilter Music just led me to a fun poppy synth song, "You're So Dangerous", that is now stuck in my head.
Reading: I'm partway through, like, ten books. I'm reading a lot of MetaFilter, mostly through the Popular Posts/Comments page, and Twitter, and I'm reading my Dreamwidth reading page -- sometimes I go to Dreamwidth Latest Things to find new people to subscribe to. Also I'm rereading Maureen McHugh's China Mountain Zhang again. I love that book. The interiority, the attention to the way people act when they're trying to be more decisive than they feel, the compassion, just so good.
