Need to distract brain & chill before sleep. I have cold milk, a podcast ep & a calming game to play for a few mins. Otherwise brain will try to make me write things.

This is prob a bad plan, but it really is helping my headache. A little more Illya & Napoleon, but I am going to try to write & not get too diatracted. Though the ep I've put on does have some interesting 'roleplay' between Napoleon & Illya, which doesn't feel....entirely innocent.

A California winemaker is struggling to sell his Chardonnay ... so he's written a romantasy novella about it. The novella, unsurprisingly, looks awful.

I require medicinal, anti-headache entertainment...so it's an Illya heavy ep of Man From UNCLE, at low-ish volume.
Illya is particularly chatty and mysterious in this one. 🥰 And Napoleon is injured, so there at start & end, but not much in between.

Ah - now it's the glass hand ep. This will have to be last one, as need to sleep. But still have a bit of milkshake to finish & should try to get writing a little further on. Almost at the most important bit.

A new super intelligence episode, but can it beat the s1 super intelligence episode.
I'm going to say no, but only because the first one had McCallum & therefore I'm biased.
Besides, this dude is clearly more of a dick! 🤣

This ep has a 2d alien causing mayhem.
At first I thought it was an ep about Yorkshire, but the use of 'eck' in the title is apparently coincidental & not the accent breaking through!

I honestly don’t get the value of this company. They hoover up energy and water. Their product constantly gets things wrong and, in extreme cases, coaches people into suicide.
And it’s all built on what seems to be malicious and vast intellectual property theft.
What does OpenAI offer the world?

Right - s2, ep1. Soldiers flung through time. Set at start is a bit Star Trek TOS.
Oh dear - one of the soldiers has never felt love, which is a shame. He's a smoker, even though it's the future.
