Note: As usual, this post is coming a week later than it was written for Patreon. I'm back in good health now!
So one of the boons of being self-employed is that you can
just take a day off work whenever you want.
The reality is that you usually feel like you absolutely
must not do that.
So today I'm not feeling great. Nothing too serious, but I
might have phoned in sick in my previous job.
Can you see where this is going?
While I've been working as normal today, my mind has
crumbled at the task of writing a thoughtful post for the week, so instead you
can look at some pictures from a book that came in the post for me.
It's a reprinting of the Usborne Book of the Future
from 1979. A familiar sight, even though it predated my birth. Much has been
said about the charm of the 1970s vision of the future, but this book in
particular fills me with warm nostalgia.
I even reckon this makes for the decent seeds of a Traveller
supplement, or Ask the Stars if
you're fancy. I especially love the page on "Ristos".
So enjoy, and I'll be back on top form next week.
