Good things about today:

- I've started catching up on the last few episodes of TAZ: Amnesty and they're delightful. Every time I take a break from Amnesty, I forget how much I enjoy it until I start listening again.

- I am wearing a dress with dinosaurs on it, which is obviously the greatest possible garment. (Well, no - the greatest possible garment would be some kind of voluminous necromancer-style robe with dinosaurs on it. But this is pretty close.)

- Katie and I are going to PodCon in Seattle this coming weekend, so I have spent part of today deciding which bits of it I most want to attend and I am excited.

Amnesty is a little slower and less...immediately funny than Balance was, I think partially because it's more grounded in real world things. I like it, but I prefer when I have a large chunk of it and can spend more time with the characters, rather than listening whenever a new episode comes out.

The overwhelming emphasis on humour in Balance actually made it really hard for me to get into it -- I liked the ending parts best, because that's when they really doubled down on character as the important thing (The Suffering Game was very cool, even though it was hard!) -- so Amnesty sound like it's probably more my thing than Balance in that regard, even if I tend to like things set in the real world a little less than things in fantasy/sci-fi ones. I'm not surprised it's a good show for bingeing, either; I felt the same about Balance.
