Well shit. Just saw this:
Amazon’s Culture TV Series No Longer in the Works

Clever lead-in from the article: “They did it. They canceled Culture.”

Ian M. Bank’s Culture series is one of my all-time favorite book series, by one of my all-time favorite writers. It would have made a fantastic TV series, along the lines of The Expanse.

Also, I hate the new WordPress block editor. It’s now forced upon WP users unless you spend $300 for a plugin that disables it. Something that would have taken me seconds (creating this small post) now takes me quite a while fumbling around in the new (worse) UI. Thanks, WP – a perfect lesson in how to disrespect your users.
