MUSiC anD SHeeT! / Re: What Are You Listening To Right Now?
« on: June 22, 2023, 06:06:45 am »
Not sure if there's any metal heads here, but King Gizzard just put out a new metal album and it's my favourite training album of all time.

'PetroDragonic Apocalypse; or, Dawn of Eternal Night: An Annihilation of Planet Earth and the Beginning of Merciless Damnation'

Check it out, PRs guaranteed.

i couldn't believe how good dune was. i'd tried and failed to start reading it several times and in retrospect have no idea why it didn't take. it rules.

remembrance of earth's past trilogy i enjoyed, although it's pretty sexist. but yeah holy shit cixin liu's imagination is on fire. extremely cool weapons and other tech in the later books.

if you're into spec fic, another brilliant one i read relatively recently is a canticle for liebowitz.

Agreed, dune is awesome. Found the new film surprisingly good if you haven't seen it, excited for the second.

Yeah I gather earths past trilogy has been called out quite a bit for its sexism.

Cool I'll check the recommendation out!

May start logging physio stuff so I can keep tabs now its becoming a little more structured and feels more like exercise

Rom gains - now able to get a full rotation on a bike, probably at 90 degrees albeit a slight cheat with hip rise, certainly not an option for cardio yet.

Also back at work this week on a graduated return...mixed feelings!

i was gonna say, what about swimming? too soon for freestyle or even using a kickboard to keep it really steady?

Not cleared for submersion from a wound care point of view yet unfortunately but soon it will be an option. I'm not a great swimmer (especially freestyle) but I may get a few lessons to brush up and then who knows, maybe I'll do a triathlon ha.

Physio today, started to load things up a little with some bodyweight quarter squats (assisted - crazy how weak it is lol) overall happy with progress though.
