Charlie Huston’s “Caught Stealing Trilogy” or “Hank Thompson Trilogy”. One of my favourite modern noir pieces of work. A damn solid 3 book series about a guy who gets mixed up in shady stuff and can’t seem to find an exit.

I actually found and read the last book first, not knowing it was a trilogy. Which made me think it was trés cool how things in the past were referenced and added more weight to the main character/world. Turns out it was book 3 of 3. 🤪

All three made/make it hard to get into clunky modern pulp/noir style fiction since.

Sigh... I could do with more epic quests. Run from orcs, drink some dew, get my steps in.

Haven’t upgraded myself, so I just use the web client or the official iOS app so far.

Not to flagrantly self promote but that’s what I did with neocities. Used it as a static linktree alternative:

(Again, provided as an example, not “look at me”.)

Just never interact with anyone. Christ, it's not that hard people! (This comment doesn't count.)

Interesting. Will give it a look. Thanks!

Yeah. Surely they’ll listen, one of these years… 🤪 Might be a while yet now that they’ve got their fancy new “AI” toys to play with.

Always looking for an alternative…

Beans… I was afraid of that, had hoped my search skills were just letting me down. Thanks though!

Wholesome-ness on the internet? In this economy?!

So some frogs are just blurry and they cloned Bigfoot replacing the gaps in the gene coding with frog DNA. That makes sense. I get it now.
