Jon Green @jonmgreen.bsky.social · 07/10/2026So I sat down to work on my 2027 reading list, just to jot down a few things I wanted to make sure I got to; and I somehow have mapped out what I’m going to read for the entire year. So far a lot of medieval lit, early 20th century SFF, and books I used Sparknotes for in Highschool. 131

Jon Green @jonmgreen.bsky.social · 17/08/2026I know that so many others have already said it, but I’m still baffled that in #Metroid Prime 4, a series about isolation and exploration, they decided it would be good to give a companion who tells you where to go and Will. Not. Shut. Up. Absolutely baffling choice #Prime4 100

Jon Green @jonmgreen.bsky.social · 24/06/2026I’m torn. On the one hand, I don’t care about football/soccer, and I desperately want to get some sleep. On the other, this may be the only time in my adult life Scotland is in the World Cup, so it’s worthwhile to find a pub and watch an 11pm match. 110
