stephen, in real life. @stephenmartin.io · 02/10/2026first time all year the running game looked to be a viable element of the offense, so, that helped a lot. 000
stephen, in real life. @stephenmartin.io · 21/09/2026It's been a while since i've posted my reading log. just finished Red Rising and am starting Golden Son. 011
stephen, in real life. @stephenmartin.io · 09/08/2026i was just thinking about the balloon yesterday when i saw mine. it’s gonna have some staying power! 010

stephen, in real life. @stephenmartin.io · 20/07/2026i'm just saying, you might wanna get a broomstick and a thumbtack. or, wait it out, see what happens. 010
stephen, in real life. @stephenmartin.io · 20/07/2026my kids game me this mylar mario for my birthday… in 2018. if it was sealed well, you might be waiting a while. 100
stephen, in real life. @stephenmartin.io · 04/06/2026there’s a romhack that lets you swap kongs anywhere. it makes the game so much less of a slog. 000
stephen, in real life. @stephenmartin.io · 20/05/2026i have finished dungeon crawler carl #8. that book refused to stop and take a single breath. i am ready for book 9 already. 120
stephen, in real life. @stephenmartin.io · 24/04/2026did you enjoy? the audiobooks are also spectacular, strong recommend. 110
stephen, in real life. @stephenmartin.io · 24/04/2026👀 hello, fellow crawler! you just starting the series? 100
stephen, in real life. @stephenmartin.io · 22/03/2026every time i see an old mac on marketplace, i stop myself from buying it. one day, i won't. they just look so cool. 011
stephen, in real life. @stephenmartin.io · 28/12/20252025 stacked. 52 finished. Not pictured: book 3 of the poppy war trilogy since i donated my paperbacks in anticipation of the 3rd book’s deluxe edition. 000
stephen, in real life. @stephenmartin.io · 10/12/2025it reads like a 1980s heel wrestling promo. read it again, but in macho man randy savage's voice. oooh yeeeeah. 010
stephen, in real life. @stephenmartin.io · 07/12/2025someday, @anyaustin.bsky.social will get around to kingdom come deliverance and we’ll finally get the economic analyses of fictional medieval bohemia that the game deserves. 000
stephen, in real life. @stephenmartin.io · 09/10/2025had to look up how jury fits in, and sure enough: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jury_Pr...en.wikipedia.orgJury Prize (Cannes Film Festival) - Wikipedia 0100
stephen, in real life. @stephenmartin.io · 07/10/2025i'm sorry but a 2000 mustang GT is not a "historical car". i am not OK with this. 020
stephen, in real life. @stephenmartin.io · 07/10/2025the driver of that vehicle deserves a swirlie. 000
stephen, in real life. @stephenmartin.io · 01/10/2025this video is like an alternate universe dankpods/garbage time where instead of "oi m8 what if we shoved vegemite in tony's gas tank?!", they actually, you know... fixed a car. 020
stephen, in real life. @stephenmartin.io · 27/09/2025i don't know much about much, but i do know that if genndy tartakovsky says "hey i wanna make an animated film about", you stop him right there, and say "yes, how much do you need." 020
stephen, in real life. @stephenmartin.io · 23/09/2025next up, the once and future king by t.h. white. i grabbed this while reading @levgrossman.com ‘s “the bright sword” earlier this year (which was amazing) and i’m in the mood to dive back into the arthurian thing so here we go. idk if i’ll read it in one shot or break it up into its component novels 020
stephen, in real life. @stephenmartin.io · 23/09/2025i pushed through because it was so short even though i was never really compelled to go read what happens next, but i bet if I had this book in high school, it probably would have become a defining part of my personality. probably better off that didn't happen. 000
stephen, in real life. @stephenmartin.io · 23/09/2025just straight pratchett style footnotes the whole way through. The sky above the port was the color of television, tuned to a dead channel.¹ ___ 1. Oh boy here we go ok so back in the day... 020
stephen, in real life. @stephenmartin.io · 23/09/2025seriously, every matrix movie, cyberpunk 2077, all of it, should have to start with a title card that just says "yeah so we aped our WHOLE shit from william gibson, so go read those books if this is your jam." but they probably need to put out a gen-z edition with footnotes. 110
stephen, in real life. @stephenmartin.io · 23/09/2025i finished gibson's 'neuromancer'. probably the book i enjoyed the least this year, but that was mostly because it was so hard to remember every time a cyberpunk trope happened, that this was where that was all invented. basically the holy scripture of cyberpunk. 220
stephen, in real life. @stephenmartin.io · 08/09/2025Had a 3+ hour flight today and time alone at a hotel, so... I finished Katabasis by RF Kuang (only had like 15 pages to go) and I also had plenty of time to read all of Starter Villain by @scalzi.com (who has quickly become one of my favorite authors). Both were different kinds of fantastic. 010
stephen, in real life. @stephenmartin.io · 30/06/2025halfway through the year, not bad so far. 33 down, 1 DNF. 14313 pages, 80/day on average. 010
stephen, in real life. @stephenmartin.io · 23/06/2025with this game you can teach them about counting to 64, too! (although probably not in that version.) 000

stephen, in real life. @stephenmartin.io · 21/06/2025terry pratchett had this habit of writing a series of words so ridiculous that, before being written, had no business being placed in that particular order, but he did it anyway, to great success. 160
stephen, in real life. @stephenmartin.io · 07/06/2025due to some preorder shenanigans, i have an additional download code for mario kart world. happy to part with it for the $50 extra that the mario kart bundle cost me. 000
stephen, in real life. @stephenmartin.io · 04/05/2025oh and if you haven’t already go read the dungeon crawler carl series by matt dinniman. just finished book 5, book 6 hardcover arrives in 10 days, book 7 hardcover out in september, and he’s started on book 8. these are spectacular. funny but dark and getting darker. 040
stephen, in real life. @stephenmartin.io · 04/05/20251/3 of the way through 2025, 19 books completed, 1 book abandoned. 8611 pages read so far. the backlog grows, i keep finding stuff i wanna read. 000
