In her first book, How to Do Nothing, Jenny Odell wrote about the importance of disconnecting from the “attention economy” to spend time in quiet contemplation. But how can we reclaim our time? In order to answer this seemingly simple question, Odell took a deep dive into the fundamental structure of our society and found that the clock we live by was built for profit, not people. This is why our lives, even in leisure, have come to seem like a series of moments to be bought, sold, and processed ever more efficiently.

A first-world problem, immortalized..and why not!?
Revisado: 06-14-23
There's a lot to unpack here, and I don't know where to start.
The perspective is empowering and fresh.
However:
It would be awesome if this book applied to a broader portion of the populous. There's no reason in today's world of automation for people not to live at a higher standard. There's also a fair bit of past problems still affecting the poorest/downtrodden communities (especially those of color). Gentrification, and slumlords have ensured the price of entry to the "middle class" is almost a joke of unattainability to 34%, or more, of the population in the "greatest country" on earth.

Having barely escaped the final battle for Reach against the vast alien alliance known as the Covenant, the crew of the Pillar of Autumn, including Spartan John-117 - the Master Chief - and his AI companion Cortana, is forced to make a desperate escape into slipspace. But their destination brings them to an ancient mystery and an even greater struggle.

an audio account of an epic game...
Revisado: 09-11-20
the biggest detraction from this review is the severe amount of abnormal audio volume in this recording. frequently the reading goes into hushed tones, only to be followed by burst of unnervingly loud, and abrupt, fits of poorly equalized shouting.

Listen before watching the new Picard "10-part movie". A well read story that evokes strong emotions.

TNG antics, excellent imagery, well placed in cannon, and read with excellent attention to situations and personalities. I only wish it was longer.
