I'm partway through Red Rising per a recommendation from a friend. Taking a break from my charge through all of Brandon Sanderson's works to appreciate some different writing styles.

Seems like a small thing, but I really like Pierce Brown's use of the true first person perspective. It gives the book an almost poetic feel and its not something I've seen used very often in fiction.

Matt Carriker (Demolition Ranch, Off The Ranch). stopped watching right around when they started their in-house merch business and stopped being even remotely relatable. The reason I watched in the.first place was because he always seemed so down-to-earth and actually made interesting content.

Major respect for him stepping off the platform a year or so ago. Seems to have some priorities straight I guess.

I'll second osprey packs and nalgenes even if its just the hiker in me. I bought an osprey parsec in like 2012 mostly fir school use. The only reason I replaced it last year is because it didn't suit my needs for a backpack anymore. The only thing that ever broke was part of a buckle and even then the buckle still functioned. Beyond a little wear and tear, the bag is still 100% functional today. Easily one of the best things I've ever purchased.

And the only reason I've replaced a nalgene is because I dropped one in a river and wasn't able to retrieve it.

The math isn't even right unless I'm missing something.

3.9" x 4" sheets = sq in per sheet

15.6" x 224 sheets = 3494.4 sq in per roll

3494.4 / 12 = 291.2 sq ft per roll

not sure where 776.5 even came from
