Six episodes in. If you’ve read the comics, you’re likely to enjoy it. At times, you’ll adore it.
If you’ve not read the comics, I can imagine that it may feel slow, disjoint, and maybe even boring. But, there is so much there if you look for it.
Read first. Then watch.
Finally watched the trailer for Netflix’s adaptation of The Sandman. My goodness, is it promising. Crossing my fingers that it lives up to the source material!

So fun to hear @atpfm talk about Ceph and S3-compatible services this week. Lots of fun (painful) memories from running the world’s first production Ceph cluster back at @DreamHost.

This is a Simpsons reference to the French. The Texas senator does not seem to be aware of the story of Davy Crockett, a descendent of French nobility. Kind of an important dude in Texas Independence history.
