What did you blog about today?

Elon Musk's update on his new rocket, stood in front of the prototype. The guys manner while giving it suggest to me someone very uncomfortable with public speaking, although that may just be the weather there: Here's Elon Musk's Starship rocket update in full

I reviewed Michael Psellus' Chronographia:

Review: Fourteen Byzantine Rulers, by Michael Psellus

I wonder does that come under the near miss category? But that's just bloody annoying, that one.

I blogged this yesterday. But I'm posting it today. Like a rebel:

The Outer Worlds – Early Thoughts (PS4)

Yes, yes, pre-ordering games is generally a bad thing. But this game, by Obsidian (makers of Fallout New Vegas and Pillars of Eternity) lo...
