Weekend Links

 Need some distraction from the cold wind outside and the fact that soooo much gift shopping needs to be decided??  I do!  (plus I just started writing a new book, which means Procrastination Station).  Here's a few things to read.  (Later this weekend, I'm going to try and post some of my favorite reads of 2025, so stay tuned...)
