Books I read in 2025 - 34 paper, 44 audio…all paper books came from #thriftstore or #antiquestore - read a ton of new authors (for me) and a lot of “not my genre” type books - was a great year & I’ll definitely do this plan again!! #booksky 📚💙

#C64 #Commodore64 community: have any links to some cool programs I can type old school style into & save for my Commodore? Had some books in the 80s and can probably find them but figure there might be some better ones nowadays…thanks everyone!!

Anyone read these? Have seen a ton of them in antique/thrift stores and had just mention to Brandy, my wife, that if I ever found the “A” one I would pick it up…found at a thrift store up here in Maine (on vacation) yesterday…I’ve never seen the low letter (A, B, C, etc.) ones before… #BookSky 📚💙

Started up The Westing Game by Ellen Raskin today…anyone remember this from childhood? It was a Newbery Winner from 1978. I think I read it in early 80s but don’t remember anything about it…it’s a whodunit that you get to play along with - don’t spoil it if you remember it! #BookSky 💙📚

Finished it tonight - great insight into his life & struggled & survival of being a teen idol!! Was a huge fan of Soldier Of Love 1989 so reading about how it almost didn’t happen was fascinating!

@fuzzweed.co.uk @logrus.uk and anyone else in the #C64 #Commodore64 world Have there been any modern tower defense games made for the C64? I know this wasn’t really a game style/type back in the day but was wondering if any existed now. Thanks!

Started this one fresh yesterday…I really liked this one from 1987 but never completed it…maybe I got busy at 15 and decided different things were priority 🤣 #C64 #Commodore64 #Commodore

Forgot how tedious it can be - will save for another day - still love it, though, and can’t wait to get back after it!

I’m back, Baby!! Just bought a Commodore 64 and was testing it quickly on the TV to be sure it worked - seems like my original games still work so I’ll be back in the 80s games soon - can’t wait!! #Commodore64 #C64

When you can complain about a phone icon for a music app, you have too much privilege, too much money, too much free time…something…geez… #Spotify

Started this one up a few days ago and just can’t put it down…Al Pacino is such a complicated person by his telling… #Booksky 📚💙 #AlPacino

Started this one up today…still have my original Thriller cassette from 1982 and did watch the Motown 25 special in 1983…pop music forever pivoted on that day… #MichaelJackson #BookSky 📚💙 #80s #Music #80sMusic

I’ve been listening to the Dungeon Crawler Carl series and it’s freaking hilarious but also a good story - just became aware of them a month or so ago but have read 5 of them…anyone else out there read these? #booksky 📚💙
