Hi! I'm Max, @mhcovill. I think the best thing I've read during the pandemic is The City We Became by N.K. Jemisin. I loved her Broken Earth trilogy, but this is a Fantasy novel with concepts that are easier to pick up. Highly Recommended. I'm on the lookout for some new opportunities, so thanks a bunch for starting this Jordan.
Hey there! I'm Morgan, on twitter @morganmudway. Best thing I watched during the pandemic was OK KO: Let's be Heroes. It's basically everything I could want in a cartoon. It's silly, it's funny, but also tells a warm story and has GREAT animation. I can't sing it enough praises.
Reading: The Tiger by John Vaillant; The Light Brigade by Kameron Hurley; Song of Solomon by Toni Morrison; This is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone
Watching: Raised by Wolves on HBO Max; The Speed Cubers on Netflix; The Dungeon Run on caffeine.tv
Listening: Taylor Swift’s Folklore; Grateful Dead and Dead & Company; and a lot of low fi chill-hop; Mike Birbiglia’s new podcast Working it Out is very good, too.
And I’m Brandon (@brandonltenney on Twitter); I’m a writer. Poetry at brandonleetenney.com and I’m writing a novel bi-weekly on Patreon. And I may be in need of a motion graphics designer for a comedy project soon on the screenwriting edge of my writing career spectrum. Thanks for this, Jordan!
My sibling and I are currently watching Great Pretender on Netflix, and the first two episodes have been really great. Otherwise, we got into Hamefura aka "My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom!". We don't usually watch isekai anime (and especially not harem animes :/ ), but this one is actually super charming. Newsletter also said to drop your Twitter handle, so I'm @kobanya_kana . :P
I've watched a lot of TV over the last seven months (though not as much as I could have considering how planted I am to my couch!). It's hard to pick *the best* because it's pretty varied, but the thing that's given me the most stupid joy is "The Toast of London" starring Matt Berry. It's a high-low comedy with ultra-ridiculous plots and character names, just a burst of English absurdity. It's all on Netflix!
I'm also finally finishing up "The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay," by Michael Chabon, which is as incredible as expected, especially for a New York nerd like myself.
I know I'm super late to the game, but Avatar: The Last Airbender is by far the best thing I've watched both in quarantine and among the best things I've watched in my life. So much excellence in that show. @EmilyTyler_15
Hey hey! I'm Sabina @sabinahasnor on Twitter. Recently saw Broken Hearts Gallery and it was so charming and made me miss real life adventures with friends. If you like Palm Springs and want to watch a feel-good romantic comedy definitely check it out!
I can say that the best thing I've read during the pandemic has been Benjanun Sriduangkaew's Machine's Last Testament. And, important question here: Any idea if any of these jobs accept off location international workers? Couldn't really find anything in the Czech Rep and now can't find stuff in France and with the pandemic there is basically zero chance of relocating, so, yeah, would be good to know.
Hey! I'm Chris (@chris_page on Twitter). Best thing I've read so far in the pandemic is The Only Good Indians by Stephen Graham Jones. Just finished re-reading The Road by Cormac McCarthy, and am now re-reading Jurassic Park as a palate cleanser.
For watching? My wife and I are currently bingeing the hell out of Cobra Kai on Netflix, and watching Community (her first time through, my second)

Hi! I'm Birdee, @BirdeeBlake and the best thing I've watched so far during the pandemic is a tie between Umbrella Academy and Carole and Tuesday.

Update: They just took the Pokémon job down. Strange, it was very new! Apologies for that. Maiden voyage growing pains.
