📖 Ready Player Two (Ready Player One, Book 2)
The highly anticipated sequel to the beloved worldwide bestseller Ready Player One, the near-future adventure that inspired the blockbuster Steven Spielberg film. AN UNEXPECTED QUEST. TWO WORLDS AT STAKE. ARE YOU READY? Days after winning OASIS founder James Halliday's contest, Wade Watts makes a discovery that changes everything. Hidden within Halliday's vaults, waiting for his heir to find, lies a technological advancement that will once again change the world and make the OASIS a thousand times more wondrous--and addictive--than even Wade dreamed possible. With it comes a new riddle, and a new quest--a last Easter egg from Halliday, hinting at a mysterious prize. And an unexpected, impossibly powerful, and dangerous new rival awaits, one who'll kill millions to get what he wants. Wade's life and the future of the OASIS are again at stake, but this time the fate of humanity also hangs in the balance. Lovingly nostalgic and wildly original as only Ernest Cline could conceive it, Ready Player Two takes us on another imaginative, fun, action-packed adventure through his beloved virtual universe, and jolts us thrillingly into the future once again.⭐⭐⭐⭐

🎫 The Amateur (2025)
After his life is turned upside down when his wife is killed in a London terrorist attack, a brilliant but introverted CIA decoder takes matters into his own hands when his supervisors refuse to take action.
I hate it when politicians rationalize not supporting same sex marriage by falling back on "Well, the Family Code doesn't allow it." We know it's a barrier. And so we need legitimate political support to change the system to respect LGBT rights. The code isn't the Constitution!
If the law does not allow it, then change it. It is the job of a legislator, after all: to create new or to amend existing laws to fill the needs of the present.

ME A DECADE AGO: Superman is completely unrealistic. People would •never• just straight-up elect a comically evil billionaire to be president. ME NOW: Superman is completely unrealistic. They made Lex Luthor •way• too smart.

One idea floating around is for the PH Government to regulate social media platforms. This is funny. Implement Net Neutrality, this is a way to even out the reach of social media platforms by giving the same privileges (cheaper access) to platforms that don't peddle fake news. Another is for the government to deploy their own platforms and NOT be dependent on these fake news promoting social media platforms.
