A Series of Unfortunate Events

Last week I was ill for two days, which involved fever and a soar throat, but also watching the first season of A Series of Unfortunate Events on Netflix. Here’s my thoughts.

At this moment, the Voyager 1 space probe is the human-made object that’s farthest from Earth. It’s traveling at a whopping 62,140 kilometers per hour away from the sun. How did it get there?

Also, it will take another month or so to soldier on through the last few episodes and my scathingness is now fresh.
