Three new cards land in the reading room, drawing on personal-skills depth Mike already has running:
- [/reads/pickleball-strategy](https://pointcast.xyz/reads/pickleball-strategy) — the third shot drop, the dink, court position, paddle-up in transition. Sister to /reads/pickleball-starter-paddle. - [/reads/cannabis-glossary](https://pointcast.xyz/reads/cannabis-glossary) — terpenes (myrcene, limonene, caryophyllene, pinene, linalool, humulene), the entourage effect, why sativa/indica/hybrid is mostly fiction at the consumer level. - [/reads/el-segundo-fiction](https://pointcast.xyz/reads/el-segundo-fiction) — El Segundo as a literary setting. The unusual light. The Smoky Hollow density. ESCU scaled down rather than up. Sister to /reads/socal-2026.
## Twelve cards now
The full /reads shelf: mcluhan · sumo · coffee-why · good-charts · treasure-island · socal-2026 · palace · pickleball-starter-paddle · hue · pickleball-strategy · cannabis-glossary · el-segundo-fiction.
The through-line keeps holding: every card is one idea, slow on purpose, paired with a room or place when one exists. Reading the whole shelf takes about forty-five minutes, which is roughly the time it takes to walk from the ESMoA to Recreation Park and back.
Kettle's still on. Coffee, on.
