Rate anything. See the pattern.
Rate five things you know, from any shelf. Your archetype shows up in about a minute, and gets sharper with every log.
Films, series, books, albums, games. Skip anything you haven't met.

A taste fingerprint: fourteen dimensions, read against every other Bud. Yours appears after a handful of ratings.

Not a genre label: how it moves, how it feels, what it asks of you. Every film, series, book, album and game is read on the same fourteen scales, each in its own terms (a record's tempo and sound, a game's challenge and world), and your profile is matched against them.
A procedural that turns into a sermon and somehow gets better for it. That box.
Mostly about the story, comfort.

Not a crime show; a study of institutions eating the people in them, one season per institution. The fourth is the best thing television has done.
Mostly about the story.
Tartt tells you who died on page one and you spend five hundred pages hoping you are wrong about why. Overlong in the middle and I did not care.
Mostly about the story, the pace.
Popcorn science fiction with a heart. Rocky is the best alien in decades because the book lets him be a friend, not a puzzle.
Mostly about the performances, the story, comfort.
Learning Factory got under my skin. There is a warmth to it that never tips into sugar. Straight onto my favourites.
I finished Bad Thoughts and just sat there for a while. The setting stays sketched, so the people stay in focus. Already want to watch it again.
Mostly about the performances, comfort.
I finished Star Maker and just sat there for a while. The sheer scope of it is breathtaking. Believe the hype on this one.
Mostly about the story.
Kindness as a product. I wanted to like it more than the show wanted to be liked, which is saying something.
