Looking for some book recommendations:

Trying for some non-military based space opera. Some recent ones I've enjoyed are Annihilation Aria by Mike Underwood, the Wayfarers series by Becky Chambers, the Golden Age of the Solar Clipper series by Nathan Lowell, and not sure if it counts as space opera quite but get the same feeling in Mary Robinette Kowal's Lady Astronaut books.

Thoroughly enjoying Foundation, based on the Isaac Asimov classic which I read as a youth.
It's about galactic empires, so an easy sell to me but I'm thoroughly on board with where they've taken the source material.
We are onto the second season now, already I'm telling me wife I could be a better Emperor of the Galaxy because I do the dishes, and none of those guys do.
Keep it real fellow Space gods, do some chores.

An extremely detailed diagram of the history of Science Fiction. The diagram has a rather monstrous aspect, with tentacle-like roots and branches. On the upper left corner are found the roots of the diagram: Fear and Wonder, giving way to Animism and Legend. Other portals into the diagram are Philosophy, Art, Exploration and Observation. These roots converge and possibly interact with other concepts such as the Enlightment, Science, Utopias, Romantic Movements. Important science fiction works, authors and genres emerge on the way, amidst a vast quantity of other entries: the Gothic Novel, Frankenstein, Jules Vernes, H.G. Wells, Edgar Allan Poe, Science Adventure, Fantasy Adventure, Alice in Wonderland, Weird Tales, Pulp Magazines, Astounding Science Fiction, Galaxy Magazine, H.P. Lovecraft, Sword+Sorcery, Modern Horrror, Isaac Asimov, Philip K. Dick, Dune, Space Opera, Cyber Punk, Star Wars, Alien, Terminator, 2001 Space Odissey, Star Trek, Battlestar Galactica, Total Recall, J.R.R. Tolkien, Dracula, Metropolis, King Kong, Aldous Huxley, and so on. A timeline is indicated on the upper and lower boundaries of the diagram.
