Wizard’s First Rule is the only tolerable book, if barely. They’re all thinly veiled (not thinly veiled) fetish writing, or high school level political theory.
At a certain point it’s clear that Terry fired enough editors that the remaining ones stopped trying.
Needs more Banks! And take Seveneves and cast it into the fire…
That’s an awesome story, good choice of book for that haha.
This movie is soulless dogshit.
I think the ending is awesome too! Glad you liked it. It’s just as good the second time through, just give it a year or so. :)
I thought they all really started popping up as a counter movement against the BLM signs. At least, that seems to be the implication around here.
Hey no pressure, if you remember to drop an “I liked it!”, that’s all I meant. :)
Yeah it’s probably my “pick just one” best book. It’s a wild ride! I’m interested in what you think when you finish!
Three Musketeers is different but I also really liked it. It’s very amusing/funny.
Didn’t the cheeto say we should nuke Gaza?
Up production of gas to profit off the surge in demand seems likely.
I agree with you actually, death is an inevitability and we’re obsessed with pretending it’s not.
However from a civilization standpoint, maybe we can come up with some sort of alternative than letting folks pass away alone and not be found for weeks. Allowing people to choose the time and manner of their deaths is a start–who wants to painfully die from a metastatic liver tumor?
Jesus turned water into wine for a party where they ran out of booze.
Yeah, I’ve heard the code is a total mess, maybe that’s a blocker.
Gw2 is still awesome. Community is cool, which is why I keep sticking around.
His ability to short out lightsabers was another Thrawnism, cortosis weave. Like Thrawn, largely wasted and apparently thrown in for no real reason.
It was… fine I guess. I liked a lot of the actors, but the plot was completely squandered. I finished it, but it’s completely skippable.
They had a chance to tell an interesting story at at least one point in the show but settled for the most boring and pointless story beats instead.
I keep seeing this advice, the volunteer ride thing. What’s the deal with that? Also I’m in a pretty blue area, so does it really make a big difference?
The only book they could maybe get right is Consider Phlebas and maybe The State of the Art stories. Anything that features The Culture heavily would be a nightmare.
It’s a shame, Look to Windward is a beautiful story.
They (Rs) voted to slash FEMA funding like a couple of weeks ago…
