Great books! I have much respect for Ursula k. Le guin!

I just finished Anathem by Neal Stephenson! Man, what a banger of philosophy with a great narrative story to drive it. Wanted more space sci-fi so I’m currently reading Hyperion by Dan Simmons. Thoroughly enjoying it–intense read, though.

I’m not even a car person and that sounds nice. I’d join that sub!

Ah, one of my favorite ways to exist! Hope you find some answers.

I don’t know what this is, but it spooks me and man–I’d love to see it at scale. What are your impressions of it?

I just joined. I was a lurker and effectively banned. Honestly wish I would have done it sooner!
