Been in a bit of a reading slump but once again Stanislaw Lem and Ijon Tichy zapped me out of it. #SF #ScienceFiction

True. It’s a force to be reckoned with.

My favorite Floyds: Animals, The Final Cut, Meddle- in more or less that order. Obscured by Clouds & Atom Heart Mother also in the mix.

Every so I check to see if Iain Banks’ Excession or Inversions are available for e-reader so I can complete the Culture saga and today I am again disappointed. Guess I’ll have to reread the others. #booksky

Overall, I prefer β€œHey, here’s an extra hour of sleep” day to β€œYOU ARE ONE HOUR CLOSER TO DEATH MUHAHAHA” day.

Goddamn, the new Jason Isbell album is exquisite.

Indeed. That one packs a punch.

The idea of being powerless in the face of irrational demands from a powerful, amoral entity really resonates lately.

Apropos of nothing, but the story source of β€œsent to the cornfield” is the most terrifying I’ve ever read, and I’m something of a horror connoisseur. Bixby’s β€œIt’s a Good Life” gnaws at my (sub?)consciousness every day.

So I assume a new executive order will be dropping re: Cowboy Carter and Jimmy Carter.

GAN, underdog contender: DosPassos’ USA. Huck Finn, Grapes of Wrath also in the mix but I will always be loyal to Moby Dick.

I apologize. I’ve never been impersonated, it must be enormously frustrating. I’m sorry that you have to deal with this.

Kidding. I just reeeeeaaaalllllly want to read more Teixcalaan.

I wish I had known this before sending all that dough to the β€œhelp me finish Teixcalaan 3” fundme thing.
