I do think that about the USA actually, yes.

I mean, you need to charge the battery so you might as well update it while you’re doing that.

Whatever, Nancy.

How is that an answer? They said they only do it if they have the money, so why?

That Nedry drawing on the wall there is awesome.

What if I want to see a cat twice?

Dresden Codak. That’s a name I haven’t heard in a long time.

I will not be a party to such silliness!

That’s how adaptations work. They change stuff around.

Yeah, about half actually.

Also the whole idea behind Trump Derangement Syndrome. Unsurprisingly, those fuckers can’t even be original in their awfulness.

I thought those were icicles for a while there.

Actual what?

Nah, the other way around. Facebook account used to be a requirement years ago, but they dropped it pretty soon.

I would imagine not at all given that you don’t need a facebook account for Quest and the headset doesn’t count as social media.

Gideon the Ninth. Very different, very fun.

I didn’t like Ancillary Justice that much. I loved some of the themes and how the world works, but narratively it felt like it was always pushing too hard to be dramatic. I think I’ll finish the rest of the series at some point, but it’s not quite for me.

Ah, no. You want wine with that.

We don’t write the H there in my native Czech and I’m very hungover today, so I apparently fucked it up twice. Interesting that I did write “theodicy” correctly (I hope)

I sometimes catch myself writing “Kanada” instead of Canada when not paying attention too.

We were actually talking about A Memory Called Empire by Arkady Martine. Can’t recommend it enough. It’s narrowly my favourite lesbian science fiction debut novel-turned-series about a galactic empire of 2019.
