So, the lying liars lied again. At least they are staying on brand...

If they haven't realized that yet, they are somehow even more gullible than the people who voted for 47 "for the economy"

I want to read both... I just need to start right before a vacation or something to read a book that long!

The Murderbot books are so great! I think I've read the first one 4 times now.

It was a collaboration between Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone.

Yes, rely on the exploited people with no power or other options to report abuse by the people with all the power. That'll work ๐Ÿ™„

So... they need masks because they are cold? Why did they need them in LA last summer, then?

I'm pretty sure he's pulling those numbers out of his a$$.

I really liked Murakami's IQ84, I need to read more of his books!

If the actions of ICE are legal, why are they afraid of showing their faces? My local police officers and sheriff's deputies don't wear masks to do their jobs.

AOC on DHS Warehouses: I think every American should be alarmed. They are buildingโ€”and have builtโ€”a black box system that disappears people, both immigrants and U.S. citizens alike.

The only problem with #booksky scrolling is all the times I go "ooh, I want to read that!"

I can't ever choose a favorite, but one of the best I've read recently is This is How you Lose the Time War.

Three Men in a Boat is free on Project Gutenberg, and is really funny!

Fun literary rabbit hole:
I read a book of Connie Willis stories which included a reprint of a speech she gave, in which she said she got interested in sci-fi when she first read a Robert Heinlein in which the character was reading 3 Men in a Boat by Jerome J Jerome.

Three Men in a Boat is free on Project Gutenberg, and turns out to be really funny!

The disconnect is pretty jarring. There is a similar effect on a different horrific topic in Prophet Song by Paul Lynch. It was... hard to read.

I really liked it, but my wife hated it. I thought the understatement was part of the point, similar to Remains of the Day.

Every single one of his books has broken my heart. They are so good.

Nice! The Cixin Liu books are amazing, and I really liked Recursion. Dark Matter by Crouch is good, too.

Did she actually say "this isn't White enough for me"? ๐Ÿคฏ
Aren't these the same a$$holes who will claim over and over that "America is not a racist country"?
