“Talk not to me of blasphemy, man; I’d strike the sun if it insulted me.”

Realized that Delany’s Nova is a literalization of this line of dialogue from Moby Dick. Fun considering his whole “SF as literalization” thing.

watching that Neighbors show on HBO and one of the ladies on it is a Starseed, and in one shot of her living room, she has a magic 8 ball on her coffee table. Really love the implications here.

marathon is quite good

i made so many concoctions at work today >.<

i considered skipping my philosophy reading group tonight to do some runs. that’s crazy.

marathon so good

Wikipedia's birthday logo overhwhelms me with an unbearable motherly instinct. Baby Globe i would do anything for you. i wouldn't dream of disabling you

the style of the animation , i mean.

i’m not huge on the style of it but i do appreciate it and like plenty of other things about it

i liked Guillermo del Toro’s Pinnochio better than his Frankenstein

it would be an extremely funny conceit to write a cyberpunk story where advertising was illegal. James Tiptree Jr. was on the level where she did it avant la lettre

The Veldt? Cyberpunk. The Girl Who Was Plugged In? Cyberpunk. Nova? Cyberpunk. The Stars My Destination? Cyberpunk. Fury? Oceanpunk (Cyberpunk).

every SF story written before 1970 is the first cyberpunk story.
