I write SFF and enjoy (sob) ALLLLL the rejection letters. I still write SFF though. My students think I am a gigantic dork. They are correct.

So I am going to say something about romance as a genre.

A lot of people think that romance is ignorable because <insert thing they think about romance> and romance authors don't count because <insert thing they think about romance>.

This thread is not about whether you have to like romance.

Hey folks, I'm gonna start a new recommendation thread, and because I very recently did a huge thread of 50 indie game recommendations, it might be a little shorter, and I'll be aiming for NO OVERLAPS! Are you ready?

1. Look Outside

I'll be brief. Just play this immediately, trust me.

Good morning! I’m reading The Changeling by Victor LaValle. Just started it, but enjoying the craft on display so far!
Good Morning Blue Sky! I hope you’re all ok? Today I’m currently reading The Big Book of Cyberpunk Volume 2 edited by Jared Shurin. What are you reading at the moment?

It goes into that weird thing that genuine appreciation is somehow considered less intellectual than criticism but everybody is getting trained to be such a cynical unfeeling asshole nowadays that I find the smartest people often are the “hell yeah cool song/drawing/story/video” people

UBI would be great, actually.
"my least woke opinion is---"

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.

Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

Definitely true
one of the main reasons why The Expanse slapped so much.
We really need more scifi shows to focus on the ground. To show the daily lives of regular people in the dystopian futures they imagine. To do it without promising some grand adventure or revolution is going to fix things. To show the uncertainty and powerlessness of being born into such a world.

I am calling upon the people of Ireland to immediately begin construction of a thread on this site about how you or someone you know was roasted for a fashion choice. We need it.

All roasts must have come from Irish people *only*. Please respect this important rule, it makes a difference.

Every few months now I re-read this "Who Goes Nazi?" piece from 1941 and am blown away by how it captures the people we are dealing with 80 years later.
