in any case it is wild that voters just sent a huge message and a bunch of senate democrats are all, “it doesn’t look like anything to me”

Cyclonopedia feels like a fictional book that exists inside of a much better book, where a character comes across it to give them insight into some cosmic horror, instead of being something that’s worth reading on its own.

*philosophically charged story

I don’t know a lot about philosophy, but it kinda gave up on a narrative to be *really* philosophically dense. Maybe that’s what the author wanted to write. I wanted someone who had the skill to write a philosophically charged. Like The Stranger or The Dispossessed.

Such wasted potential tbh
