First four seasons are all pretty good - but as OP mentioned Season 5 is trash

I sought of read it like a koan. It doesn't really have lot of narrative satisfaction - whilst certain elements are pretty cool. like the blue prints. But probably the most interesting plot device, which I felt 3 Body Problem borrowed was the concept of 'lineage hibernation' - which is also touched on in the bibles tales of early longevity.

I don't think Canticle would make a great movie - it's really 3 stories. But did you know it was considered the main source for Fallout?

Player of Games has always been one of my favourite books. Would be great with big caveat - If done by someone who understand and appreciates the Lore

Story in Paper today about how the 2nd part of the trilogy was already filmed but has been held back due to underwhelming box office of the first installment. And Costner put a lot of his own money in to it. They also panned the movie. But I take MSM reviews with a grain of salt - https://www.news.com.au/entertainment/movies/new-movies/kevin-costners-horizon-2-pulled-after-debut-proved-huge-box-office-flop/news-story/5e6004bd36814bffce0434765b98f488

This Vanity project feels a lot like the Atlas Shrugged debacle

We played the game that is now commercially known as Balderdash(?) for years before it was released as a board game. All you needed was a dictionary and pens and paper. Really fun game and it taught you so many new words. no need to buy the game either all you need is a decent dictionary. Actually you just gave me an idea for another version of it but using Urban Dictionary. That could be fun

These articles and 'studies' basically just reinforce actual White Supremacy because they are just apologist towards inferiority, rather than pull people up they pull the top people down. "Equity".

Also Smithy - congrats you're now a mod ;)

My son was a pretty high tier CS:GO player and continued for a while with CS:2 but eventually gave it up completely due to issues you mention. Now he just plays Elden Ring and Dark Souls.

Aliens probably aren't as homogenous as we'd like to think

I'm on Oceania/Asian Servers for Most games. So mostly Japanese, who stay very quiet, but are usually good players. Then there's the 'other' asians - can't tell which from their retarded characters probably Thai - who I just mute. Thank fuck though, still 90% Australian/NZ players depending on game.
