I don’t think he writes like a Reddit user 😂 but I see your point.

Books that use modern pop culture references I think won’t stand the test of time (See Ready Player One).

There’s definitely a segment of readers who geek out on the science and math that Weir frequently puts into his books.

He caters to those types of readers. I think the Martian movie just took his books mainstream.

It took some adjustment but he’s not a bad writer. He has profound technical depth. He actually built a very good character in Dr Grace as a brilliant but flawed individual. He keeps you on the edge of your seat a lot too.

He is mechanically descriptive. Don’t expect any Tolkien like descriptions.

I read the book and these appear to be character accurate if these two are who I think they are. I haven’t watched the movie.

Not a huge deal for me. They are minor characters. Weir uses characters from all over the world.

He did push a little on climate change crap. They go so far as to cause more climate change to slow down the effects of the dying light from the sun. Not sure if the movie addressed this or not.

I was excited when I heard about this. A new Pixar movie! Then I remembered it was 2026 and not 2009, and now I’m depressed.

Republicans talk big to their voters but then spite them when they think they aren’t watching.

I don’t care about the media either. I’ve been seeing through their bullshit for decades.

But we have to recognize that the media influences retards to vote the way they want and we have to fight that.

Yeah I’m at a point where I want the value of my house to return to what I originally mortgaged it for. Property taxes keep going up and up and up.

He has no shits to give. And people find that really refreshing I think. Lots of people are tired of walking on egg shells comedians.

Normally I’d say he’s not really that good at making jokes. He just makes observations on reality using the crudest and most honest terms.

She gave two reasons for being mad. The divorce bit. And abortion.

It really is confounding how brainwashed these bitches are. They are literally designed to have babies, care for them, and nurture them. Yet they are obsessed with killing and mutilating their own children.

Can’t see the forest for the trees is apt here.

ICE is removing the worst illegals. We can’t “see” the deaths removing them will prevent because then they won’t happen. But we can easily look at those deaths that have occurred.

Except, the weak politicians don’t want to talk about those loses.

Thinking Somalis have the same view as western nations is suicidal empathy.

Knowing they don’t have the same view isn’t a different kind of empathy, it’s observation of the obvious.

How are Trumps policies closer to what AWFLs want?

AWFLs want open borders. They think it’s our duty as oppressive white people to take care of all the third world shitholes because white people caused them to live on shitholes.

Trump has closed the borders. Perhaps you could elaborate on this?

Remember when everyone was kneeling for them?

It was like the virtue signaling Olympics.

I would’ve loved a spin off show about DS9’s humble promenade tailor.

Their secondary characters are light years better than slop treks entire cast.
