I am hungry, but I can't eat. by lamabop in c/adhd@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Yeah like nothing stops me from eating. Nothing. Ever. Hideous gastro, vomiting, diarrhoea, mouth surgery, nothing has ever ever dampened my appetite.

And maybe a proceeding panel where the dude in the suit is instructing a bunch of third world and/or prison workers to build the bridge for him, then immediately shoots them all too?

If you're old enough to remember, it's a little unsettling and strange. by lamabop in c/justpost@lemmy.world

Don't worry, you already are :)

Who do you consider a Great Author of the last 50 years or so (first well-known work after 1970)? I'd like to get a feel for who's who in modern literature. Any language/culture. Fiction only. by lamabop in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

The problem I had with Vinge's Sky series is that the first book is so, so amazing. Like wonderfully amazing concepts that I wanted to read all about, so I immediately went and read the other 2.

Book 2 is ok but crap compared to book 1.

And book 3 sucks.

Neither book 2 or 3 explore any of the interesting concepts from A Fire Upon The Deep, and I wanted so, so much more, and it just left me deeply disappointed.
