Shane Carley shared a highlight from
Borne by Jeff Vandermeer
Apparently we’d been richer than we thought, to suffer such continual diminishment and still be alive.

“ON D-DAY, THE USS TEXAS BATTLESHIP INTENTIONALLY FLOODED PART OF ITS HULL IN ORDER TO TILT THE SHIP TO THE CORRECT ANGLE TO REACH GERMAN TARGETS FARTHER INLAND.”
Shane Carley, True Facts That Sound Like Bull$#*t: World History: 500 Preposterous Facts They Definitely Didn’t Teach You in School

“John Lennon signed the paperwork formalizing the band’s split while staying at a Disney World hotel.”
Shane Carley, True Facts That Sound Like Bull$#*t: 500 Insane-But-True Facts That Will Shock and Impress Your Friends

“TRUE OR FALSE: JULIUS CAESAR WAS ONCE KIDNAPPED BY PIRATES, BUT ESCAPED BEFORE HIS RANSOM COULD BE PAID. False. Not only did the Romans pay the ransom, but also Caesar was insulted by the pirates’ original request of 20 pieces of silver and demanded that they increase it to 50.”
Shane Carley, True Facts that Sound Like Bulls#*t: 500 Insane-But-True Facts That Will Shock And Impress Your Friends

“And, for an instant, she stared directly into those soft blue eyes and knew, with an instinctive mammalian certainty, that the exceedingly rich were no longer even remotely human.”
William Gibson, Count Zero

“You are right. I understood this myself when I read your novel The Time Machine. All Human conceptions are on the scale of our planet. They are based on the pretension that the technical potential, though it will develop, will never exceed the terrestrial limit. If we succeed in establishing interplanetary communications, all our philosophies, moral and social views, will have to be revised. In this case the technical potential, become limitless, will impose the end of the role of violence as a means and method of progress.’ Vladimir Ilych Lenin, in conversation with H. G. Wells”
Adam Roberts, Yellow Blue Tibia: A Novel

“A realist writer might break his protagonist’s leg, or kill his fianc’e; but a science fiction writer will immolate whole planets, and whilst doing so he will be more concerned with the placement of commas than with the screams of the dying.”
Adam Roberts, Yellow Blue Tibia: A Novel
