"rereading as a read-aloud to partner who has only seen the movie. what the hell is the horrific fatphobic crap in the introduction? fictionalized William Goldman is a horrific beast to his son. ironically for a book about the reader skipping the bits that suck, I absolutely skipped over the gnarly gross comments about his son's weight. what the hell. unnecessary to the plot and really unkind."

Merlin Sheldrake
“A mycelial network is a map of a fungus’s recent history and is a helpful reminder that all life-forms are in fact processes not things. The “you” of five years ago was made from different stuff than the “you” of today. Nature is an event that never stops. As William Bateson, who coined the word genetics, observed, “We commonly think of animals and plants as matter, but they are really systems through which matter is continually passing.”
Merlin Sheldrake, Entangled Life: How Fungi Make Our Worlds, Change Our Minds & Shape Our Futures

Frank Patrick Herbert
“The thing the ecologically illiterate don’t understand about an ecosystems is that it is a system…that’s why the highest function of ecology is the understanding of consequences.”
Frank Herbert, Dune

Naomi Klein
“The very idea that we, as atomized individuals, even lots of atomized individuals, could play a significant part in stabilizing the planet's climate system or changing the global economy is objectively nuts. We can only meet this tremendous challenge together, as part of a massive and organized global movement.”
Naomi Klein, On Fire: The Case for the Green New Deal

“We are about to sacrifice our civilization for the opportunity of a very small number of people to continue to make enormous amounts of money. We are about to sacrifice the biosphere so that rich people in countries like mine can live in luxury. But it is the sufferings of the many which pay for the luxuries of the few.”
Greta Thunberg, No One Is Too Small to Make a Difference

Margaret Atwood
“The floods, the fires, the tornadoes, the hurricanes, the droughts, the water shortages, the earthquakes. [...] Why did I think it would nonetheless be business as usual? Because we’d been hearing these things for so long, I suppose. You don’t believe the sky is falling until a chunk of it falls on you”
Margaret Atwood, The Testaments
