“Our species doesn’t operate by reality. It operates by stories. Cities are a story. Money is a story. Space was a story, once.

Or maybe the people kill the king because they don’t like his story and have begun to tell themselves a different one.”
― Becky Chambers, Record of a Spaceborn Few

“I had absolutely no interest in being somebody else's muse.
