Status Updates From To Hold Up the Sky

1st story done and already had to hold back tears at work. thank you liu cixin!

This was an uncomfortable chapter lol Cixin really made his position on NATO known

DNF - first story made me cry but the others kinda didn’t do anything for me

I’m thinking.. did Cixin Liu choose “ode to joy” because he knew logically that the western heads of state he was describing in the chapter would not know any non-western pieces?

Imagine not being able to hide anything from anyone… sometimes it feels like it is so right now, but I’m now appreciating being a nobody and having the chance of hiding my secrets. This mirror age is very scary

Espejo

Mi relato favorito hasta ahora, me encantó el planteamiento de un cálculo universal para todo lo sucedido, el increíble poder de una casi omnisciencia, una herramienta que nunca debería estar en manos de la humanidad y que un poder digno de los dioses se debería dejar en el plano de lo imaginario.

Contracción

He visto que al autor le gusta este ámbito fatalista de la ciencia, de cómo el fin del mundo llegará, y en este caso el inicio volverá.

That was a nightmare to read, ngl

Welp. I don’t know what to say about this story. Pretty sad but also confusing, because it got deep into mining stuff and I didn’t understand much lol
