Man Brian is lucky the water doesn't have obvious parasites. I certainly don't remember the overarching subplot about the mom's infidelity leading to the divorce reading this as a kid

dude wtf, I had no idea one of the plot points of Brave New World was the brave new world people visiting a reservation to be appalled at how backward and savage the native people are. I thought this was a story about the far future people being appalled at us people of the modern day??

Wow that Nghi Vo story needs to be read. A really complete and imaginative world for a short story. Very unlike anything I've read

Without knowing the date of theodores wife's death and assuming hes similar ages, he would have either been born after the war or been a child to young man in Germany

Not to be completely uncharitable because I get that stereotypes exist because they're often true and representive

I'm having mixed feelings about the portrayal of the boy who's on the spectrum. Like little hints of it is fine but this letter about being best in math being bullied etc feels like hitting all the greatest stereotype hits

I wonder how people identify each other. Maybe it's some sort of emotional frequency? Normal brains resonate with like and so forth?

Why are we with boys playing "prison"? I swear Le Guin's less a writer than just a scientist putting together a series of thought experiments

Man, the deer story is just so good. Just so succinct and efficient. Before you know it, you're tense and not even breathing, because Senna's effortlessly tapped some primal fear in you. Lenny's Japanophilia is silly and relatable, but his "we need to get the f out of America" is even more completely relatable

Oh man, is her husband's criticism secretly applying to her as an artist? Also I'm cursed with knowledge. My coworker said <spoiler>that Jane is a villain, and now I can't unsee that</spoiler>

Can't tell if the editor is right patronizing or full of bs

Just started but I love the writing. The phrasing is hilarious at times. Love the frank discussion of race, it's very private and casual in the way you can only use when you feel safe. Really dig the messy relationship between the couple and their neurodivergent children
