loving this book so far!

I havent loved the first few stories, they all feel basic and in some cases trite and heavy handed :/ ill keep reading cause i like the concept of friends for robots, and to see if the author has interesting ideas on this

this is starting to make me uncomfortable with how much i see myself in Fay

mostly this kinda feels like reading brainrot but still intrigues me

honeymoon - "It didn't seem like a bad choice." Really liked this one. A reflection of choice vs luck and the chaos of the world (the illusion of choice). Listening to this alongside mcr's paper kingdom leaks was actually scary. had me on the edge of my seat. need to be careful not to recount this to someone as if its a true story i read XD

going to france - "I looked at it all and I knew it was all right. It was only just beginning."
now this one i have no idea what to make of. need this explained to me lmaooo

the kingdom of the blind - not sure what to make of this story. its a little too referential to other media, which sometimes works and sometimes sounds like its trying too hard. i do like the vibes. who are the blind vs the one eyed in this situation...

this was going so well but lowries segment is difficult to parse with all the fucks.....

useless things: neat story on isolation and class divide - how pitting individuals against each other creates an environment of fear. self preservation vs degradation of trust
a reporter at large: a bit meandering, but i like the mystery. can someone use a crisis to escape?

probably wont finish this for months now till i go back to my sisters place. reading this really brought to mind dead astronauts (vandermeer) with the animal experiments. endless cycle of they killed me, they brought me back

past ch5 this is actually quite helpful

*makes one epic blunder while off meds* i must fix my heart

this book reads more like a slew of random fun facts so far, i dunnoooo

the start is not hooking me at all but we'll see how the book goes

what if i just started reading a bunch of hockey romances
