Don't mind me folks, just bringing up some old news

[Adrian @StoneSpears]

https://t.co/SyrsY2mpdO Why was São Paulo’s transport secretary placed under arrest?

[Adrian @StoneSpears]

Old news is still news, especially whilst passing through paywalls

@ogzigzilla And it's only now that it's finally over does one realise just how much they learned.

[Adrian @StoneSpears]

Wishing I'd packed my copy of Man in the High Castle for this cross country drive #SF409

[Adrian @StoneSpears]

@ogzigzilla I'd say the endsinger trilogy by jay kristoff. mix of sci-fi and fantasy but also surprisingly thought provoking. World building in it's p good too

[Adrian @StoneSpears]

I don't think I've ever written so much so quickly for that long before. My hand hurts now thanks to the final. #SF409

[Adrian @StoneSpears]

Prepping for the #SF409 means a bunch of dead trees

[Adrian @StoneSpears]

Feel kinda sorry for all the trees I'm killing in order to prep for the #SF409 final

"I am a Jew... We did not die. We still exist. We live on unseen." Best line in this book, bc surviving is the best form of revenge. History is full of attempts to destroy the Jewish people. They've ultimately ended in failure bc were still here #SF409

Man In the High Castle is a great book to pull out during Thanksgiving dinner in order to avoid that one particular cousin #sf409

[Adrian @StoneSpears]

"A periwinkle tattoo. A citizen. Good." This line makes me think about the yellow badges that Jews were forced to wear in Nazi Germany, and also how colours denoted one's status in the camps. #SF409

[Adrian @StoneSpears]

@Maria99831572 It's existed in various forms throughout history, from the yellow Stars of David worn by Jews in Nazi Germany to the pass laws of Apartheid South Africa.

Ink has a v Joseph Conrad-esque feel to it. Vourvoulias paints a picture that has come to reflect today, just like Conrad did with Heart of Darkness and The Secret Agent. #SF409

[Adrian @StoneSpears]

note to self: trying to re-read the various short stories we've had whilst sleep deprived will not have provoke some magnificent breakthrough. it only leaves an enby even more confused than before #sf409

[Adrian @StoneSpears]

Hey y'all I've a family emergency that I had to fly out to deal w/. Would anyone be willing to send me the notes for tonight's class? #SF409

[Adrian @StoneSpears]

I love how Day Million sets the stage for a heteronormative love story and then completely turns it up on its head #SF409

[Adrian @StoneSpears]

The endings in all the books we've read thus far feel like pyrrhic victories; some people live, some people die, and no one's really happy. #SF409
