Minor spoilers ahead.

I have no clue what this show will be like.

I read the trilogy and I'm not really sure that it will translate to the screen very well. The story is absolutely massive and spans from beginning in the Chinese cultural revolution and ends at the literal end of time.

That being said, it is probably my favorite and what I consider the best sci-fi trilogy out there.

Incredibly interesting concepts are explored and it also has a really interesting way of telling the story. It's not just about one guy saving the whole universe. It catalogs all of civilization's attempts at coming together and protecting humanity from an alien threat. And it also goes into all of the issues that humanity runs into while trying to work together, while also spanning across thousands of years.

It's a really fantastic series and I would highly recommend it to just about anyone with an intellectual interest in humanity's future.

It's a big statement to say, but this book changed my outlook on humanity and globalism.

Fuck this company. Fuck these ghouls making this decision.

This is easily the most badass form of piracy I've ever seen. The right kind of rebellion.

But how can you sleep at night knowing that there are people living their lives in a way that doesn't affect anyone else!

Quick! The people are rebelling against the genocide that we're committing!

Better bring out ol faithful to divide the people: gender politics.

Ah yes. Bigger, better, more deadly weapons will definitely help reduce deaths.

It's all just lining the pockets of weapons manufacturers.

Gives a whole new meaning to "vote or die".

Ding ding ding!

They started seeing everyone posting on social media that they're not voting to support us paying for a genocide.

Just had to wait for there to be 30,000 Palestinian deaths first.

9/11 had 2,996 deaths for a little bit of context. Just imagine what would be happening right now if there were 30,000 dead Americans.

Genuinely not sure which option is more frightening.

Take all my updoots!

In this economy?

It definitely has plenty of flaws, but the good things heavily outweigh the bad.

I mean just the shear scope of that game is crazy. It's very ambitious .There are so many dialog options. I've tried to explore as much as I can in my first playthrough but I can tell there's a lot of content that I've missed.

Can't wait to do a second run.
