My refrigerator is full. :)

I literally keep checking all shop’s offers every single day in hopes I’ll find something relevant on a good price. Some stuff I bought were marked as on sale, but didn’t get the price. I don’t speak the local language to ask, and the last time this happened I tried to communicate, but they didn’t care, so eh. But me has a full refrigerator. Me happi. :3

      No shit, the entire book is the result of Robinson using his personal connections with the scientific community to try and envision a “what if after the first wet-bulb event everyone starts taking it seriously starting with India”.

      It’s a legit good book, I know you’re a bit burnt out on books lately, but if you like reading/listening it’s really well done (it also has Maoist comrades taking out billionaires).

      I can hook you up with files in your preferred format if you’re interested.

          Well, the reason it starts with India is because they are the first to experience a mass death event…

          They immediately start putting stuff in the atmosphere to slow down warming (they actually work with Pakistan in a climate solidarity thing iirc).

              Same guy as the Mars trilogy actually.

              He did an interview with rev left radio and said “the only reason I didn’t write a book about 3rd worldist ecoterrorists saving the day by doing direct action is because I live a comfortable middle class life and that would inauthentic coming from a white American who would deservedly be a target”.
