      I will now suggest to you some good sci-fi I just read: Don't Make Me Think, by @0x49fa98. Small Thread with some thoughts, too.https://zerohplovecraft.wordpress.com/2021/07/07/dont-make-me-think/ …

      EMOJIS: Almost impossible to speak of this story without mentioning them. At first they seem cumbersome, until you see the attempt at flavoring words you already know. This brings up a key question: Do the emoji add to your understanding of the story? 2/?

      I found myself almost ignoring them, so perhaps I ended up missing some things, but it's easy to see a theme of the interwoven nature of words vs. pictures vs. reality. How exactly do our neurons work together to render to us an understandable view of reality. 3/?

      BUY-IN: Story got my buy-in; as in I eventually NEEDED to finish the story, I needed to know what happened. Last book that did that to me was Dan Simmons' Ilium, well, maybe Neal Stephenson's Diamond Age. I buy the portrayal of the future and all its technologies. 4/?

      I buy that this is precisely how our elites will technologize us into Borg-like slavery--Fancy, cool, useful, but dangerous gadgets; nigh Faustian bargains we take on willingly; wrapped in an endless flow of jargony think-pieces and "studies" rationalizing it all. 5/?

      I'm a slow reader AND a busy guy, but I blew thru this in two days. Lots of nerd references that are used aptly, so as to mitigate possible cringe. Now here I am, just a tweeter, talking to other tweeters, asking them to read this. 6/?
