What in the hell? You think this is ok? A honey blend implies a blend of.....wait for it..... different HONEY.

Not a blend of super cheap and super unhealthy syrup.

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.

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

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

Genuinely not sure which option is more frightening.

Take all my updoots!

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.

Lmao and the people hoarding incalculable wealth that they'll never ever be able to spend in multiple lifetimes are for sure helping us progress as a species.

Get real.

When have you ever seen a petition change a single thing? You really think that signing names on a piece of paper would be sufficient to take down the Monarchy?

You realize how naive that is at best, right?
