i've noticed that shyness in men is often mistaken for politeness which is not synonymous at all!

genuinely hate the t*mgr*g industrial complex you people do not deserve to be allowed to watch television. experiencing a piece of media and getting nervous and/or disinterested until there's a slash ship you can make everything about and then breathing a sigh of relief

My sympathy and understanding for certain co-workers of mine not checking stuff before they start work is just about gone.聽 Sorry, no.聽 They have full and easy access to looking this stuff up, and I鈥檓 so over the excuses of it being hard.聽 I just did it in less than 2 minutes via a platform I rarely use and they use all the time.聽 They chose not to do it.聽 I get that they鈥檙e busy, but they keep making their lives (and mine!) harder by NOT checking this first.聽聽

Not to beat this dead horse but as I am fighting my way through the last hundred-odd pages of The Long Way to a Small Angry Planet, I keep thinking about the usage of character perspective in science fiction. At the start of the book, we're with Rosemary all the time. She's easily the least interesting character, but she's our little pinhole into this world and I like that.
When her plot line is resolved halfway through (with like, stunningly little resistance, as is customary for this limp stained glass window of a novel), we're suddenly adrift, tossed between Sissix and Kizzy and Ashby and whomever else happens to be around. This might work all right in lit fiction, but in a world meant to be disorienting and unfamiliar, using the protagonist as a root stops being optional. I'm reminded of Genly Ai of The Left Hand of Darkness fame, how we spend hundreds of pages learning with him, how even when we switch to Estraven's perspective, it only gives context to Genly's experience and only after the world has been thoroughly established. Even then, LHOD takes place on a single planet to mitigate potential loss of interest and only swaps between those two characters. It's masterfully done by one of the if not THEE greatest sci-fi writer of her generation and even le Guin knows when to draw the line and pull us back.
Conversely, Chambers鈥攅namored with this rich and interesting world and every rich and interesting character living within it鈥攍eaves us adrift in a sea of information with no root to show us why it's important. You know those posts that are like "lol why is every planet in sci-fi just one kind of people when every world is infinitely rich and diverse?" This reads as a direct response, a novel trying to be both road trip and road map. The reason why Star Trek and so forth focus solely on one type of people per episode is because trying to fit in everything or even multiple things about every single world is鈥攃rucially鈥攄isorienting and boring. An entirely unique science fiction or fantasy world is nothing without a character and a conflict to ground it. Without that, the best it can be is vaguely interesting background noise.
