- I woke up before 3am (departure time) somewhere over the Atlantic. It was beautiful.

Watching: [[Don't Look Up]]
-
I like Iain M. Banks and I'm currently re-reading [[Look to Windward]] because in [[Red Plenty]] it was described it as an example of a 20th century [[Marxian idyll]]. It's good and all but I'm reading the [[Culture]] now as kind of all premised on [[Prometheanism]] / [[fully automated luxury communism]]. I'm gonna reread [[A Wizard of Earthsea]] (last read as a young teen!) by [[Ursula K. Le Guin]] next as in [[Half-Earth Socialism]] they describe that as [[Jennerite ecological scepticism]] and that is more my bag lately.

I feel happy discovering more and more as I get older that sci-fi books I took off my Mum's bookshelf as a kid are in fact often allegorical for some kind of radical politics that I had no idea of at the time.
