Upvote from me for being a real shitpost. This is fast becoming one of my favourite comms.

How presidential of him.

There's your problem in a nutshell, America.

He's been disturbingly quiet this time around. I'd like to think it's because he's satisfied with managing that $2bn Saudi fund, but I find that unlikely.

I know Orson Scott Card is persona non grata these days, but his sci-fi is still some of the best for my money. His short story collections, the Maps in a Mirror series, are great stuff and would be a goldmine for screenplay writers.

I read Ender's Game more or less in one sitting. What a page turner.

Still one of my favourites that I have read several times. The pace is relentless.

The Player of Games is my second favourite Culture novel.

Voltaire's Bastards by John Ralston Saul. It showed me how the world really works. Also The Doubter's Companion as a supplement to that.

Australia really needs to close Pine Gap as well.

The Dude Abides.
