[RANT] I'm sick of the ocean boiling in Solarpunk fiction
  • @uriel238 @cerement

    I feel like we could go on -

    Octavia E Butler: A Special Destiny will Save Humanity.

    Ayn Rand: Special Rich People will Save Humanity.

    Any others? 😂

  • Good novels or short stories?
  • @pablonaj I've heard really, really great things about Becky Chamber's "Monk and Robot" novellas.

    Short stories are where you see a lot of great #Solarpunk stuff.

    The "Glass and Gardens" collections edited by @sarenaulibarri are great and were one of my first introductions to the genre. Her "Another Life" novella is also great.

    The "Sunvault" collection edited by @Pheebsdw is well regarded.

    I've also subscribed to "Solarpunk Magazine" and I've been genuinely impressed by the stories.

  • Eating the bugs?
  • @Doctor_olo I personally would not. My spouse and I are vegetarian and I think we would stick with that. We are not dogmatic about it but I think that one can get all the protein they need from plants, pulses, and dairy. But if other's want to try, power to them.
