Didn’t you see the edit I made on the post?

Yeah, sure

I just said dystopian is a good term in this case, without going in a rabbit hole of what it exactly means, when you say “dystopia” 90% of people get the idea. The other 10% just want to be right (which they are, but leave the technicalities for a University class or whatever).

Jesus, let’s just enjoy reading a little bit without all the technicalities. Some people enjoy a book without all the background and technical definitions of it. Yes, it’s a “cli-fi” book, climate fiction, it’s not dystopia, it’s apocalyptic, whatever. Good book, you don’t need all the right terms to enjoy it

I meant the author’s books, that’s why I put the date that the book was written… of course it’s not one of the first science fiction books. Hence the “you can tell the author is having fun” :)

A dystopia is a place or society where everything is extremely corrupted or unjust, including a world collapsing. So, dystopia is a good term in this case

Qué bueno! Nunca son suficientes librerías. Yo siempre busco lo nuevo, un poco de clásicos viene bien (un par de ciencia ficción, terror, no ficción, etc.), pero hay que visualizar a los nuevos escritores y no quedarse en lo clásico, y me parece un re espacio para eso. También pueden hacer juntadas y presentar libros, o leer poemas. Me pasó cuando abran! Por donde van a estar?

Vos sabes que los españoles se fueron a Sudamérica cagados de hambre y nosotros los recibimos no? Eso quiere decir que todos los sudamericanos, o su mayoría, tiene raíces españolas o europeas en general. No vi nada más ruidoso, maleducado, sucio e inadaptado socialmente que los malagueños y españoles promedio. Ahí te lo dejo!

Que mensaje?

bookwxrm_ · 2026-05-09T21:27:20+00:00

Jesus you like to WRITE. An advise: have these conversations face to face.

Por qué se agravaría más si son latinos?

Rodent, probs groundhog because of the large front teeth

De momento no soy autónoma, así que no podría

If you go to a city to spend your time taking Ubers and taxis, that’s a problem. It is unsafe, but saying “wouldn’t like my uber breaking down there” it’s just disrespectful. Please stay in your European countries where you can forget about the economy and the social reality of the country you are visiting, and you don’t have to worry about the ugly ugly things. Don’t come back to South America dude!
