@Sterno 70s scifi definitely has a certain feel to it. Also not always super progressive regarding women. Hi, Ringworld.

FAE
Aug 19, 2015 14:20
@PrivatePansy Huh. Interesting. Also apparently there's no room for "just has scifi elements" or something.

Aug 19, 2015 14:18
@PrivatePansy I have not read the former but I'm super psyched the latter just came out in e-form. It's been a while since I read it and my copy is still at my parents.
FAE
Aug 19, 2015 14:17
@PrivatePansy Did they not cover the term "speculative fiction"?
FAE
Aug 19, 2015 14:17

Aug 19, 2015 14:16
@PrivatePansy Getting the feel that people have a very narrow/wrong view of scifi o_O
FAE

@twobugs Yeah. x_X
FAE
Aug 19, 2015 14:05
@MartinSojka This sounds like you have nefarious plans...
FAE
Aug 19, 2015 14:02
@twobugs Some people are super emotional and all.
FAE
Aug 19, 2015 14:00
@twobugs I dunno, I think that implies that mourning through grief and sadness is immature and I don't think that's the case, IMO.
FAE
Aug 19, 2015 13:58
@GodEmperorDune Oof, that's rough.
FAE
Aug 19, 2015 13:58
There's no like, set amount of tears you have to shed before it's deemed "enough" to have mourned someone.

@Yuuki I know I'm just like Random Person B on the internet, but you don't have to. It's okay. Not everyone mourns, not everyone feels grief.

Aug 19, 2015 13:56
@Yuuki It can be hard when we feel like we're not dealing with stuff in the "right" way
