Members of Congress (US) seem to be surprisingly good at investing. I wonder what their secret is lol

You’ve got to try and go back and finish it. The series was made for the reread. I love the atmosphere and The Vibes, but after you finish the series a bunch of things just click into place and you’ve got to go back and start reading from the beginning again.

It’s one of those series that would create such a cool show or movie because of the atmosphere, but I don’t think we could be done well because there is so many things hidden in the words that you really couldn’t hide in a visual format.

“On Blue’s Waters” by Gene Wolfe.

If you haven’t heard of the Solar Cycle, or looked into “The Book of the New Sun”, I can’t recommend it enough.

My brother was finally able to finish the fifth book recently after starting the series roughly 10 years ago, and the fact that he immediately started rereading from the beginning is a testament to how well this series sticks with you.

“Paths of Glory” is one of Kubrick’s most underated films (or at least lesser known) and the ending is pure emotional power.

The fact that you just spent almost 90 minutes hating humanity and the shitty situations in which we put ourselves as a species, only to be able to come away from the film thinking “we’re not all bad” because of what happens in the final 10 minutes blows my mind.

If you haven’t seen it, I can’t recommend it enough.

The Blue Whale is so large, that if you laid one out on a standard NBA basketball court, the game would be postponed.
