Currently reading Dune because apparently it's the greatest sci-fi novel ever and I'LL BE THE JUDGE OF THAT.

Tell me if is really good after please.
I have suspicions because its older.

I listen to an audiobook that is older about a guy who wanted to bring Christianity to a tribe in the Amazons and gave up on it instead even for himself.

It’s older and I notice.
He describes the people as very peaceful and the best and nicest five minutes before the described a gang rape. So I guess that’s not violent and a good thing? Hm.

I don't get it but I like it.

Yeah, I mean it is tricky. It's like a whole lot has gone on and you don't really know where to jump in. So I will try to do better. Obviously it is only up from here. >love the show, first time poster, 10+ yr listener< Sheesh you are right, I don't get it either.

thought about it. i think i’d like to indulge my inner-child; rediscover uncertainty as freedom and opportunity. every wonderful thing that ever happened to me happened when i felt fearless.

Generally not a resolutions guy but I hope I get sober sometime in January. Been regularly abusing "freebase" DXM (ingredient in cough syrup). Not particularly relevant but I'm on this path because of hearing about robotripping on a podcast - initially Jay Mohr, but the mentions here would likely have piqued my interest too.
