By the way, do you have any sci-fi books/stories you can recommend? It's so hard to find ones that are not full of the horrendous bigotry.

I have had people recommend that I try Octavia Butler's works, but I have yet to do research on any of those before I pick any of them up.

I'll try to figure out a good list, I always forget things as soon as I'm asked lol.

I'll try to edit summaries and word counts to this post tomorrow

But I have read one series by Octavia Butler so far, the Xenogenesis trilogy, and it was fantastic, but it definitely comes with some serious trigger warnings.

I assume the rest of her books are just as serious, so I definitely recommend looking up trigger warnings before reading them. But if they're anything like Xenogenesis they will be well worth the read!

For TV shows at least, Babylon 5 is fantastic.

Books....there's a lot of them lol. I'm reading a crap ton of public domain short stories from Project Gutenberg and Librivox.

The Imperial Radch series by Ann Leckie is awesome. It's got a trilogy and two standalone books set after the trilogy so far.

Oh. Super old scifi book I love is Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions.

The original book is public domain and can be listened to as an awesome audiobook here, or read online / downloaded from Project Gutenberg!

And then I also translated it into casual / modern English to make it easier for more people to read. You can read it here on tumblr at @flatland-a-2024-translation, on the Internet Archive, or listen to the still lazy audiobook version on youtube. (It's lazy because it's unedited and for some reason I decided to make it while recovering from Covid19. Don't ask me why I have no idea)

It's both a political satire condemning the bigotry of Victorian England, and an introduction to the mathematical concept of higher dimensions. It's fun. It's hilarious.

Just don't watch the most popular movie that has been made for it that's free on youtube, it's by a man so absurdly racist that even other Republicans were horrified, and the movie completely misses all of the points the book has to make about how bigotry is bad, and does character assasination for everyone involved.

Here's some cool short stories, mostly public domain:

There's a bunch of fun ones in Librivox's short science fiction collections, which you can listen to on youtube, or on their app or site. Too many for me to keep track of or summarize....

Omnilingual by H. Beam Piper. Just very fun space archaeology. Also has a cool time travel story, Time and Time Again.

The Beast of Space, by F E Hardart is a fun monster story with a living asteroid.

Oh crap. And how could I forget Who Goes There? The short story the movie "The Thing" is based on.

The Lost Kafoozalum is very funny. Only 1 bad part at the very end that's obnoxious but it's easy enough to "fix" by applying basic logic to the characters. And it's public domain so at some point I'm just gonna rewrite the annoying part.

Also I like Cry From a Far Planet.

And The Defenders by Philip K. Dick

hmmmmmmmmmm yeah I'm forgetting a ton lol. I'll add them to this post when I remember them.

Oh, I haven't read this one yet, but a ton of people recommend it. The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet, by Becky Chambers.

Beyond the Heaviside Layer is also a fun weird alternate universe

and....so many more I forget lol.

oh crap wait. If. If you can find it, Venusian Lullaby by Paul Leonard. It is technically a Doctor Who story, but it is 1000% standalone science fiction and you don't need to know anything about Doctor Who to read it. It is so good. But like. So many people die. So many that I lost count. But it's just fantastic. The worldbuilding. OMG

was just reading a post about “wanting more adults in your life to do [whatever]” and I realised at that moment that I think of my gf as an adult but not myself. and THAT’S PROBABLY SOMETHING THAT SHOULD CHANGE IMMINENTLY
