that's like saying you would rather have rear end cancer than dick cancer

Dick (ball) cancer is actually the kind u want if ur a guy cuz it's got basically a 100% recovery rate and if u catch it early enough u don't even need radiation or chemo

hey you recovered fully, right? no chance of remission or anything like that?

go cards

had an oncology appt on tuesday, they drew a bunch of blood to check all my levels and a did a ct/pet scan so i spent like all day in a tube to see if im good. it is in remission but im still in the danger zone of it coming back but if i make it like another year yea its prolly gone. doc approved me to get a weed card tho because im basically maxed out on opiods (oxys, hydromorphones, fentanyl patches etc) and im pretty leary about short circuiting my CNS for like several years a time. just gotta get the like 150 bucks scrounged up somehow for the card app fee. so pretty good meeting overall.

cards probably gonna suck again for a while. good news is is everyone else in the nfc west will too :V

I agree with you except for the book Card wrote about Christopher Columbus, that book was weirdly good and progressive as hell

i read some weird OSC book after i finished all the ender books and was like well i enjoyed those lets try his other stuff. i came across some book that was like the last book in some series where it was way in the future and all the humans got kicked off earth by our AI overlords and segregated by races and watched over until they thought we were ready to be let back onto earth and everytime they did we just kept genociding each other cause of our skin color i guess.

well this was following our brave heroes and they come to earth and learn that the ais said fuckit and let flying squirrels evolve and take over the planet lmao

thats all i remember but it was pretty funny and mostly bad

thats my orson scott card book story

It ended poorly for the colony ship.

hull zero three was a pretty neat book that i think they adapted for that movie Pandorum

like I kind of wouldn't mind finding out what happens on the surface of Venus post-protomolecule but like literally every other part of the first book I didn't really care about how it developed and I know that it'd be like 3/4 of the way through the 2nd book before they spilled the beans on any deets re: Venus

the exapanse was actually pretty great for the first like 4 books but osrta is meandering around in the last 2

the venus stuff was real neat imo
