"We have this notion that if you're poor, you cannot do it. Poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids."

As the audience reluctantly began to applaud during the silence, Biden tried to fix his remarks.

"Wealthy kids, black kids, Asian kids -- no, I really mean it." Biden said.

actually children of the mind was a much better book

i dont give a gently caress

if hitler had written the best book of all time i would read the gently caress out of it and be like wow hitler was an amazing writer he should have focused his energy on that

it's weird how many authors peak super early in their careers then spend the rest of their lives chasing it

I have a feeling patrick rothfuss will follow this path even though he's not even done with his first story arc

the protagonist does all sorts of horrific stuff and the universe contorts itself to say that well actually he's not a bad person. it's a real bad book for impressionable minds to read

also there's the gay oil wrestling shower murder scene

imo enders game is about how talented people can get manipulated into doing horrible things and also how there's a bully lurking inside every victim of bullying

i read ender's game and thought it was massively overrated and probably a steaming pile of fascist trash.

some of my favorite literature in school were in french and latin. we got to read candide, which was basically voltaire taking every opportunity to poo poo all over things he didn't like in an over the top way, and a lot of roman stuff which was fun to do with archaeology.

all i really remember is that the supercomputer figured out how to move their philotic souls or something outside of the universe and then reconstitute them from elementary particles anywhere in the unvierse again, and i think the supercomputer becomes a real girl and figures out how to tap into the mind network of the intelligent pig-trees? it was kinda weird
