it takes so long to get into, with all those weird words, but it’s just a lotta fun and a cool read nonetheless.
i’d also like to mentionnnnn that Le Carre, specifically A Spy Who Came In From The Cold, is great (though I haven’t finished it yet 😭 the writing is veryyyy gripping, and it’s got enough going on to keep you interested.)
i’ve developed a penchant for older books/media, for no apparent reason loll, but yeah 😊😊

i spent so much of last year reading research based nonfiction that i forgot i could read for FUN and boy is this book a fkn ride
quality, humorous science fiction written in the 50s. of course there are some unsavory snags because of the time period in which it was written, but all in all it's a fantastic cheeky commentary that feels as relevant today as it must've then.
if u like sexy aliens, love (?) triangles, and anti-war comedy, this is a good one!

If you’re looking for an extended prequel universe for the Flight of the Concords song Bowie this is it. be prepared for horrific aliens who adore poetry, a new drink you’re dying to taste and never can and don’t forget your towel.
The books good.. the 1978 radio play.. better.

...sorry i could not resist. Google says so too. Seriously though, the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is great literature.

okayyyy so we all live laugh and love movies here, don’t we?
YESS, great. i think that, although they can sometimes be weird and uncomfortable and, at times, really really boring, it’s kinda nourishing, for lack of better term, to watch old movies! i feel like a lot of the media that’s being made today, or atleast the most widely advertised media, is really not done with the intention of making something new and better than what came before. I partake in social media and all that jazz, and sometimes there are really great things made by people today, even if they require a bit more looking for, but the feeling of watching a good OLD movie is simply unbeatable. if u wanna movie rec, ASK cause I’ve got plentyyyy 💅
