Make sure you give your librarians some love and respect. #librarians #kurtvonnegut

I suppose that my only son won't throw all my books away...or sell them. The two of us have some mutual faves 💕

We should learn from #history & not repeat same #mistakes. Many ppl do learn; enough others don’t or learn too late. We think: “Things are different, better now. That’ll never happen here.“ (I once thought that.)

Are things “different”?

#TheSirensOfTitan, by #KurtVonnegut: one of my favorite books from my teenage years.

“His response was to fight it with the only weapons at hand—passive resistance and open displays of contempt.” 🤣

🧪 “So anyway, I was a chemistry major, but I’m always winding up as a teacher in English departments, so I’ve brought scientific thinking to literature. There’s been very little gratitude for this.”

Kurt Vonnegut always cheers me up.

When you look at all the books you have, and realize that 99% of them are on the 'banned books" list, you are lucky indeed. The other 1% are mostly cookbooks 😂 #kurtVonnegut #RobertHeinlein #ToniMorrison #IsaacAsimov #CarlSagan

I'm rereading Slaughterhouse Five and there was a good, eccentric bit of description in there, and I got to thinking, this is something I bet AI just can't do. The most basic human novel writing, ChatGPT can't do. So I tried it. See for yourself. #kurtvonnegut #slaughterhousefive #chatgpt #booksky

This was funny in 1969. Today, we still have wars, but Kurt, we’re actually making progress on eliminating glaciers!

My novel #LorenesSalon is about an iconoclastic Southern woman in 1958. The digital version is $2.99 at draft2digital.com/book/2458945.

I think of "Lorene's Salon" as #KateChopin meets #KurtVonnegut as it addresses Southern and women's issues while employing dark humor.

Our awareness is all that is alive and maybe sacred in any of us. Everything else about us is dead machinery.
