Cowardly DM!
I dunno, seems pretty seems pretty complex to me. I'm sure the democratically elected bigwigs in charge know a thing or two about running industries properly. There must be some other reason that countries with underdeveloped solar industries are falling behind...if only we could figure it out!
After dipping my toes into Mastodon I had naively assumed that I understood it well enough. After reading this article it is clear that I was barely even scratching the surface.
Thanks for the article!
I assumed there would be, but I haven't read it yet. It's on my list, but it keeps getting bumped down.
In my opinion The Handmaid's Tale has some truly thought provoking ideas, but the characters and scale of the book don't really allow for an exploration of those ideas.
To me it was reminiscent of Fahrenheit 451: both stories are set in dystopian worlds that are not too far from ours, both play with some big ideas, both universes cry out for expansion, and both stories end on a bit of a dull note.
My mate used to refer to them as "Good-Guy Hardcore"
That's one suspicious looking owl there.
