Reality is that which refuses to go away when I stop believing in it.

@aardvark179 If you can cope with a long read, this was my response after reading the Exegesis back in 1994.

Good overview of Torment Nexus concept. In the end, sci-fi doesn’t teach people to be evil. It simply amplifies today’s evil with tomorrow’s technology.

#introduction Hi! I’m Kim—a #writer and #editor. I love helping authors of the marvelous, fantastical, and strange harness their literary magic. I also edit #BoneParade.

I love to write (#magicalrealism, #speculative), read (#RichardBrautigan, #CarsonMcCullers, #PhilipKDick, #GabrielGarcíaMárquez, #VirginiaWoolf, #MilanKundera, #RichardYates), listen to music (#TheReplacements, #TomWaits, #LeonardCohen, #VicChesnutt), play #DnD, and be with my partner, our cat, and my favorite humanoids.

But the problem is a real one, not a mere intellectual game. Because today we live in a society in which #SpuriousRealities are manufactured by the #Media, by #governments, by big #Corporations, by #ReligiousGroups, #PoliticalGroups — & the #ElectronicHardware exists by which to deliver these #PseudoWorlds right into the heads of the reader, the viewer, the listener. #PhilipKDick, #1978
