From recent releases, I really like Tillie Walden’s ultrasoft scifi On a Sunbeam, (2015-2017), and Kieron Gillen’s The Wicked + The Divine (2014-ongoing), which has a lot of similarity to American Gods.
For something rationalist-adjacent, I’d recommend Blue Delliquanti’s O Human Star (2012-ongoing), which deals with LGBTQ issues in the context of FAI and transhumanism.
Would love to have you in attendance!
Hi, I’m helping to organize this year’s NYC Solstice, as raemon has moved to the Bay Area. I’ve been reading LW, SSC, and rationalist Tumblr since about January and going to NYC meetups semiregularly since April, but haven’t yet posted on here, so I thought I’d make a quick introduction.
My name is Rachel, I’m an undergrad senior at NYU completing a communications major. I’m originally from the Bay Area. On the MBTI, I’m an INTJ. Besides rationality, my passions are graphic novels and cooking. My intellectual interests tend towards things that have a taxonomic character, like biology and linguistics. (I’m also a fan of the way that these subjects keep evading a perfect taxonomy.)
I occasionally wear sandals.
