It hurts when you say these things!

Have to agree on that, now that you mentioned! Sims kinda feels like he’s from another world, his dialect is too distinctive from the others. It would’ve been nice to see/hear more silo-specific language being used, dialects and idioms, the books only mention it a few times as well!

I just watched the latest episode and can’t wait to see how the next season turns out! IMDB says there should be a 4th season coming as well but it would be the last one.

There’s a lot of fanfic based on the Silo world and I hear some of it very good. Somebody had linked this list of popular Silo fanfic on Reddit, The Karma series as well as Silo 42 and Silo 49 were recommended!

When being tested for ADHD my mom refused to take part in the interviews and was really reluctant to help me figure out the symptoms I had as a child etc. Funniest thing, she works as a therapist in an asylum for prisoners, so one might think she’d understand how important it is to get help with mental health, yet she was apparently thinking I want to get diagnosed just to get drugs and my problem is that I just don’t try enough. And here I’m thinking, ma, have you realized how many different careers and educations you’ve had, how your relationships are a mess and how anxious you are all the time, not to mention the hoarding of stuff and hobbies etc. we are the same.

Nice to hear! Well I’ve quite liked the show so far (also started reading because of it), I think they’ve managed to make the series both similar and different enough from the book for both to be enjoyed as individual interpretations of the same story. I love that they haven’t rushed with the show either, the whole setting/environment is so interesting (and well made) that it’s worth spending time with. I love that in the books as well, the rhythm works well to me at least and I enjoy dwelling in the silo itself and its details. It’s nice that the people in the series are more diverse than in the books, and characters have more depth (although Juliette, but the character feels more unilateral in the book as well than many of the others). Some sidetracks, like that Salvador Quinn thing, feel a bit strange/forced, but we’ll see how that turns out! How do you like the show then?

Just finished the second book Shift and started the third, Dust, from Silo series. The first two were really good, long enough to dive deep into it and on that sweet level of being easy to read yet enough detail to keep it interesting.

My SO reads me stories in the evening and now we are going through LOTR, although I must say it’s getting a bit cumbersome, being quite slow-paced book and all, so we’ll probably give up and switch to something else soon.

Read it recently and it’s a great and inspiring book, although there are some sections with quite a bit of rambling, which was not exactly easy to read, but definitely worth the effort, and after completing the book it also came clear why – and like you said: new thought processes!

He’s a geeper!

By enjoying you mean vibing the anxiety?

Intohimoinen vastustus tälle MH:n paskennukselle. Meni verenkeitin päälle kun joutui itse askartelemaan pakettia ulos ko. automaatista. Toivottavasti on edes maksettu hyvät rahat jollekin digitalisaatiokonsultille tuosta innovaatiosta.
