Nothing to say ( What happened to The Future ? )

Dreams have let up, sort of, but then I also just haven't been sleeping. Haven't heard back from Sleep / Pulmonary, so I'm going to have to contact them next week to see where that's at.

And this :

' “We’re past the Marxist thing,” said Khoklov, warming to his theme as the pill took hold. “Now it’s different. This time Russia has a kind of craziness that is truly big enough and bad enough to take over the whole world. Massive; total, institutional corruption: Top to bottom: Nothing held back. A new kind of absolute corruption that will sell anything: the flesh of our women, the future of our children. Everything inside our museums and our churches. Anything goes for money: gold, oil, arms, dope, nukes. We’ll sell the soil and the forests and the Russian sky. We’ll sell our souls.” '

From Bruce Sterling's story ' The Littlest Jackel ' , published in 1996. Bruce Sterling never fails to impress me. Maybe I gave up on a ' neko economy ' too soon with all this ' AI ' hoodaboo ?
