the book definitely read like it was written by a programmer with two engineers as parents, and I honestly have no idea how it got so popular so fast. I mean I loved it, but I’m a space nerd/engineer who builds rockets so I’m kind of the target audience. but i don’t understand how normies even got through all the science speak and poo poo to enjoy the story movie was decent because I don’t expect movies to adhere exactly to the book or anything and it was just a fun time and yeah lol at the fuckin wind storm blowing the rocket over

gary oldmans diary posted:2 years ago was a very different time. people alive today could never understand what it was like also lol yeah space and engineering pursuits were cool in the media a few years ago and now they’re just another example of evil men running the world and now they want to run space too!!1 white flight! neo manifest destiny! space colonialism by powerful white men! totally ignoring all the women/other cultures and countries in the field and dissuading future women from joining, exacerbating the problem rather than helping it

Hell Yeah posted:there is no point in the martian where i thought matt damon was in any danger at all in fact it seemed like he was really enjoying his time on mars and very pleased with himself. well yeah it was actually fulfillment fantasy by the author wishing HE could be trapped on mars and survive by sheer engineering brilliance. does that not sound like a fun time to you?
