Hoo Hah?

Oddly, I got nothin' today.
Actually having a pretty good weekend, so I wasn't really grumbling about too much. Or really thinking about a whole lot. I am mostly just enjoying myself and my Sexy Other's company, and doing a bit of reading whilst the opportunity arises. I picked up not one but two books this weekend. One being a compilation of stories by William Gibson, and one being a sort of manifesto on the Future.
You Are Not A Gadget is the title, and it's by (oddly) the guy who mostly invented virtual reality. It's not what you'd imagine at first glance though; so far, I get the impression he's really unhappy with how technology has progressed, and thinks it may not too be late for this path to be 'locked in' to its current course. Of course, people are greedy shits, so it's likely he's wrong on that score.
But so far I'm liking it. It makes sense. It speaks to my dissatisfaction about the way the world is progressing.
Posted, I will keep you.
