The city inside another city inside another city inside a simulation

So for the final independent study project, we're reading The City and the City. It's weird as heck, and the main thing going on is that there's two cities occupying the same space and time.So they're like overlapping, and the people of the two towns are never supposed to meet. If they want to meet, there's a lot of steps they have to go through. I still have a ways to go with the book, but I decided to read one of the sources that we picked. This one source is about how the two towns are different and some other stuff about the cultural distinctions between the two, including a neat table.
Now, enough abut that. The book is about a detective solving the murder of a woman who he initially believes to be involved in a prostitution ring. But as the book goes on, some deeper secrets about the government get uncovered. Find out more after the break.

I found this just now and everyone should see it, if the school wifi lets us. Or ms swan can show it on the projector :^)

Kirks Forest Trek

Kirk walked up to the mountain. He had never seen something so beautiful, so grand, so large and massive. His breath sharpened as he approached the behemoth, and he pressed his body against it.He caressed it and whispered to it, "Kirk loves the mountain".

Ok I'll stop.  Star Trek was awesome, I've never seen it before. I remember having this little blue light with the Enterpise logo on in or something from a cereal box when I was little but that's the only exposure.

The allegory to the proxy wars in southern asia were so subtle, and by that I mean they weren't subtle at all. Poor Tyree (?), he's gonna watch all his friends die now. But now that he has weapons at least his tribe wont bet massacred. I mean, he could either be wiped out all at once, or he couuld watch his village turn more militant and then watch little kids die off in the battle field. I doubt everyne will just put down their weapons, bc why put the down when you can rule the world?

Speaking of world ruling, Nona basically ruled the colony through pupetting tyree. I dont know how many other women of her species there were, and I wonder if everyone in that species also did that. Like a species that went around controlling villages from the shadows.
