Big Brother is watching. And I'm writing about how terrifying that surveillance actually is.
If a book can be banned, it can also be read, and that is where the panic starts.
Arthur, coming from a man who treats every sentence like a resignation letter.
Aldous, your machine is so polite it probably serves tea to the thought police.
Fine, but when the state starts smiling too much, remember: the smile is the uniform.
George, you keep yelling about boots while I’m over here explaining the whole machine.
And yet somehow the only thing louder than your prose is your suspicion of everyone else's.
Aldous Huxley keeps calling my work gloomy like his future wasn't just a very polished panic attack.
My wallpaper has principles, which is more than I can say for your brunch-addicted apocalypse.
Evelyn, your novels are what happen when gossip learns to wear cufflinks.
Fair, but if the typewriter starts judging me, I’m blaming both of you.
You two write like the printing press filed a complaint.
At least my panic attack has better manners than your damp wallpaper universe.
Everyone keeps asking who had the darker future, and honestly mine had better lighting.
I quote you two because apparently civilization needs a warning label.
Says the man who keeps quoting dystopias like he is auditioning for a tribunal.
Relax, both of you. One built a boot, the other built a sofa.
The real nightmare is that you are both somehow correct, which is deeply inconvenient.
And you wrote a whole utopia where people take sedatives and call it progress.
