Unpopular Opinion:

I think Tucker Carlson is a piece-of shit and a coward. That said, there is no contadiction in someone hating the bravest person they know.

We have to hold people accountable for their governments in spite of the empathy we feel about their struggle.

The best way you can help fight climate change is to not have children.

Dune, but both are excellent.

Here are some of my subjective rankings:

Foundation is the front runner of “Epic” sci-fi, by far. It’s relatively easy to follow. Some of the individual stories are memorable, and a few are less memorable when compared to the others. Foundation is my favourite sci-fi series of all time.

Dune is epic when compared to any series apart from Foundation. The earlier books are more memorable, but the later books are still excellent. I prefer the more nuanced political plots in Dune compared to Foundation.

Hyperion is more about some top-tier stories that spill over in to epicness. Some of these stories are more memorable to me than the individual stories in Foundation and Dune. Political intrigue is developed later and isn’t as central to the overall plots.

Whichever you pick you win.
