"Here are some of the bonkers ideas that misguided geniuses have come up with to save us all (even if they had to kill every last one of us to do it)."
Including hippos in the Mississippi

Apparently it's World #Hippo Day, which of course reminds me of Sarah Gailey's alternative-history novelette, #RiverOfTeeth

@trini We actually read all those for #StoryClub and that *might* have been how the person running them picked the stories to read, but I'm not sure.

We also read #RiverOfTeeth for #sffBookClub and it was terrific. So exciting to see these! I doubt I would have known anything about them without these clubs. 💜

All Systems Red looks really interesting and is on my "yeah I should get to that sometime" list. Guess I'll have to check out the others!

My parents came to visit me today and wanted to go to the zoo. We saw a mastodon and a hippo.

I think someone who works at this zoo is one of us. 😆

5 out of 5 stars for Sarah Gailey's River of Teeth because it is amazing and violent, because it spoke to me deeply, and because it has hippos.
