[takes one of everything labelled 'warning: this medication makes you drowsy' in the medicine cabinet] beam me up scotty

getting real fuckin tired of seeing posts on my feed that tell me about some horrible thing happening but don't follow with anything on what we can actually do about it

- davy prentiss? i'm pretty sure that's a character and he's a preacher's son
- they all have names like that, like fuckin 15th century christian shit
- actually there's a lot of obviously christian allegory and i'm just realizing right now that it might all be a metaphor for the colonization of the americas???
- because it turns out they're the decendants of spacefarers
- and this planet has its own indigenous people that they have fictional slurs for
- i don't remember if they have Noise too
- is there a civil war at some point? i know the protag realizes there's like a whole world out there and there are much more technologically advanced places that actually remember where they came from
- there's probably more women
- i'm pretty sure davy prentiss just walks into the ocean and gets eaten by sharks at the end?????????????????

ok so
- protagonist is the last boy in his village. all the women are dead, and all the men have already come of age
- the land has a disease(?) which i guess kills all the women and leaves the alive people with Audible Thoughts. they refer to this as their Noise
- also animals have Noise? the book opens with protag's dog telling him he needs to poop. so there's just this constant background radiation of other entities' thoughts in your life
- the inciting incident is that like a week before his coming of age ceremony, protag finds what he describes as A Hole in the Noise and discovering that it belongs to.... dun dun dun.... A Girl

other edinburgh rock facts:
- most of the cobblestones in the old town are made from cooled magma
- the summit of arthur's seat is actually the inside of the volcano, they reckon it used to be about 200m taller before the peak fucked off
- the reason castle rock is Like That is because it's made of soft enough rock that glaciers just kinda left it alone i guess

thinking about how the scandes, the cairngorms and the appalachias used to be one contigous mountain range again oh god oh fuck
