I agree. I can enjoy both, but I get a particular energy out of discussing ideas. Small talk about one's life or vacation is less interesting/energizing to me.

And that's okay. I'm not sure why this had to involve a sermon on immaturity and—of all things—bigotry.

If you haven't done it, check out wandering earth on netflix, it's based off of a short story by him.

I didn't know that going in and about halfway through I remember thinking China must have a lot of amazing Chinese sci-fi writers because the ideas in the movie reminded me of the vastness of Liu Cixin. Then afterwards I look up more info and find out it's based off of a short story of his.

Of course it is, lol. Great movie.
