William Gibson’s writing after the Sprawl trilogy always seemed very likely to happen. I mean, squatters living on the Bay Bridge in NorCal after it gets damaged in an earthquake, for instance. Not the really out there stuff.
Yes, absolutely. His most recent books, the peripheral and agency, have a very plausible outcome—ultra rich living supported by automation after 60-80% of the less fortunate perish over 30
Years in a series of rolling catastrophes they affectionately refer to as “the great jackpot”.

I’m almost done watching Season 1 of The Peripheral tv show now. Its really good.
Yeah I thought they did a great job on that one, hoping they make a season 2.
It doesn’t seem likely but stranger things have happened. Crossing my fingers.
They canceled it during the writer’s strike unfortunately
Ahhh sad
