Welcome to Litsy!

#Aprella #day5 #VirtualInsanity This classic novel by Robert Louis Stevenson is chock full of insanity. And it‘s not just Mr Hyde‘s, Dr Jekyll‘s less civilized half, that holds the king of insanity title either. Dr Jekyll had to have had a few screws loose, playing without a full deck, a few sandwiches short of a picnic, kangaroos loose in his top paddock etc, to even come up with the idea of this experiment, let alone carry it out on himself!

#Aprella 💻Thriller where the MC is a data analyst working for a security agency specializing in corporate espionage & threat assessment. Dani's skill is in analyzing trash & random objects for patterns to provide background data. She leaves the office one day to go home & collect objects related to an aborted mission & comes back to a virtual bloodbath with her co-workers dead & assassins in the office. That's what I call #virtualinsanity 😱

My novel takes place in the near future, which, being written in 2007, is now the past- the trend of 'locative art' would now fall under augmented reality. But in Spook Country, this hot new techno trend that Hollis Henry gets assigned to investigate from the mysterious new cyber magazine Node, becomes the center of a bizarre conspiracy that only I, inventor of cyberpunk, could dream up. It's excellent, if I do say so myself... #virtualinsanity

What was going on in this dude‘s house, was #virtualinsanity I found this book at a lovely free library in London while visiting @AnnieD but haven‘t had the chance to read it yet. It reminds me of the Cleveland kidnappings from a few years ago, which I found horrifyingly interesting. #aprella

I don‘t quite know why this novel, set in 18th-century London‘s Bethlem Hospital (“Bedlam”), has been sitting unread on my shelf for so long. Has anyone read it?

This messed with my head so much, but it was really good. #virtualinsanity #aprella

It's been a few years since I read this, but it takes place in a future where what is real and what is replicant is indistinguishable. #virtualinsanity #aprella @Mdargusch @Reviewsbylola @emilyhaldi @Cinfhen

Holy calamity it's #virtualinsanity - time to suit up! Bob Arctor/Fred bears witness to the destructive nature of Substance D by posing as an addict.
This vision of a troubled near future is loosely inspired by Philp K Dick's own experiences with drugs.

#VirtualInsanity #Aprella this is slowly breaking my heart. Mental illness can be frightening and definitely isn‘t talked about enough

The employees at the Elysian Society live in some kind of #virtualinsanity where they can channel dead souls through their own bodies by swallowing “lotus” pills and wearing a belonging of the dead. People come into the Society looking to reconnect with loved ones, but sometimes speaking to the dead through someone else can begin to blur the lines of reality... and sometimes drive people insane.
