Amazing Ursula Le Guin quote. h/t @gbbranstetter.bsky.social on the ex-bird site

"For we each of us deserve everything, every luxury that was ever piled in the tombs of the dead kings, and we each of us deserve nothing, not a mouthful
of bread in hunger. Have we not eaten while another starved? Will you punish us for that?
Will you reward us for the virtue of starving while others ate? No man earns punishment, no man earns reward. Free your mind of the idea of deserving, the idea of earning, and you will begin to be able to think."
— Ursula K. Le Guin, The Dispossessed: An Ambiguous Utopia

Ahahaha, for fun (not nefarious!) reasons I am being asked to recall my 'worst' rejection and like... after 20+ years in science and policy I was VERY well primed to enter the rejection-heavy world of publishing I can't REMEMBER any bad rejections in writing I better go trawl my emails
