I would like to recommend Radio-Free Albemuth. I believe it was published shortly after his death.
Also, Now Wait for Last Year has some hilarious elements.

I liked both of those too. Several movies have been made from his books and stories, the most famous being "Bladerunner". He sued the filmmakers to get his name removed from the credits as scriptwriter because he didn't like what they did to the book. The only movie that's really like a Philip K. Dick book is "A Scanner Darkly".

Apparently they decided to mute @optimissed instead, all his posts are gone.

1. yes, but unlike you, this is my first and only account forever.
2. There really is no way for chess.com to remove inappropriate behavior when people just make dozens of accounts. *Snip*
3. The internet as I knew it from before you were born died long ago, *snip*
4. But for the site to just auto mute people who are just having adult conversations and trying to be social, is barbaric and uncivilized in itself. *Snip*
*Comment has been edited to add numbers*
1. Too early to say. My first account here in 2010 lasted 1.5 years before I closed it. That's twice your 9 months. Forever is a long time.
2. Agree. But Ron is not one of these offenders.
3. Thanks for making me feel young again, uncle
4. Agree it is bad. Unsure about barbaric.

It's scientifically proven that the number of past accounts is proportional to IQ, bank account balance, and ____ size.

Jesus how many accounts have you had/have? Thats almost 12 years ago and it didn't last 2 years? lol. And of course he is another offender like you. You think people don't look at your profiles and realize these things?
I am not he whose name you shouldn't use in vain.
Your account hasn't lasted that long yet either. And it's only your say so that you haven't had previous accounts here. We don't really know do we?
Also how is this an offence and what did you realize by looking at our accounts?

Thats what a fake account conman would say. We have the site allowing speedrunners and chasing off the adults who are not allowed to be social to thank for comments like yours. Take note Martin. Look at all these profiles in this thread.
No Martin, please!

It's just science man. Not like I can help it.
People are always envious without realizing how inconvenient it is.

Lots of accusations and leaps of logic here.
Don't think Martin is the one tested here. You might be projecting.
When did Martin say these folks were immoral.

Why are you copying me? Both our accounts created on the same day?
...
Hence, and again, , it should be some "unflag request" button available somewhere, so we could have our written speach reviewed by some human moderator, when the robot goes "boïnk I'm stoopid".
Most live mutes are 30 minutes, for a first offense and that's after 3 repeated attempts to post something that generates a filter hit and warning over a short period of time. As far as I'm aware, there is no way to remove a live mute other than letting it expire. Even if there was, the time would expire before anyone saw the unflag option if it every were to exist.
