“Agricultural bots have the statistically lowest chance of accidental injuries but are physically the most terrifying. It’s weird how something designed to take care of delicate lifeforms looks the most like it wants to tear you apart and eat your humans.” -Network Effect, Martha Wells

It was too dark for her to see my expression. I’m not sure what it was but you could probably describe it as “skeptical.” (Ratthi says that’s how I look most of the time.)

rogue protocol killed me and then kicked my corpse around like the football so here is miki. to cope.

“Six episode later I felt the transport in the feed again, lurking.”

I love MB and ART’s relationship

I decided ART is a ghostly dragon to me, the ship is its lair and its crew is its hoard.

Hi Murderbot fandom,

Murderbot has a fucking message for you.

[murderbot-moodboard]

I really like how System Collapse does bot language. Like the use of code/variables for bots to ask each other about things, and Murderbot explaining what it would mean in plain language. I find it very neat from a world-building perspective and as someone who likes programming.

Content warning for extreme capitalism and AI generated video:

I’ve just seen that this year’s Coca-Cola Christmas advert is generated using AI:

“None of the people featured in the new ad are real actors, they were all generated using AI”

Hahahaha! My head canon that the company is the Coca-Cola company is looking more and more sound 😉

Chatting in the Preservation Station about Gurathin and—he probably has a pet? He is a bit of a loner, but I think he’d like a pet fauna…

You can imagine Murderbot visiting Gurathin’s home on the planet (yeah, he doesn’t spend all his time on the station waiting for Murderbot to call him in the middle of the night when it needs help breaking into damaged transports —he does actually HAVE a life) and meeting the fauna which hides under the table and hisses at it

And Gurathin is just like, “Oh don’t mind Cheese Straws, it doesn’t mean it—it’s an old softy really…yeah, I do tend to wear gloves when I handle it, but it hardly ever draws blood…”

G: “Most of the time it just ignores me, unless it wants something…”

G: “Yeah, it sort of adopted me: it had abusive former owners and so I give it a lot of affection and don’t expect a lot back…”

MB: GLARES

G: “I mean it’s understandable that it doesn’t trust humans after what they…”

MB: GLARE INTENSIFIES

Gurathin: Grinds to an awkward halt, rubs his big brow, stares off into the distance like he is definitely regretting ALL his life choices

G: “We covered the whole pet robot thing during the rebuild after the gunship incident, right?”

MB: “I don’t like you”

Gurathin: “I know…oh look Starchy has jumped on your lap! Give its ears a scratch, it likes that…”

Alternatively, you can try using "[redacted]" to stand in for any mention of the things you don't want to explain (but if you do that for long enough, it'll probably become inconvenient enough that you give in and explain them anyway)

they should invent venting but without having to explain all the bad things that are happening

its unreal how all of my favorite characters have exactly the same traits and hobbies and diagnoses as me
