"sorry That Probably Doesn't Make Much Sense"

it’s crazy how much diversity there can be in one species…these are all pictures of the same bird species (red-tailed hawk)

the nuisance of our language is stunning

I made a thing. Based on a true story. +/- one ceiling cave-in

loudly going "YOU'RE GOOD YOU'RE GOOD" to myself to ward off the memory of every embarrassing thing i've ever done

I know this sounds like the deranged ramblings of a senile old man but I swear it used to be possible to look up information on the internet

Maybe for Jod to finally die, he has to stop being loved by Alecto?

Hold on. Hold on. Noticing a pattern.

Jod said when they were shutting down the cryo project, the bodies that didn't rot were the ones that he personally said goodbye to, the ones he loved.

Jod cannot die, has not been able to die in ten thousand years. Alecto assures him, "I still love y—" .

The cavaliers of Lyctors, as evidenced by Naberius and Gideon, their bodies don't rot.

Tamsyn Muir assured us, regarding Alecto, we have not begun to see the horrors of love.

It me. Mildly domesticated but longing for the outdoors.

Murderbot, when interacting with anything: thinks in a string of biting asides and sardonic observations in between pondering death, mayhem and carnage. Also Murderbot, when confronted with an even more sarcastic transport ship's snark: You SNARK Miette? You SNARK MIETTE LIKE I'M A VULNERABLE EMOTIONAL BEING THAT WANTS TO FEEL SAFE? Oh OH! Jail for giant hyperintelligent transport ship! etc.

I absolutely think adults, especially parents, ascribe manipulative intent to children when they shouldn't and it's absolutely a problem but it's always kind of funny to me when people go online and proclaim that children are incapable of manipulation. When I was three I asked my mom to get my older sibling their favorite candy bar at the grocery story because I knew she'd get me mine too as a reward for being thoughtful and that was way more likely to succeed than if I just asked for a candy bar for me. And it worked. Children scheme at a developmentally appropriate level the trick is not assuming children scheme at an adult level.
