inside my head
Thinking about tattoos…
if the dude who recognised my red dwarf jacket in a damaged society the other day is out there somewhere pls reveal urself to me i am absolutely kicking myself for not getting ur socials
i wonder how the rest of the world/solar system/wherever people were living at that point responded to the radiation leak on red dwarf, if they all knew it was a radiation leak that wiped them out or if that info didnt get back to most of them, if its remembered as a historical event like the titanic or chernobyl, or if its a mystery that spirals into a bunch of mad conspiracy theories like the bermuda triangle or the loch ness monster
does it go down in history as "the mysterious case of the disappearing crew of red dwarf" or is it commonly known as "the red dwarf radiation leak tragedy"? did holly manage to get the information back to them?? or did they not even know the crew disappeared at all & just saw the ship start ominously floating out into space without any explanation
if they do know it was a radiation leak do they know why it happened?? do they know it was because rimmer didnt fix the drive plate properly & if so did he become a historical figure as "the guy who wiped out the red dwarf crew" or do they just know it was a botched drive plate with no other specifics??
did they know there was still a guy in stasis on the ship who had survived?? did they ever try to go on a rescue mission to get him?? did they find out about the cat race evolving on the ship???

Gerard is so smiley throughout this interview.
oh yeah i forgot about this!! im going to assume due to this they didnt know it was rimmer that botched the drive plate job but itd be hilarious if they did and were still just like "yeah he was the one that wiped out the whole crew but he was the one they revived anyway"

if rimmer was half smart in mechocracy for his presidential campaign he couldve used anecdotes from his experience as a soft light hologram before he got his hard light drive .. like yeah to an extent he still wouldve been pulling absolute heaps of horseshit out of his ass but technically him being a hologram still makes him a machine in a way.
like when he was exclusively soft light he had a lot less actual autonomy as a machine as he most often had to rely on holly or the scutters to holographically project/do everything for him. if hed used that it wouldve added at least the tiniest grain of substance to his campaign but he just ... never mentioned that once & just focused on slagging kryten instead
we made fall out boy as little lego figures in the lego shop today
im trying to imagine what a red dwarf/doctor who crossover would be like and i cant decide which would be funnier between the doctor being in the red dwarf universe or the boys from the dwarf being in the doctor who universe
like on one hand we have the doctor who is usually the smart space/time know it all who knows just about everything about the universe and its existence and all that suddenly plonked in a universe where aliens dont actually exist, everything he comes into contact with ends up turning out to be a man-made gelf from earth, on a ship where he ends up knowing less about whats going on than the 4 greatest idiots existence can provide and hes just completely baffled at how theyve survived this long and continue to survive
and on the other hand we have the boys going rogue on the tardis & rimmer finally meeting actual aliens for the first time, lister would 1000% square up to a dalek or whatever it is they encounter while the doctor about drives himself mad trying to explain the danger of them and the boys r all just like "whatever weve seen weirder", kryten and the doctor exchanging sciencey-space knowledge & confusing each other with contradicting info from each of their respective realities, cat 100% would raid the tardis wardrobe and make fun of all the different fashion senses the doctors had over the years
met a bunch of red dwarf people at cons recently & have been collecting their autographs on my hamburger telephone
so far its been signed by doug naylor, hattie hayridge, craig charles, chris barrie, mark williams and danny john jules :D
