LIGHT SPOILERS FOR THE WHOLE SERIES
Having read the series, I was at first a bit put off by Murderbot’s interpretation to the screen. It’s a little cheesier so far - the survey crew for example. And I never got that Murderbot was so outwardly awkward when dealing with humans. It hates it, sure, and sometimes it slips up and lets its emotions show, but typically it was capable of being socially competent (as in pretending not to be rogue - and eventually pretending to be human). I don’t recall the “speech” scene happening in the book. There are also a few lore changes so far.
That being said, I’m enjoying the TV series as its own thing. But I definitely recommend the books to anyone who prefers hard sci-fi.
The queer community deserves a better flag. The rainbow was great and made sense - the whole spectrum of the rainbow; everybody. Now it’s just displeasing to look at with clashing colors. Maybe a vexillologist can chime in to put that into better words.
This is not a critique of people, just my opinion of this flag.
