  • 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.


  • 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.









  • First things first, fuck this article and fuck their ugly-ass AI slop.

    Secondly, I’m not gonna comment on the legality or what is protected under 1st amendment- it’s not my expertise. Negy is a piece of shit and everyone I knew who had him as a professor was glad he was gone. His hateful comments weren’t reserved for twitter - he said that shit during his lectures. I also suspect his tweets were a stunt to drum up sales for a book he published around the same time. It’s so easy to sell to conservative morons. Just say some inappropriate things, cry like a baby when the consequences of your actions appear, then hold out your hand as hicks, the sexually repressed, and just plain assholes come flocking to empty their wallets for you.
