major league hockey fan watching ilya kiss shane’s helmet at the 2017 all star game and posting “god had to put ilya rozanov and shane hollander on rival teams because otherwise they’d be having so much gay sex they wouldn’t have time for hockey” and then a few years later reblogging themselves like “WELL”

Look I don’t wanna bitch but if your Tumblr fic takes longer to scroll past than the Do You Love The Colour Of The Sky post then it would be kinda appreciated if you put the majority of it under a Read More button

I love The Murderbot Diaries because it reads like fanfiction of The Murderbot Diaries. “Murderbot finally has to acknowledge its PTSD when the symptoms start to endanger its work, surrounded by loving friends who do their best to help it accept that it has value as a person not just a tool” is a fanfiction plot. “ART isn’t allowed to do the accounting because it cooks the books for no reason” is something Tumblr would make up. And yet.
I’m reading fanfic of Murderbot and just let me say that I keep forgetting the Argument Lounge is a term in the source material and was not made up for fanfic.
Murderbot specifically names its sabotage files:
1) CodeBundle.LockItDown
2) CodeBundle.FuckThem
3) CodeBundle.FuckThisTooAnd that is a real thing that happened in canon.
#ART and murderbot canonically make a baby that embodies both of their personalities#(for those who don’t read murderbot- murderbot 2.0 [ie ART and murderbots baby] is the one who named the sabotage files)
I love 2.0 because it was specifically killware, like it was made for a purpose and that purpose was to destroy a hostile system and die in the process, and someone’s like “hey are you two sure you want to make a suicide baby, this might have emotional ramifications, you’re probably gonna feel bad about this” and they’re both like “no it’s fine we’re not squishy humans it’s different for us” and then after it’s made it talks to both of them on separate occasions and they’re both like “you know I feel kinda bad about this” and 2.0 is like “shouldn’t have made me killware then, sucks to be you” and has no conflicting emotions about its fate whatsoever
#i loooooove how bots and their functions work in tmbd#of course mb2.0 has no comflicting emptions abt its purpose. thats its Purpose!#just like mb wants to do security and ART wants to do research and teaching (and corporate espionage). thats their purposes!!#its just sooo tasty#the contrast between MIs with a function that is central to their sense of self and wellbeing#and humans who are cartoonishly adaptable#makes for some GREAT drama (see the end of ASR)#tmbd
I loved the part where the comfortunit tried to get MB on board with Killing All Humans and MB and ART were like “a human definitely told it to say that, a construct would never want to do that” because like. If there were no humans then who would MB do security for? What would be the endpoint of ART’s research? Who would the comfortunit even comfort? NOT a well thought out long-term plan, to deprive everyone of their purpose.
my favorite thing about that sequence is that MB describes ART as metaphorically “clutching its function” in the same way an overwrought Victorian lady might clutch her pearls.

You know how kids are supposed to be exposed to some level of dirt and grime as they grow up so their immune systems can learn what’s a deadly disease and what just causes some slight irritation? And if a kid grows up in a too clean environment they’re likely to develop severe allergies or a hyper immune disorder?
I think the over sanitation of the internet is doing similar things to people’s psyche.
No that ship with an age gap isn’t the same as pedophilia, you’re just having the moral equivalent to hay-fever.

Servant: Your highness, a party of adventurers has answered your call for help.
King: Excellent. What are they like?
Servant: One of them is a dragon-lady.
King: Interesting. Those are rare around these parts.
Servant: Another is a goblin paladin.
King: Not a role you usually see goblins in.
Servant: A third is a purple-skinned tiefling.
King: I didn’t even know they come in that color.
Servant: The last one is a sapient gelatinous cube.
King: What. How did these four even meet?
Servant: They met in a tavern two hours ago, apparently.
Queen: My love, please return to bed.
King: *pacing* Why would a gelatinous cube come to a tavern? Can it even get drunk? How did it fit through the doors?
All-cubes party
Which character would you play?
Dragon-lady
Goblin paladin
Purple-skinned tiefling
Sapient gelatinous cube
Hypothesis debunked.
I’m not even disappointed about being wrong, I love that it’s kinda evenly balanced?
(The Dragon-lady got my vote too lmao, shouldn’t have underestimated the amount of lesbians and strong-woman-kinners on this site)
