WHAT DO I NEED TO DO TO MAKE THIS FUTURE MEET THIS PRESENT.

Drifting ever further into my bullshit about Perihelion and Holism having some kind of bitter-rivals-with-benefits thing going on. They can't fucking stand each other, but the dating pool for miracle of science AIs is surprisingly shallow. They keep matching on AI Grindr and beggars can't be choosers. Holism is a smug bastard but it also does that thing Perihelion really likes that it's embarrassed to ask for. Perihelion is an arrogant bitch but it's either that or hook up with bot pilots, and have you tried having a discussion about planetary infrastructure with those things? Pitiful. Pillow talk is important, too, you know.

They're irritatingly prim with each other in public because of mutually assured destruction. If that cold war ever turns hot some truly astounding gossip will be making the rounds of the university upper faculty.

I’m tired of advertising. All of it. I don’t want any ads even for things I like. Even if I would 100% buy it. It’s INSANE that we just accept that people can throw a business flier in our face at any time of day in any setting. Aren’t you mad? Don’t you just want to go apeshit?

Don Abena’s voice echoing through MB’s mind: SECUNIT! Your poor hand!!

iris: (sees murderbot’s hand with its missing fingers, and gaping hole in the centre)

iris: AH YOUR HAND

murderbot: it’s fine

murderbot: (leans over and bullets fall out of its body)

addicted to saying "ill definitely check that out" about things that i will definitely forget to check out

Ship AIs, if your SecUnit

Has fuffy hair

Loves watching Media

Drink all your cola and call you an asshole

That’s not your SecUnit. THATS MY SECUNIT

GET OFF MY SECUNIT AND FIND YOUR OWN

The workplace safety sign Murderbot really wants to put up (while looking pointedly at Thiago).

[The original sign says, "Remember! There's nothing punk rock about ignoring forklift safety and procedures"]
