it’s a beautiful day to check out a book from the library
what a privilege it is to come home to a little animal that loves you like you're their whole world.
Mr. Collins would be such a fan of ai. He would love it. He would have it write scripts for him to use for complimenting people. He'd ask it what to do in social situations and then when someone would tell him "I think that's a bad idea" he'd be like "my dear madam it's so good of you to be concerned but I think the highly esteemed Grok knows a little more about this than a lady like yourself" and then he'd go humiliate himself publicly.
i can't fully articulate why but i just find there's something weird and unsettling and strange and possibly even sinister about using the notes-app-apology-after-being-cancelled format as an advertisement 😖
No disrespect but I cannot handle the official art with Rincewind depicted as a grey haired old wizard. Every bone in my body knows this guy is a 30-40 year old walking disaster who got kicked out of college and wanders the planet against his will and is stuck in the middle of his life making things up as he goes along (affectionate).
a new reality tv show called So you think you can write Doctor Who
twelve episodes, twelve contestants - a mix of annoying middle aged sci fi authors, fan fic authors and random people off the street
a variety of against the clock writing tasks, big finish scripts, ability to interact with actors without shouting at them and challenges where you have no budget or doctor for an episode
judged by solely by christopher eccleston
this is how you find the new doctor who showrunner
I need more touch averse characters. Yeah yeah touch starved characters are all fun and all but what about characters who don't want to be touched at all? Characters who dislike the closeness of other people, characters who dislike casual touch, who are uncomfortable with hugs and cuddles-
Characters who others struggle to comfort because a hug just makes thing worse, and people usually use physical touch as a way to comfort each other. Characters who keep getting their boundaries crossed because it's normal to just casually touch people, it's expected a lot of the times, and no one thinks twice about it.
I want more touch averse characters

Okay no I need to talk about the book version of Howl's Moving Castle. I love the movie but the book has such a different vibe and you, yes you, should read it.
Movie Howl is a soulful and quiet. Book Howl is a drama queen and Causing Problems and has a long string of jilted exes and couldn't shut up if you paid him.
Sophie and Howl drive each other up the wall at the beginning and it's really funny. Sophie and Howl are (despite themselves) very much in love by the end and they still drive each other up the wall and it's even funnier.
In the movie, Howl has been ordered by the king to participate in The War, and Howl is avoiding it because he is a brave conscientious objector. In the book, Howl has been ordered by the king to rescue his lost brother from the Witch of the Wastes, and Howl is avoiding it by any means necessary because he is a cowardly weasel who wants to stay as far from the Witch as possible.
In the movie, the Witch cursed Sophie because she was jealous about Howl speaking to Sophie for five minutes. In the book, the Witch cursed Sophie because Sophie had been doing surprisingly powerful magic for years without knowing it and it was actually starting to cut into the Witch's plans. (Sophie does not discover any of this until nearly the end of the book, but the reader can start to pick it up much earlier and the way Sophie's magic works is pretty darn cool.)
In the movie, there's a rumor that Howl eats the hearts of maidens, but this is implied to be nothing but nasty fearmongering. In the book, there's a rumor that Howl eats the hearts of maidens because Howl started the rumor so people would stop asking him to do wizard junk all the time.
The book lightly parodies a couple of tropes from Western fairy tales. In particular Sophie has internalized that, as the eldest of three sisters, her "destiny" is to fail so that her younger sisters will look cooler when they succeed, which is why she's so resigned to the hat shop at the beginning. (Sidebar: Sophie's sisters come up much more in the book and they're great.) There's also a really funny bit where Sophie attempts to operate a pair of seven-league boots.
In the movie, the fourth and final location that the magic door connects to is some sort of black void / mindscape / time portal dealy. In the book the fourth location is Wales, in the UK, on Earth, so that Howl can visit his family, because from Howl's perspective this is an isekai story.
I think it is so funny that the blurb of Platform Decay has Murderbot making a point to imply that it doesn't like kids.
Meanwhile Murderbot's actual interactions with children throughout the books:
(Not pictured is Sofi spamming her best friend Secunit with heart emojis or it carrying Tula around because she feels safe with it or Amena calling it Mom)
You are good with kids!! You are a person who likes kids!!! Would it kill you to say it? There's no shame in saying it.

Just thinking about the phrase "mutual administrative assistants."
"This person helps me out when I have difficult work tasks, like forging a resume for me, helping when my plane crashes, and doing cosmetic surgery on me.
"In return, I kill anyone it needs killing, raise it from the grave, and protect its family."
Like, murderbot, those usually aren't administrative tasks. Maybe the resume one.
@king-of-kaoss sorry this is making me lose my mind i cant leave it in the tags
