gosh but like we spent hundreds of years looking up at the stars and wondering “is there anybody out there” and hoping and guessing and imagining

because we as a species were so lonely and we wanted friends so bad, we wanted to meet other species and we wanted to talk to them and we wanted to learn from them and to stop being the only people in the universe

and we started realizing that things were maybe not going so good for us– we got scared that we were going to blow each other up, we got scared that we were going to break our planet permanently, we got scared that in a hundred years we were all going to be dead and gone and even if there were other people out there, we’d never get to meet them

and then

we built robots?

and we gave them names and we gave them brains made out of silicon and we pretended they were people and we told them hey you wanna go exploring, and of course they did, because we had made them in our own image

and maybe in a hundred years we won’t be around any more, maybe yeah the planet will be a mess and we’ll all be dead, and if other people come from the stars we won’t be around to meet them and say hi! how are you! we’re people, too! you’re not alone any more!, maybe we’ll be gone

but we built robots, who have beat-up hulls and metal brains, and who have names; and if the other people come and say, who were these people? what were they like?

the robots can say, when they made us, they called us discovery; they called us curiosity; they called us explorer; they called us spirit. they must have thought that was important.

and they told us to tell you hello.

this is far and away the most popular post i ever made on tumblr. people have asked me if they could illustrate it, people have asked me if they could turn it into a novella, people just messaged me to say it made them cry. that means more to me than i can say.

you probably heard that the mars opportunity rover died today. 

it was hard news to hear. i cried at my desk at work. it doesn’t make it easier that it was only supposed to run for 90 days at all; it doesn’t make it easier that it lived 14 years longer than it expected to. it lived a full life. it lived a very good life. it was the first set of eyes on miles and miles of mars. it was an explorer, it was tough, it was very, very brave. and none of that makes it easier, none of that makes it okay that it is not going to sing happy birthday to itself again.

about a year ago, my childhood cat died. i loved her more than anything. i don’t live near my family any more, and i wasn’t there for it, but my parents were, and they held her while her body gave out, and they say she knew she was with them, she knew she was loved.

i know opportunity was a computer inside a movable body, and not a person, or even an animal. still, i wish it had had people to hold it. i wish it had been with the people who cared for it. it seems very hard to me, to die so far from home.

but i think - to the extent to which we can say computers “know” things, which i think is a great deal; i think knowing is most of what computers do; i think if they have a consciousness, knowledge must be nearly all of it-

i think opportunity knew it was loved. 

every couple of months i dream that i’ve gone home and my cat’s there. even now, even though my grieving is over and done with, i visit her in my dreams, and i hold her, and every time, she purrs. she missed me. she’s so happy to be with me again.

that’s a very human thing, dreaming of what we’ve loved. what we’ve lost. dreaming things that outlast death. like robots, and singing.

Not a fic rec, but a wish list item:

Watching Deception on ABC - I now totally have the head canon that Cameron was the self sacrificing brother who volunteered to be the one on stage because it meant if something went wrong (which it has - he’s stated numerous times he’s been in the hospital), it happened to him, not Jonathan. And Jonathan was/is the mastermind because SOMEONE had to make sure the tricks were safe, and it clearly wasn’t going to be their dad.

I need a fic. Like. Stat. Heeeelp.

Thinking about how Alan Wake's and Hadestown's stories could in any way complement each other. Orpheus is Wake in the loop, without someone showing him that this can become a spiral. Or, in a sense, what makes Hadestown a complete tragedy, and Wake's story a hopeful one that everything will be resolved in the end, is that Orpheus's journey was never meant to be a spiral; it was always meant to be a loop with no way out.

The amount of racism I’ve seen against The Odyssey’s casting on Chinese/Mandarin/Cantonese speaking social media platforms is INSANE.

There are people saying “if she were smart enough she’d turn down this kind of role that are originally white,” “this DEI is actually a propaganda to trying and make people hate POC,” “They should just stick to their own characters and no one will complain, like Sinners and Black Panther” sir WTF ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT, and to throw around N words like that WHAT THE FAQ

these people are (I can guarantee)yellow ass East Asians THEY AREN’T EVEN WHITE

And there’s no solution to this because they are so caught in their fantasy that they’ve convinced themselves to be treated as an equal to white ppl, they refuse to even learn about any of the problems!!!!!

(I should probably clarify that I myself am an East Asian
