One thing Voyager didn't get right is those bigass flashlights on their arms—we have better tech than that right now.

I'd read about this episode, and that was fucked up. 😖

Next time, more toxic masculinity please.🙂

I like to think that the inhabitants continued to exist in a separate timeline, rather than "dying" or being "un-existed."

I honestly think Klingons are some sort of cross between privateers and Samauri.

I didn't think anyone could come up with a new variation on the time loop premise, but this one, for me, is totally novel.

I'm about to finish the Children of Time trilogy by Adrian Tchaikovsky. What a ride

The first book was like: oh wow, how refreshing and innovative

Second book: more of that, but definitely weirder

Third book: What the actual fuck is going on here!?

Reading
The intelligent spiders have caught a human. Because it doesn't respond to their 3d language they express via threads they conclude it is a simple being not capable of much. It must be some kind of servend like their males.

Recently finished _Children of Ruin_, the second book in Adrian Tchaikovsky's Children of Time series. They use the concept of of non-human animals to

1. show how hard it would be to communicate with aliens (as finding common ground for communication with earth born intelligences is still very difficult)

2. take the time to find that common understanding rather than rashly resorting to violence

- 1600 pages or so for a subtext of "we're going to have to learn to get along with our enemies & 'the other'"

“Avrana Kern tends to expand to fit the computational space available. Helena wonders if she possessed similar qualities when alive and in her human body.”

I really identify with Kern in the children of time series

Could there be another reality in which they still exist? 🤔

They could just fly back to the planet and voluntarily stay there couldn’t they?
