Like, I Knew Shepherding Was A Boring Job

This is about Sci-Hub. yeah we get it.. gatekeep knowledge and protect the interests of capital…

So one of my neighbors has a lawn Roomba or whatever they're called, and this thing trundles around looking like a background robot in the background of the original trilogy, and ABSOLUTELY BAFFLING THE DOGS.

They have concluded, I think, that it's some kind of prey animal because right after this video ended they decided to crouch down and stalk it, which means I'm 90% sure I'm going to have to stop Arwen from eating it at some point.

Concept: combine the “you don’t know you live on a death world until you leave it” trope with the whole Cthulhu-in-space genre of weird fiction, except in reverse: humanity’s Special Thing™ is that humans (and, by extension, all terrestrial life-forms) are weirdly resistant to reality-bending bullshit, which is what lets us survive and build a relatively functional civilisation in spite of hailing from a world that plays host to multiple Other Gods – which is, of course, otherwise unheard of; having even one of those squamous bastards in the neighbourhood is generally enough to ruin a whole star system’s day.

Non-human vessels can’t approach within a dozen light years of Sol without their crews being driven mad by the corrosive psychic resonance emanating from Earth’s deepest oceans, and we’re wandering around living our lives and not noticing. Aliens can never travel on human ships because our FTL drives kind of maybe tunnel through Hell, a process that horribly warps non-terrestrial life, and we just think it looks pretty when the n-dimensional hellfire coruscates across the viewports.

This sort of thing kept humanity uncontacted for a long time, until the aliens’ observers eventually figured out that we weren’t a bunch of weirdly normal-looking elder thralls, we just straight up weren’t aware there was a problem. It’s only then that they arranged first contact – remotely, of course – to basically ask “dude, what the fuck?”

(Humans are reasonably well-integrated into the galactic community these days, though most worlds enforce strict screening and quarantine procedures before allowing a Terran traveller planetside; it’s just like a human to have a class 7 epistemivore hitchhiking in their brain, and when informed, go “you know, I have been getting these headaches lately”.)

Ok so think about this

Inside Out but instead of having emotions there would be the 4 most prominent traits of the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator . So instead of the same set of emotions on every person,people would have one of the 16 sets of personalty that exist.

What do you think?

*sigh* everytime

Circular Reasoning

INTP: *hears something that goes against values* INTP: *climbs on top of soapbox* INTP: *raises finger* INTP: *states opinion* INTP: “Actually-” INTP: “Wait-” INTP: “Unless, of course-” INTP: “But then again-” INTP: *realizes they don’t know what they believe* INTP: *stands on soapbox for the next 20 years in an existential crisis*

I had a nightmare last night.

I was a reporter.
