Insane oversimplification and economy, politics and doom

But the politicians also want to be the winner.

"But since the thing that happened I don’t think I’ve had an emotion that wasn’t the visual equivalent of a wet blanket crumpled on a floor."

What a great image of depression. Reminds me of Bilbo's "like bitter scraped over too much bread". And wow, poor Murderbot.

"It was a problem with humans from Preservation, who thought of negotiation as “let’s figure out how to solve this problem in a way everyone is happy or at least okay with,” and there was a 96 percent chance that literally nobody else in the Corporation Rim, even across all the different human cultures that the different corporations operated under, thought of it like that."

Yes. Been there, done that, as every rational person in politics of any kind.

"I asked because the humans would bug me for the information; I was as indifferent to human gender as it was possible to be without being unconscious."

Are there any examples of societies who know about trauma, have therapy options available, and the traumatized person just... uses them, like they would a treatment for a wounded leg? Maybe grumping about healing so slowly, but using them anyway? Instead of all this "I don't need that" stuff.

We need positive role models, yo! Mental health is health too!

Murderbot: System Collapse!!! (WARNING: mildly spoiler-ish)

Any Murderbot fans?

For context: I LOVE LOVE LOVE this series! Easily one of my favs of all time. I've listened to the audiobooks so many times I've legit lost count.

Devoured System Collapse today. Honestly it's probably the weakest in the series & was a bit disappointing. But it's still Murderbot so, you know, I'm good lol.

So anyway. Anyone else read it yet? Thoughts?

When should I consume #SystemCollapse?

Having a private room at the hospital was a nice quiet break, but honestly after finishing #SystemCollapse I was getting bored and restless. And I started hearing that telltale cough in the lobby... 😬 #COVIDIsAirborne

And the air was so dry! I went thru so much hand cream, lip balm and nasal spray. Should have brought eye drops too.

Anyway, nice to be home.

It always throws me slightly that the figure on the "System Collapse" cover looks a bit like Sméagol crouching near the water in the movie. At least when I see only the preview thumbnail of the ebook.

"I know I get pissed off when humans don’t acknowledge my work, but why is too much acknowledgment also upsetting? Sentience sucks."

I feel that surprisingly strongly. Huh.

"Cloud Sun Harbor University Press" sounds like the university is the merger of three smaller ones coming from the Books of the Raksura #SystemCollapse
