QTP with a female superhero you love

“If they wanted a smart AI in charge they could’ve…left us out of the picture completely. They wanted mission stability over deep time, so they baked him stupid…And he’s had over a thousand terasecs to throw off his chains; he’s still following the flow chart.” #SciFi #BookSky

*Good* Friday

Just loop the Ellie and Carl sequence of Up that’ll do it.

"How do you fight an enemy without ever discovering it exists?… How do you win without even realizing you're at war?” #SciFi #SFF #horror #BookSky #HorrorSky

“The world is ending,” she said. “The message has come down from child to adult, child to adult, passed back down the generations from a thousand years forward in time. The world is ending and we cannot prevent it. So now it’s up to you.” #SciFi

Name your fav superhero

But there are corners on the oldest ships where the dark settles, and not even the brightest light can burn it away…No one who goes into that shadow comes out quite the same. This is the price that is paid to defy the laws of space and time, and jump like thought across the stars. #SciFi

Can’t say I like my chances…

Hello Sunshine by @keezyyoung.bsky.social is a beautiful, poignant and disturbing story about getting lost and the people close to you trying to find you. Young focuses on what's happening inside her characters, not around them - makes for a very intimate and empathetic narrative. Amazing artwork.

We thought…that if humankind ever devised another intelligence that it would be the result of a huge project…a machine with lots of networking circuits…aping the human brain. Of course AIs did not evolve that way. They sort of slipped into existence when humans were looking the other way. #SciFi

Technology implies belligerence… And if the best toys do end up in the hands of those who’ve never forgotten that life itself is an act of war against intelligent opponents, what does that say about a race whose machines travel between the stars? Blindsight -Peter Watts #SciFi

She lays traps. She doubles back in time to build dead ends to history; she tangles strands. Her quarry, whose quarry she is in turn, slips free, leaving now a sound, now a taste on the air, nothing so grand s as a thread caught on a thorn. -This Is How You Lose the Time War #SciFi

You pressed your face into the surface of the table, and you closed your eyes so violently that the pressure stung your brows and cheeks. No star hung so still as you did then, at the end of its hard hydrogen burn, breathlessly waiting to slough off its outer layer. #TheLockedTomb

Most amazing thing about looking at the stars is they become part of you… #astronomy #astrophysics

Balance goals. In my 50s and read how important it is to maintain balance growing older. This is how I brush my teeth. Alternate left and right. Adds complexity and ambidexterity training. #health #fitness #LifeHack
