“I think it says so much about their connection and their friendship that all Murderbot has to say is, ‘I need to check the perimeter,’ and Gurathin knows exactly the implications of that.”
It was utterly lovely!

A self-indulgent sketch of dr. Gurathin from Murderbot, which I recently watched and became obsessed about. You can't judge me. There was no chance I'd get past these two anxious, socially awkward, depressed augmented human and construct.

Interesting that 'resilience teaching' has failed in schools ... couldn't one reason for that be that 'resilience' isn't a cure for bullying, or bad teaching, or a trauma that nobody has helped with? Kids are told to 'learn resilience' when it's often the stressors that really need to change.
We need to feel some stress to achieve our best, but if we feel too much, we can flounder. That’s where resilience comes in.
We talk a lot about being ‘resilient’. But what does it actually mean?

If you need a short-ish break from the real disasters, you might enjoy the adventures of my S&S heroine, the lovable (?) disaster knight Thevin Galois!
The City of Tears by @mollytanzer.bsky.social was lovely. Heartfelt, crisp in its prose, and delighting in invention, its secrets revealed like peeling back the petals of a rose one at a time. And amazingly, Beneath Ceaseless Skies are sharing it for free! Read it now before they change their minds!
If anyone wants to take a break from the constant horrors, my sapphic S&S psycho-epic “The City of Tears” is free to read over at @bcsmagazine.bsky.social. This is my first appearance in this venerable magazine and I couldn’t be prouder. www.beneath-ceaseless-skies.com/stories/the-...

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die.
Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

This whole exercise feels like the TV show LOST. We’re trying to discern the importance of the smoke monster and a bunch of cryptic numbers when really we’re all just dead. 🤷
