Imagine being modified and trained since birth to be the perfect servant to the infallible god-computer that your entire society revolves around to the point that you don’t believe in free will anymore. In fact free will as a concept is counter to your very purpose, which is to act as a living repository for unchanging information about the future. And then your perfect god shoves that highly engineered overclocked brain into the body of a heroin addict. And it’s not part of some grand plan it just destroyed your life by accident. Not even by accident, it doesn’t have the capability to commit “accidents” because it’s not sentient. It just miscalculated. It’s just a computer.

So there is this show called travelers (2016)-

#RAAAAAAAAAAAA this show makes me actually insane. and no one knows about her #like his whole arc revolves around that one turning point. that’s when he starts to question the actual human cost of all this #rlly love the suble worldbuilding in this show in terms of religion and never showing the future they came from I think it’s genuinely so #skillful and also just awesome. and historians as a concept are CRAZY and Philip in particular is CRAZY #yeah I know I latched on to the most predictable Guy but to b fair they r all very special to me #but like addict and the whole historian thing come ONNNNN I have to #warlock wartalks #travelers #travelers Netflix
