I was talking to my partner tonight about how terrible DSC is lab safety wise amd it was really funny.

“No eye washing stations, no signage indicating what type of lab it is, no fire alarms, no emergency alarms, only one fire extinguisher-“

“Well, there are more, but they’re right next to the live nuclear cores.”

And then she gave me the most horrified look like I was Clovis Bray and had built the space station myself.

update: the horrors use she/her pronouns <3

The recent conversation has just reminded me that yes, it is lore accurate for people to want to fuck the aliens, specifically Uluran. Though I do wonder how they got access to Uluran pinups.

had a brainwave last night about how awful the alien dildo designs must have been pre-friendly contact in the Last City and just had to draw it for...reasons

(as a biologist, drawing the left image physically hurt me. so now i must inflict it all on you too)

you came back wrong and i am racked with guilt because i cannot bear to see you like this and i should have let you rest. i loved you so much that i defied death itself but i do not think either of us are happy

Made a book! It is a test piece specifically for learning and Making Mistakes so I'm pleasantly surprised with how it came out tbh. The only thing I bought for it was a pack of cheap greyboard for the covers, the rest was junk I had lying around. Next time I'll grab some proper glue instead of using slightly watered down wood glue 😂

Lore books include Unveiling, Aspect, Constellations, Trials and Tribulations, Duress and Egress, Marasenna and Last Days on Kraken Mare

Crota could rip off my arm but I would still try and bonk my forehead against his

y'know, I think you can do a coherent reading of the Witness as an analogy for generative AI and now I've thought it I can't unthink it... (I do not think this was the intention of the writers but it kinda fits)

the Witness is incapable of creating anything original, anything it makes is just a remix or mockery of other things. It's soldiers, the Taken, the Shadow Legion, the Scorn, the Wrathborn, even the Hive, are all twisted versions of things that already exist - the Hive are a species it changed The Dread in Final Shape are looking to be warped versions of different species It's pyramid ships are terraforming parts of the Earth right now, and Terraforming is something that the Traveller does, but the Traveller brought life, while the Witness can only turn things into a sterile place devoid of life It rages against the Traveller because it wouldn't give them purpose, never understanding that purpose is what you create for yourself - the same way AI bros want to make art without actually doing any of the work or having any of the inspiration

Tbh I think Osiris was always into rope even before getting access to Strand. And that he self suspends as a way to sort of recreate the freeing feeling of floating with the light.
