Murderbot is life. PLATFORM DECAY by @marthawells.com is up next in the series. Look for this treasure May 5 as our favorite SecUnit hilariously learns how to cope with emotions while, as always, rescuing and protecting hapless humans. @macmillanlib.bsky.social #ewgc

This reminds me of SecUnit in Network Effect having a conversation with someone asking
"Do [these raiders] just hate research?" and saying that some raiders had invaded ships for reasons that are that stupid

Reposting to correct an error: trump admin is quietly gutting 13 buildings and about 100 laboratories at Goddard campus that has been instrumental to Hubble and James Webb telescope missions. Staff say they’ve be locked and told to move equipment. Anything left behind will be thrown away.
NASA may be quietly gutting an iconic campus with what it calls strategic closures, workers fear

… best book series I‘ve ever read! I mean, in what other book do you read sentences like this: "It is like retrieving an endangered client, only the client is a SecUnit and the humans are planning the retrieval. And the transport is angry because it wants to plan the retrieval." Pure gold! 3/3

That's from All Systems Red.

If we look into the method of Murderbot (books) as a series, the idea of each episode is a principle of addition/escalation
One new type of more difficult enemy
One new more complicated social situation for SecUnit
One further step into burnout/collapse for SecUnit refusing to treat its trauma
