Gaby Hoffman could be good. If they cast someone conventionally pretty and bland (Jenna Coleman, Vanessa Hudgens, etc.) I will be outraged.

I approve! Go out and campaign for it, Sean Young style!
Who will play Isabella Blow?!?
I thought straight guys couldn’t tell if other guys were attractive!
“while he was parked outside our house”
Maybe before JP got a Whole Foods. Now you have to move to Roslindale or Revere or Quincy. Have fun with that shit.
Excellent point. Without a glitch that guy would have been carving away much longer. But they were in his tent, versus being carried openly in the street. And Maeve felt the need to hide the drawings, not just stick them in a drawer. Maybe different hosts get different levels of scrutiny by the programmers based on…
And Curious George, where I worked for years!
I feel you, left Boston 5+ years ago, no way we could afford it now. Hell, even businesses in Harvard Square keep shuttering cause the only entities that can afford such rent are banks and Starbucks.
I went to grad school there, the undergrads were so hostile to any and every attempt by campus workers to organize. I have heard Harvard undergrads say incredibly ignorant and cruel things about homeless people and waitresses that would seem like satire if they weren’t uttered with the total conviction of privilege.…
Ummmm.... that dude was so white he looked like T2 Edward Furlong made out of mayonnaise and wonderbread, are you fucking kidding me?!?
“Too much, and now the android is being driven largely by internal rather than external forces, and that can spell trouble.”
I’m reminded of how vaccines are a victim of their own success. We’ve gone so long without polio and measles epidemics because of vaccines, so people get deluded into thinking vaccines are unnecessary. People likewise forget that women still die in childbirth in the 21st century, and that illegal abortions are even…
Because I am a historian of slavery and see the consciousness raising of the androids as a brewing slave rebellion I really really really really really hope the awakening of the androids is self-initiated, not provoked for the pleasure or curiosity of one of the programmers!
I’ve also been thinking a ton about how the sex workers talk about some customers being better sex than others. So they’ve been deliberately programmed to not enjoy sex with all the clients (lots of remarks about penis size, for example). Which makes me think either the programmers are sadists who don’t care if the…
That was horrifying! To realize that time and time again she has remembered those entities, but recognizing a pattern isn’t enough to break the cycle!
Starred for the scariness of the boy’s description AND for teaching me that I concept I sort of knew about (pareidolia) had a name! Down the wikipedia pareidolia rabbit hole I go!
My SO was a trampire for Halloween a few years back, but the fake blood left red stains on his chin and chest. He also didn’t fully wash off the eyeliner or mascara, and someone had blown glitter on us (Oh, New Orleans). The next morning there was a break in a gas main on our block, my SO threw on a bathrobe and went…
well that’s horrifying! So many possible explanations for what you found, few of them good.
The first one in particular is terrifying!!! This deserves many more stars!!!
