Murderbot's Pterrible Pterosaur Ptorment

Eva Stratt, meanwhile, is a stain. Graffiti tucked away in alleys and under bridges, forever painted over by the powers that be. A name meant to be forgotten. Stratt has always known this was part of the deal: after all, humanity needs a villain just as much as it needs its heroes. The best she can hope for is to be erased entirely on Earth.

I sat there, completely stunned. “What?”

It was sitting right next to me on the bench. Determinedly staring straight ahead.

“I said, I want to ask ART to marry me.”

Hearing the second time didn’t make me process the sentence any better. “No, I heard you the first time.” I replied. “I just never expected… I thought… I mean obviously I’m very happy for you two…”

A second question: does Murderbot have saliva? I don't know if saliva is necessary for speech or not. If Murderbot does have saliva, does it have to brush its teeth? Does it ever get bad breath?

Third question: Does Murderbot sweat? It's mentioned showering in Artificial Condition, Rogue Protocol, and Exit Strategy. After ART did surgery on it in Artificial Condition, it took a shower and said that it smelled like a clean human and how that was odd. If Murderbot does sweat, how does it get the water and electrolytes back without eating or drinking? Are they replenished during its recharge cycle?

a) you try to take one of them hostage but their SecUnit takes you hostage and embarrasses you in front of your crew instead

b) that bunch of humans finds out about alien contamination

c) for whatever reason they are roaming on surface

So you go on a mission to a remote separatist installation, possibly happy to be free from that bullshit, with a clear task

and then there's them again, and

d) they send their fuckass SecUnit instead of you know A REAL PERSON to a meeting with you, which, disrespectful

e) they prepare a video presentation or whatever, what the fuck is wrong with them

f) your colleagues backstab you right at the meeting with that fucking bunch

g) you have no choice but to follow the weirdos

h) All that:

some of the rooms have fully stocked pantries with cooking equipment, some have movies like the one described above, some have books you're allowed to just take but people always put back- every day people bring things from the outside. artists often set up galleries there. there are rooms with mattresses and hammocks set up for people to sleep. one of the room is just a place where people leave shoes for the fun of it.

How it actually ended

Tiger found caged in abandoned home gets second chance at wildlife sanctuary: ‘He seems to be so happy’

The estimated 350-pound tiger was transported to the facility, an affiliate of the Humane Society of the United States, on Wednesday afternoon, and is settling in well, Almrud said. There, he will have the chance to roam in enclosures of up to three acres.

Almrud, who estimates him to be about 2 years old, described the moment he first walked onto the grass at the sanctuary as remarkable.

“It was just amazing to see him walk out on grass and to see him explore and have that freedom of movement,” she said. “It was just such a reward and fulfilling to us.”

Now, he spends his days rolling around the grass in glee, Almrud said.

“He comes right up to the fence every time a staff member is present,” she said. “He seems very amenable to our presence.”

The tiger is eating well – a combination of chicken, humanely raised non-processed beef and whole prey complete with organs and bones. It appears that he was being fed chicken, which is what owners of exotic cats often feed them, but chicken alone does not provide the complete nutrition they need to thrive, Almrud said.

In addition, caregivers are tasked with keeping the tiger mentally stimulated by creating “pretend hunting” games and rotating him through different areas so he has access to new smells and environments to explore.

“He seems to happy and content,” Almrud said. “Our staff is just falling in love with him.”

His name is Loki now! In June he celebrated his 7th birthday at the sanctuary where he lives and thrives. Here’s a few pics of the boy:
