okay so hey if you want to read that WoW RP-inspired story I wrote a few days ago I posted it to AO3 and it's here: http://archiveofourown.org/works/11404584
(please read it and praise me)
(authors need praise like weeds need sunshine)
(thank you for your attention)
of course he brought up Elon Musk and "nesting realities" quantum quantum the Matrix quantum
and then he started burbling about Doctor Who and I wasn't gonna let *that* stand. of course when I corrected him he completely ignored me and went back to conspiracy theory "fun facts"
I legit have no idea what he's talking about. "coriolis effect doesn't exist" "yet it's taught in schools and can't be found by any gyroscope yet taught to effect and be found by gyroscopes" wat
That whole "lol if you grew up in the 80s onwards you were promised a seedy cyberpunk dystopia not anything nice."
a) Optimistic Scifi continued throughout the mainstream media during the peak of the cyberpunk movement.
b) Cyberpunk at its genesis & its core was prophetic, not a 'promise'.
It was "Stop f*ing the world up or this will happen to our kids", not "Hey kids, guess what you've got to look forward to".
