hedda62: my cat asleep (Default)
(Totally happy to do more commentaries, by the way.)

Trying to write a supper interlude in my current WIP, I thought about the evidence that Harold reads Asimov, and went to look up Multivac stories, and found All the Troubles of the World (Wikipedia summary; full text PDF is available for the searching), in which the Machine a crime-predicting Multivac plots against itself. I had totally forgotten about this. But I wonder if they're going there, eventually.

Clearly, too, if I was going to quote "The Waste Land," I should have considered the exchange with the Sibyl. "I want to die." Holy hell. What if this is why the Machine is cultivating Root? *head explodes*

In other news, after almost having a frost Monday night, we may finally be settling into a predictable period of warmth, though I wouldn't count out anything at this point. *shoots climate change in the kneecaps* *goes off to unwrap tomato plants*
