Joyce knows where she stands.
I support Kelly Marie Tran, and oppose toxic fandom that aims to control content through online violence/trolling.
(and beside the point, Rose Tico was probably my favorite character in the new film)

An artificial intelligence that bonds with your body, makes you immortal and indestructible, and obeys your every command. Because it knows your mind, it does what you mean, not what you say. I’d want one.
Jabby has too much attitude for me to sign up.
I knew I would love Joyce.
I love Joyce.
She probably became rich on Earth by looking gift-horses in the mouth… on the sly… and then bargaining.
And Rose Tico IS Awesome!
As much as I LOVE Choan and am giddy to see her again, your portrait of Kelly Marie Tran as Rose made my day!
Whatever you feel about Rose Tico, Kelly Marie Tran did a great job with what was handed to her. She does not deserve the toxic garbage being thrown at her. 🙁
Choan and Joyce. No greater team out there.
Just for the record, fandom has always been a bit toxic. Axes to grind that would give Conan a hernia. But back then the toxic stuff and obsessions just showed up in fanzines and mimeo sheets, and not transmitted all over the planet on public forums.
Nowadays, we’ve given the guy in the park on the soapbox an international stage to play on. How did we think this would end up?
Oh, Joyce. You SO disappoint me.
I was sure you’d hold out for at least a third of the net.
No, I figured she’d start negotiating at 20% and let herself get talked down to 15%.
She seems more like a “gross revenue” sort to me.

Do you recall the kinds of ideas that flow through out minds? Think such a device in your very brain and it cannot distinguish which you would actually do. The A. I. would have to be going through the brain filter we all carry called the Frontal Lobe to be able to do that. The last to form and the first to start shrinking. Though the shrinking doesn’t affect intelligence. Just our ability to filter out the junk so as you get older you start saying what is being generated.
Now imagine it is Jabby who would react to it including those that think about killing or mutilating someone? I would not like the A.I. attached.
If I do not mean for it to do something, it won’t do it. Anything I would not act on, it would not act on. I might consider killing someone, but we wouldn’t do it. A Jabby wouldn’t be designed into it. ChoanEvans Biotechnics wouldn’t want to be sued.
I didn’t immediately realize you were quoting Coyoty, and thought I had missed a reference to Gunnerkrigg Court 😀
I liked Rose Tico too, and as a straight white male who has been a fan of Star Wars since it first premiered, I totally don’t get all this fan-boy rage against the new trilogy. The fuck is wrong with people?
Yeah, Rose was a sweetheart! In fact, I quite enjoyed The Last Jedi as a whole.
This is the city////galaxy.
It holds a million stories.
My job is to tell them.
Sit down, this may take a while.
oh, and I like the three lamps
Must… not… make… radical… leftist… joke…
