Who is your favorite character in Westworld? Follow up question if you could design a land what would it be?

thatravenclawbitch:

Maeve Millay hands down.

I would create some sort of high fantasy world where the hosts were elves and orcs and dwarves and there were quests where you fought a dragon or, even better, could ride a dragon. There’d be castles and endless forests and magic and it would be all my nerd dreams come true. 

If we’re going with actual historical periods? Renaissance Florence. You could assassinate a Medici or have Botticelli paint you or something. 

I’d design a science fiction world and populate it with aliens that actually look alien instead of rubber forehead people.

you know what space travel media is sorely lacking in? superstitions.

don’t give me any bs about future enlightenment eradicating superstition humans are humans and we can barely conceptually handle the sea let alone the Void where there’s far too much room for the mind to wander

on the sea you never stack the cans with the label upside down, lest the ship capsize

in the stars you never crush the cans, lest the fragile walls between you and the abyss be crushed

Janelle monae is releasing a 50min sci-fi film with dirty computer, which is about a character who is on the run from an authoritarian
government in a dystopian future to avoid the erasure of her memory, she searches for her love interest played by (tessa thompson) and each
music video in the film represents one of the missing
memories.

apparently the movie is about a subversive group of black, brown and
queer people (set in a future closer than cindy mayweather’s), who are labeled as “deviants” and have their
memories forcefully erased. you can read about it here

turing-tested:

male ai: arcs about the realization of their humanity and independence, what it means to be alive, always the god, sometimes the son

female ai: love arcs despite their naivety regardless of their knowledge oft being infinitesimal, likened to children despite their love arcs, always the daughter, sometimes the mother

me, eternally bitter:
