Senior narrative designer for World of Warcraft. Science fiction nerd. Recovering academic. That jerk who made you cry about an earthen. Opinions mine because no one else wants them.

There was a time when people looked to the future, knew it would look different than the past, and took joy in that. Where did that joy go? Why are we moving backwards? Why do we think moving back is the solution instead of trying new things and moving forward?

It starts moving and he can't help trying to hitch a ride in it or on it as it moves. Of course, the litterbox stops when he does this because that's mildly dangerous. And it sends an alert to my phone.
