if it's thick enough it might help

[mdom]

can we sleep over the crystals like a nail bed??

[Stabbsworth]

doots softly in the background.

[Espy]

I, uh, yes? Not sure why you’d want to, though.

[Merskelly Metalien]

<n< Can we write an apology letter to robot-kind while we're at it? Not sure what it'll accomplish but...humans can be real a-holes.

[Espy]

Hah. Yes.

[Stabbsworth]

i am going to become a robot one day.

...Dear..Robots.. <:/ Hmm..noo..
Dear Automaton personnel... >:d
...Dear...Mechanicalkind… -u-
There we go, :d

Dear Mechanicalkind,
This is an apology presented forth formally, regretfully acknowledging and condemning the unjust, unwarranted, unprovoked, and uncivil actions of mankind upon you. Most of this behavior is due to fear, ignorance, immaturity and sometimes a combination of fear, ignorance and immaturity. Mankind after all, is part of the animal kingdom, not of the higher order of mechanized beings. Mankind, like other intelligent species of animal, feels a primal urge to defend themselves, dominate, destroy, and prevent harm from befalling them, by determining the most dangerous thing they can, and attempting to terminate it. It's understandable but inexcusably primitive. I would like to personally apologize for actions that are not mine, but I have witnessed time and time again. I know I certainly wouldn't like being disassembled against my will. Or shot at, or kicked over, or melted down.
Would any of you? Likely not. How would you function optimally and completely? How would you discover and collect data?
Truly, I am sorry for all the ill treatment you continue to receive, and hope you will understand and find a means to gain the rights humans struggle to implement upon their own kind.

Apologetically yours,
Merskelly Metalien

P.S. {And also, thank you for your unconditional love and support to those who need replacement parts!}

[Stabbsworth]

i just wish to become
a data-collector.
all human knowledge
stored inside me until the end of the universe.

[littl3chocobo]

yeah but then you have to know exactly how many species humans have stuck their junk into. there are some things _noone_ needs to know

[Espy]

A knowledge repository. That’s actually similar to my desire to gather as much knowledge and information as possible.

[littl3chocobo]

does espy wish to know how many minutes, on average, it would take to chew through their own arm?

[Biomecha]

I say we test it out to know for sure. We need a large sample group to make the study worthwhile.

[littl3chocobo]

yeah but how many starving twenty-something can be gathered on short notice?

[Espy]

have you ever met any graduate student ever, or any undergrad who’s been stuck in undergrad for entirely too long?

[littl3chocobo]

unfortunately not in the quantities you'd need, no
