I’m so sorry. The Amity Incident has anomalies in its formatting and hasn’t been published. And I worked bloody hard to make sure it was properly formatted.
I will be working on this ASAP.
I apologise for the inconvenience.
Challenge #00717 - A352: Pre-Luddite
The first cyborg hate crime probably happened around the time the first peg leg was ripped off with malice aforethought.
“Ereb… ka… heb…” Lynn dutifully wrote down the hieroglyphs and checked the translations. Her quest for extra credit had her translating old manuscripts that had been collected from, apparently, the dawn of time.

Read more »We found that, upon exposure to sexist humor, men higher in sexism discriminated against women by allocating larger funding cuts to a women’s organization than they did to other organizations.
We also found that, in the presence of sexist humor, participants believed the other participants would approve of the funding cuts to women’s organizations. We believe this shows that humorous disparagement creates the perception of a shared standard of tolerance of discrimination that may guide behavior when people believe others

Aliens of all kind discover Soap Operas, have fun with the adaptations and scripts and of course the fans. — knitnan
Serialised drama is nothing new. The fact that it invaded the known universe before the humans made themselves known is the only thing from stopping the accusing finger pointing at those dangerous primates. And there is a legend that some baffling ancient alien went around the universe and introduced infant species to the concept. But some people will say anything…

Assume the plane in prompt 00691 - A326 is the missing Malaysia Airlines plane, or another mysteriously vanishing flight. It finally lands on the planet and the pilots try to flag down a passerby to ask for directions home.
25th of May, 2003.
As soon as they were out of range, a party broke out on board.
“We did it!”
“WOO!”
“We got our own goddamn JET!”
Shrieks and whoops and general celebration lasted all of

6 people singing an Icelandic hymn in a German train station with excellent acoustics.
If there was one phrase Rael learned to dread, it was any variation on, “Let me get my axe,” from Ambassador Shayde. On one hand, it meant something historical was going to happen. On the other hand, it meant that she would gather crowds.
And there was always at least one who thought he was part of

Read more »Hate doesn’t breed hate. Hate inspires anger in victims of hatred and that anger is called hatred to delegitimize it and villainize people. If you wanna help people who are victims then first you gotta stop acting like they’re just as bad their oppressors and abusers.
Well, fuck.
Bad personal news below the cut
My Dad had a heart attack. His last.
He’s been beating the medical odds all his life, and this stupid thing gets him just days before Christmas.
I’m all kinds of illogical at the moment. Very understandable. And the one thing that’s sticking with me at this time is the fact that I’d got him another one of those joke-a-day calendars for Christmas.
Da loved jokes. Especially puns.

What if, somewhere in your Amalgam Universe, there was an alien race out there for whom normal perceptions of color and sound were not like humans, but color and sound were interrelated - fashion was chosen for how it sounded rather than how it looked, portraits were heard symphonies, and music and speeches could be

There would be no room for half-finished and never-to-be-finished projects on her expedition. But it still felt like she was tearing her own gizzard out.
She’d worked hard on each and every one of them… and she would never be allowed to complete them. As far as the Flock was concerned, all her contributions amounted to replicated data
