Made an account so I could thank the Murderbot creators for including indigenous practices/cultures/themes in their futuristic sci-fi. Thinking of sticking around for the Murderbot fandom. I am participating!
Happy birthday to Noma Dumezweni! Who plays the best sci-fi co-lead ever: the intrepid galactic explorer, Dr Mensah, Madame President! Mensah from #murderbot - the only TV show I know with a mature black woman co-lead 🥰💖✨I can’t wait for season 2! She’s a delight! Thank you Noma & @marthawells.com
(I think it's very important to recognise we have biases and work on them--a work that is never finished--because the moment we think we're immune is the moment we fail)
Murderbot does a GREAT line in sarcastic and darkly humorous, whilst remaining utterly adorable…perhaps Murderbot 2.0? Who wouldn’t want to be narrated by sentient kill-ware? Like I was saying yesterday: Sometimes you’re just in a CodeBundle.FuckThem & CodeBundle.FuckThisToo kind of mood…
Metal worker made a snail wall art for me. It’s so cute. That snail is going upward! Not sure where I want to put it yet.
I liked spotting Platform Decay easter eggs in the #murderbotTV show. Manifesting season 2 teasers. Please, @marthawells.com I would leave my home and responsibilities for more Mensah. 🤩
Human AU of Mensah and Murderbot! She's so worried about it. archiveofourown.org/works/81567801 (I found the water colour brushes and rendering in procreate and went a little nuts)
We'll be starting it soon and release later this year. Not sure of voices, but we always try to use the same ones. Thanks!
A quick #PlatformDecay fanfic: Tano's turn to get kidnapped! #murderbot #themurderbotdiaries #ao3 Now that it's out of my system, I can work on my big bang fic... archiveofourown.org/works/84698386

Finished Platform Decay and it's my 3rd fave or 2nd fave in the whole series. I ADORED seeing SecUnit continue to make new friends of different types, it has such a huge support network now! It has a family of sorts! It's a mentor-figure! It is A THIRD MOM to EVERYONE. Friends! TY @marthawells.com
My favorite Sam Neil fact will always be that he designed a future Australian flag that replaces the union jack with the aboriginal flag for Event Horizon and insisted the film use it.
It took me so many hours but eventually I landed on these 2 scenes in @marthawells.com series. My heart for when it leaves Mensah and then reunites to Mensah. It says its name… Im ready for the new book! It’s not released in Australia until 12May so I preordered ebook and hope I get that on 5th
With the new Murderbot Diary out a week tomorrow (Platform Decay, released 5th May!): What is your favourite scene in @marthawells.com ’s wonderful series? I know it’s a HARD ASK, so many brilliant bits to choose from.. #murderbot #TMBD #PlatformDecay Mine is almost certainly the one below:
I have found the #AO3 skins! It is the most #murderbot themed one I could find and gets me in the perfect reading mood. (Spot the outlier 🤭) Continuously impressed by the quality of writing in this fandom. Most recent read: archiveofourown.org/works/83376386 Time Travel alternate meeting!

With the first #Murderbot & #Mensah fanfic event finishing on #AO3, I managed to upload 33k across 6 stories (and 2 of those stories are WIPs to keep working on!) It has been so much fun, I've had the best time writing and consuming nothing but #mensahbot archiveofourown.org/series/5840001

“I made a gesture in that direction that I had only seen in the shows that were rated high on the obscenity scale. Gurathin saw me and made a choking noise.” - Exit Strategy, #themurderbotdiaries by @marthawells.com The image was in my head and I couldn’t rest until I drew it. Mensah too 💖
