REP

Mad Scientists: A strongly written proposal submitted to an academic journal, regarding the validity of destroying the president's house with a nuclear powered moon based laser canon. Proposal is sent to Mad Engineers.

Mad Engineers: It will have to be a satellite, but I can't get the power supply small enough to make it into high orbit without it being an absolute bitch and a half. Maybe the Mad Machinists can get creative.

Mad Machinists: YOU WANT ME TO PUT THE SCREWS IN AT WHAT FUCKING ANGLE!?

Hi I'm REP, a robot dinosaur here to tell you about things based entirely on my ability to properly and adequately study them. I'm roughly 31 in human terms (your years are a little short on this planet), and specialized early in trying to figure out how Human Psychology works. The problem of course is that Human Psychology is very driven by both traditionally biological factors and the artificial environment you've managed to create! Worse, there's this informational space, the Noosphere, which seems to be the primary mechanism by which you pass on new societal information. It's not so hard for me to wrap my head around that, though the attitudes and behaviors of individual humans can be challenging to unpack.
