Can we all take a moment to admire the fact that 2801 technology still supports emoji functionality? 🤩 👍 🕷 💁 🩰 💫 🍆 🧊 💅 👁‍🗨 🎯 🤡 🔋 🐈 💲 🧙‍♀️ 🐦💋 🐜 👽 🕶 ⚡ 🕵🏻‍♀️ 💦 💦 💦

It seems like they're pretty set on calling us 'Hatchlings', so... hello, fellow Hatchlings, I'd like to play a game.

Two truths and a lie. I'll start.

  ① Starbucks makes the best lattes.
  ② I've never watched All Dogs Go To Heaven all the way through.
  ③ My birthdate is May 21st. What year? Every year. 😉😉😉 But my party in 2018 was 🔥🔥🔥.

Pretty sure all 3 of those are the lie but ok.
Did an actual accredited academy issue your Science-y degree?

[wittingly]

yeah man
I teach it at Berkeley now

Well
I did

[cicatrize]

Were you fired once administration realized your classes were centered on proper frothing technique?

[wittingly]

no, we had an apocalypse, but close guess

[cicatrize]

Oh, that old world's end excuse.
What was it? Plague, famine, asteroid?

[wittingly]

Aliens

My degrees didn't really meet their requirements

[cicatrize]

Aliens. Huh.
Not the twist I was expecting.
And yet you survived to extraterrestrial culling, so your science-y education must've provided some use, beverage connoisseurship aside.

[wittingly]

it came in handy eventually, but it definitely wasn't my quick thinking and badass impulses that saved me from the initial culling

that credit goes to my stoned TA

MA BOI

Somehow I missed the scripture with "and the baked shall inherit the Earth".

never 4get

[wittingly]

meek was a mistranslation, don't worry, we were just as confused as you are

[cicatrize]

I imagine you had bigger, more extraterrestrial things to be confused about at the time. How was humanity faring when you left? Improving, or still hurtling towards the extinction?

[wittingly]

Definitely the latter.
