Hello, moi c'est Benoît ! Je vais faire une présentation rapide sinon je vais prendre 3 mois à l'écrire hihi~
Ici vous me retrouverez principalement faire de l'humour nul et parler de musique ou d'autres œuvres culturelles. Pour l'humour nul, j'aime bien les trucs courts et cons qui me passent rapidement par la tête (ça tourne souvent autours du caca !
). Pour les œuvres culturelles, j'adore toucher un peu à tout et je n'aime pas vraiment réfléchir à "pourquoi j'aime (ou pas) telle ou telle œuvre", je préfère me laisser porter par l'œuvre sans aucune attente préalable 😌 . Je ferais donc un très mauvais critique ! Ces derniers mois, je suis pas mal rentré dans des œuvres expérimentales (en particulier pour la musique). Pour plus de détails sur mes goûts :
Senscritique, où je note toutes les œuvres que j'ai vues : https://www.senscritique.com/ImVeganBtw
LastFm pour mon historique complet de musique depuis février 2025 : https://www.last.fm/user/Benoisette
Les luttes sociales ont également beaucoup d'importance pour moi, mais je préfères booster des personnes s'exprimant mieux que moi sur ces sujets plutôt que de créer mes propres pouets (j'adore ce mot, j'ai enfin une occasion pour l'utiliser youhouu 🥳 )
J'aime aussi le dessin mais j'en fait beaucoup trop peu pour avoir envie d'en poster ici (pour le moment).
Je suis végane, cycliste et sous linux, donc j'ai bien choisi mon réseau social c'est bien ça ???

Too derpy to understand gravity.
I'm reading Kurt Vonnegut's "Galapagos".
This is a novel from **1985**... and, while it's not "great", I'd still recommend it for anyone living this current time, plus, it's kinda funny.
It manages to:
- describe AI techno-bros as what they are: self-centred assholes.
- (shallowly) describe incels before those were a concept in our collective imagination.
- (very subtly) establish a clear connection between all those self-proclaimed "apolitical" people and... nazis.
We were on a deep survey run out towards the far edge of the Orion Arm that Earth is in, so yeah, we were a long way from home. We're just come out of jump, and were recalibrating our sensors, when the collision warning alarm went off.
We had sealed our suits, and were reaching for the controls when the impact happened. Whatever hit the ship got us in the crew quarters. Fortunately we were all on the bridge at the time.
Marcelo went aft to investigate, and a few minutes later we heard him scream, so we went after him like idiots. We found him backed up against the wall, a hexapod advancing towards him - all sharp claws and spines. When we entered, it turned towards us, so we backed out of the common area. It ignored Marcelo, and followed us.
Now I know what you are thinking, why didn't we shoot it. Simple. We were a survey ship. Yes, we had some small arms, but they were kept in a locker near the gravraft. Heck, the ship itself only had a single turret with a couple of popguns.
So, we backed out, and it followed us - but it is not a big ship, and it was not long before it cornered us.
It pulled a rectangular object out and some sort of cylinder with odd grips. Then, before I could do anything, it was right in front of me, and pushed the rectangle against my suit, and did something with the cylinder. Then it turned around and went back into the the object that collided with us.
The thing that had crashed into us reversed course , leaving a three meter wide hole in the hull.
Marcelo made it back to the bridge with a rocket pistol, but it was all over by then.
We sealed the bridge and repressurised, then opened our suits. The outside cameras showed the other craft just sitting nearby. We looked at the rectangle, and it appeared to be some sort of tablet with markings on it. Some of the markings matched the ones on the craft that hit us.
We puzzled over this for an hour or so, then another larger craft turned up, and opened up comms. That was when the one that hit us left.
It took us a while, but we figured out that they were offering to tow us to a repair yard in the next system. Not having any other clue, we sent an image of the tablet, almost instantly, they had tow lines attached.
Marcelo had been sitting thinking for a while but spoke up once we were underway. "Ceinwen, Dargh? I think that thing was giving us its insurance details."
