Love it! Absolute madcap adventure through Lovecraftian alien cephalopods, heartless Tin Men, and sexy Frankenstein girls... this is my kind of article, man! haha

Speaking of, two quick things:

1) This album would make a great supplemental playlist ;)

2) That one quote is "akshully!" not from Archytas, but rather from our old pal Aristotle:

Thank you so much - it is a fun read. and to have a reader correct my my Ancient Greek quote is awesome! Seems like we’re on the same plane. And I secretly suspect the good doctor knows more than she lets on.

I agree! And good on you for asking the doctor, even if she did have to play coy so she wouldn't be punished by Cthulhu for spilling the beans. (https://clip.cafe/2006/whyd-ya-spill-yer-beans/)

What a time to be alive in indeed.

Your playlist lead me here and I’m not disappointed that it did.

I think you and I are very simpatico on the subject of octopus specific…robots and AI in general.

When I am taken by an article or book I read it more than once.

So yeah ..I’ll be reading your worded thought here more than once, Mr. Leczel.

I forgot to make mention of just how much I am wrapped up in your playlist.

I really like the way it shakes itself out.

It contains key personal favorites of mine and has new music I’m not familiar with but like.

Thank you very much for sharing it.
