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!

Thank you!!!!! And thank you @marthawells.com and thank you artists and designers. In my head this is a sci fi world where multiculturalism is thriving!! (image is from an Australian aboriginal sci fi called Cleverman so I am personally very thrilled by the similarities) (I’m so happy!!!! Ah!!!)

Another repost because of how much this matters. I adore how it’s reminiscent of Cleverman - an Australian Aboriginal Dreamtime science fiction. This is my Murderbot. We CAN talk about it!

If you also adore Mensah and Murderbot‘s love for each other (any shape or form) - you may like The Mensahbot Diaries discord where we talk about the two of them (+farai/tano), exchange ideas, write fic, draw fanart, create cosplays, everything from fluff to dark… everything discord.gg/rVHpNvdDNS

My cover for the #murderbot big bang! I paired with my friends Vel and Allie who wrote a delightful space mission fic with Murderbot, Three and ART. This is picture 1 of 2 but the 2nd wont be revealed until the last chapter. archiveofourown.org/works/92934071 Ligne Claire inspired.

Also making a mug featuring my favourite horrible cringe sociopath gremlin, Leebeebee from #murderbotTV by Anna Konkle. I believe in women's wrongs <3 she entered and left that show like a wreckingball, then continued to haunt the narrative. Just beautiful.

Who do I have to beg to have Home: Habitat, Range, Niche, Territory by @marthawells.com as an audiobook narrated by Noma Dumezweni? Because if you have seen her elephant documentary, and seen her in MurderbotTV, you too would want this short story read by her and only her 💖💖💖 (My fave short story)

The actor for Rami in @marthawells.com #MurderbotTV has been revealed! She's a cutie! I can't wait to see Tapan and Maro! I wanna see their fashion, their hairdos, how they look standing next to the hulk that is Murderbot! So excited for season 2 crumbs!! www.imdb.com/name/nm17748... 🥰

A fun fluff piece of “Dr” Sofi from #TheMurderbotDiaries putting sparkle stickers on #Murderbot ‘a logos. For the Platform Decay fic: archiveofourown.org/works/90158166 This was meant to be a sketch but then I accidentally spent a whole day on it. And in my euphoria I forgot MB has fingers..

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 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)

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

The last time it spoke to Mensah in ASR and it reuniting in ES. My heart. It tells her she’s its favourite. It says its name to her… My heart!

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

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!

“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 💖

I’m kind of picturing Doechii for Leonide! But I would also like Viola Davis because she blew me away in the Hunger Games prequel, like look at her perfect hair and aesthetic! And she made such an amazing and clever dignified antagonist.

I really enjoy the illustrations Jaime Jones does for #murderbot - the linework is spectacular! So this is an ode to the style of the special illustrated edition of System Collapse. I really hope Platform Decay gets a similar JJ treatment. One Murderbot harpooned into a wall at DeltFall.

Just wondering about those transport boxes... #murderbot #murderbotTV #appleTV I based them off a box I saw in episode 1 when SecUnit is inspecting the habitat, and the habitat doors.

I really like how much Murderbot and Mensah care for each other. They are so different and so similar and they care for each other so much. I said, “I just really like you. Not in a weird way.” “I like you, too,” Mensah said. #murderbot #murderbotv #fanart

“Do it scared” - they are both so cool. Mensah from #murderbot and Ripley from #alien Two of the best sci fi leads I’ve ever seen

The most realistic outfit for sleeping in! The show didn't pretty her up for the viewer, they let her go to sleep as one does and the reality of it makes her all the more beautiful for being so very human.

In Cinematography interview Tobias described Mensah as the emotional anchor for the show and I agree. I loved her so much, it was so good to see a mature aged woman take co-lead role in a scifi. Noma was amazing in every scene and especially with Murderbot. Again, please #murderbot @marthawells.com

Episode 7 of #murderbot and I have another thanks for @mianomania.bsky.social @marthawells.com for including cultural circles (yarning circles in Aboriginal Australia). I was at one this morning, so to come home to watch sci-fi and see a form of it in a speculative scifi is mindboggling 🖤💛❤️

I made this account so I can thank @marthawells.com and the Murderbot show for so beautifully demonstrating scientists who are still connected to culture and community in non-western science. Felt so seen in an adjacent indigenous+scientist kind of way!
