mark monday Just have to add that I resent the racist, anti-robot captcha box I have to check that literally says "I'm not a robot". Like wtf Goodreads why the anti-robot bias??

Yes! I always try to have fun with my reviews, but I especially enjoy writing reviews featuring robots. They are my kin.

Thanks David!

Kirk Robot 9: the first robot incel. Yay? I think nay.
