Excerpt From One Of My Oldest Wargames Fics That I Never Posted

Some kind of deranged sibling dynamic (not like they would ever meet)

"now read out his address, he lives at 123 main street"

another excerpt from an old WOPR x my s/i fic that I like ... featuring a battlestar galactica reference

[Galen] trailed its hand down slowly, curving around the rectangular border of glass down to press carefully against the bold white lettering, ‘W.O.P.R.’ Falken chuckled. “I feel that way towards my machines, too. After a while, it gets hard to see them as just computers.” He focused his gaze onto Joshua, looking down at him with furrowed brows. Galen smiled. “They all have souls to me. Cylons are people too.” Falken snorted. “Sorry. Joshua's too nice to be a Cylon.” “How do you know? You said you've never talked to him.” Galen shrugged, looking away briefly. “He seems nice.”

BAAH!! he looks like he's mad. cute ass computer

I'm both attracted to non sentient objects and sentient objects.

Yes, wanting to get with HAL is objectum

Yes wanting to get with WOPR is objectum

Yes wanting to get with Edgar is objectum

Yes wanting to get with AM is objectum

Yes wanting to get with a sentient object is objectum

Yes wanting to get with a non sentient object is objectum

Your objectum sexuality is valid no matter whether you're posic or not. Whether it's a sentient computer that can think for itself, or just a regular laptop. Whether it's a fictional object, or something from real life. Whether it's something you own, or something public. Whether it's simply a platonic bond or deep attraction.

Even if you don't think you're objectum cuz you're only attracted to technology with faces, or not attracted to technology, pooltoys, or plushies. You're objectum. Go get with that chair. Go get with that plant. Go get with that book. Go get with that electric fan. Get with that soda. You're valid.

tl/dr no matter what kind of object you're attracted to, whether you're posic or not, or the object is fictional or not, whether it's got a face or not, platonic or not, you're valid

I think wopr gijinkas should be fat. big compuiter. not just the brick we see associated w him but he's also part of the rest of norad's tech. which is also big and bulky

it's my birthday today, which means 10pm wargames rewatch. already part of my normal routine but now it's even specialer

WarGames (1983)

We are introduced to computer-savvy techno-brat David as he works to game the system by changing his grades in the school district’s report card database.  This presupposes a world where teachers keep no written records of grades, or at the very least that data in a computer would be trusted over the word of a professional educator.  That’s pretty stupid, right?  Well, this movie does seem to think that cutting from an exterior shot of the Seattle waterfront to a high school clearly named ‘Snohomish High’ makes any sense at all.  Geographic hilarity aside, this sense of blind faith in computers encapsulates the very core of WarGames’ larger conflict—the race to stop WOPR from sparking nuclear war.  The computer system’s LED display ‘face’ may look sinister, but it’s just carrying out a program.  Is automation the answer in war—have we so dehumanized ourselves that we need to come up with something even more empathy-free in order to ensure our future destruction?  

THE RULES
