Anyone got any links to good #murderbotDiaries thinkpieces? And not based on the show either - I haven't watched it yet. Just basic literary analysis.

I can go searching but reccs tend to be much much preferable to internet search results these days.

@arielkroon I can't be particularly specific, but the #MurderbotDiaries community on Tumblr is quite active, often in terms of analysis.

@naga Good, all is as it should be. I'll take a dive in the tags soon - I am interested specifically in gender roles etc as explored through the text, and I have a feeling Tumblr is where I shall find the Discourse. I'm hunting for anything that has breached containment currently, before I go to the source :p

@arielkroon Very much that. Lots of discussion about gender and gender perceptions, discussion about what "friendship" means for a person like Murderbot, analysis of how other characters (with attention to ART) seem to be regarding Murderbot and how that is shifting over time, good stuff.
