I heard Annihilation was about grief or relationships. I'm interested af in Scavenger's Reign.

I feel like we have a rough indentation / substructure of how we will process things from birth, but that every event thereon will shape it further.

As well, we know ourselves in reference to others: "I'm like A, not like B, but most like C. What lies beyond C? I might see myself reflected best over there."

"Rules do not exist to bind you; they exist so you may know your freedoms."
Parameters outline a given environment within which to experiment and explore. It's one antidote to Blank Page Syndrome, for example.

I have to disagree entirely about personifying the automated house in There Will Come Soft Rains (fantastic name), but otherwise yes. This is exactly my understanding.

It's also a good description of why I feel so confused by others.
People tend to feel more secure (than I do) in their identities as individuals, group members, and (neurotypical / neurodefault / neurorigid) humans.

My #neighbour bought a new #fridge for his house. To get rid of his old fridge, he put it in his front yard and put a sign next to it saying, "Free to good home - you want it, you take it".
For 3 days, the fridge sat there without even one #person looking twice at it.
He eventually decided that #people were rather #skeptical about such a good deal, so he changed the sign to read, "Fridge for sale, $50".
The next day, someone stole it.
