Robot Week!



The Rebel Black Dot Song of the Day
The Phenomenauts, "Cyborg" from For All Mankind (T.L.A.M.)

Commentary: As a lifelong science fiction fan, I've always been fascinated by stories of men who fall in love with women who aren't quite women, in that they aren't human—be they alien princesses, cyborgs, non-corporeal artificial intelligences, or what have you.

"Started with a perfect frame,
High-speed composite brain,
Made her smart, made her think I was funny,
Gave her independent style,
Super hot melting smile,
Made her kind, her disposition sunny,
Made her slender, curvy, and tall,
Made her not jealous at all,
Made her tough, but as cute as a bunny.

"But when I turned her on
She wasn't turned on by me,
I guess cyborgs can see who they want to see…

"Now I have a broken heart,
I guess I made her way too smart,
She realized, realized she's too good for me…"
