Opportunity was supposed to run for 90 days, but it ran for 15 years. Is this… is this the origin of Robot Hanukkah?

@wetwareproblem

If it wasn’t before, you can bet your ass it is now. Thank you so much for tagging me in this.

Happy Robonukkah everybody!

Okay, so is this another weeklong thing? What will the traditional foods and observances be?

Iron-rich foods to represent the metal in Oppy’s body. Challah, a symbol of the working class (at least it was in my dad’s Jewish community growing up, IDK about the rest of the world) is had with each meal.

You light a pillar candle to represent the fire used in constructing Opportunity and thank God for the fire of creation, for creating the sun which gives light and warmth to the universe and thus allows life to flourish, and the light and all that represents. It’s a pillar candle because those are absurdly long lasting, as was Oppy.

At the annual Robonukkah family dinner you and your family talk about times you thought you couldn’t go on but did, in spite of how hard it was, and meditate on what got you through that, how to better support each other, etc.

In remembrance of Oppy’s death just before Valentine’s Day, a day of chocolate, the children are given gelt that was put in the fridge (representing the cold vacuum of space) during Hanukkah Proper ™.

But the truest observance is the intra-community argument about whether it’s Robonukkah or Robanukkah.

Holy shit, I was half-joking but this is so beautiful I’m genuinely tearing up and I will be very upset if we don’t make this a thing.

90, the original number of days Oppy was supposed to live, divided by 15, the number of years Oppy did, is 6.

Robonukkah is therefore six days long, which is a holy number also representing how God rested at the end of six days of work, thus showing the connection between the divine and creation is not as far apart as one might think.

There should be an Erev Robonukkah then so that it can start directly after Sabbath and continue through to the next one. Representing how Oppy worked constantly without rest?

I’m not Jewish but I do love this. And as someone who *dearly* loves Oppy and hopes one day to be able to pet it in person….Gifts of stones (traditionally red, but any pretty stone will do) to young people, plucked from the ground of a far-off land that they have never walked. It is a wish and a blessing, that their roads may be long and prosperous.  Solar cells! So that they may always have a light and a radio when they are far from home! They come in *folding* varieties now! Because it was those solar cells that got Oppy so far. Wind chimes or a pinwheel, to find the wind that clears your path. Many voices raised in joyous song, deliberately off-key.

The Cry For Help

Alright I don’t know what else to do except scream this into a void I’m terrified isn’t listening. My family needs help. I need help. I’m 32 with end stage renal disease and have been on dialysis for over 9 years now. As a result I’m permanently disabled and I make a little over $500 a month. This was difficult but with my parents help and some creative budgeting we were doing okay. Three disabled adults can manage with luck. Until August when county code enforcement came down on us the first time. We had invasive grass overtake our property and I spent a month handcutting it all with a corn knife because it killed two lawn mowers and a weed eater. Alright we avoided fines and we thought we were good. My health took a hit because I was overdoing it but I thought we could bounce back. In February code enforcement showed up again and the list was huge including saying a shed which had been on the property longer then I have been alive suddenly needed a permit. The problem is one way or another we are going to the magistrate at this point because I cannot do all this work on our income with only the help of my 72 year old mother. Dad doesn’t understand but these days he doesn’t understand a lot. I could handle this the everyday physical toll was bad and my mental state was mostly exhausted panic but I could deal. Yesterday we found out that the mortgage company is trying to foreclose because of an issue with the insurance repay they were supposed to be taking out. We’d received nothing in the mail until they were served yesterday. We need help. I never thought it would come to this but we need help. I know I have next to nothing to offer but I do have gratitude and if somehow you can spare a little so we have money to fix this thank you. And if money isn’t possible because Gods above and below know there isn’t always any to go around a signal boost would be great.

does the existence of redwall abbey imply that there is a mouse pope? more at 11

i want to address the point that the redwall creatures seemed like protestants with the fact that this further implies a Mouse Reformation, featuring a mouse dissident and indeed.. a mouse pope

While it is indeed possible that the theology of Redwall had deviated from the dicta of the Mouse Pope (Pope Mus IV), Protestants don’t, as far as I or the internet knows, have much of a monastic tradition, thus proving that they are Catholic and fall under the jurisdiction of the Holy (Mouse) See. In this essay, I will show that Martin the Warrior should have been excommunicated for his heresies

flagrantly disregarding the possibility that the Redwall animals could be Orthodox

Guys they are Anglican, this means not only is there a mouse pope there was a mouse king who really wanted a divorce

At mouse scale, that would be Henry the 1/8th.

this is the only valid speculation thread my post has created

Henry the VIII was 6′2″ and weighed about 200 pounds even in his sprightly, athletic, pre-knee injury incarnation, which would put a to-scale Henry the 1/8th at a frankly terrifying 25 pounds. 

Can you imagine being an Elderly Frail Mouse Pope with an enraged 25 pound mouse bearing down on you to question your supreme religious authority? If I had been the mouse pope, there never would have been a reformation, because I would have immediately given Terrifying Colossus Mouse King Henry the 1/8th any annulment he fucking wanted

@hamelin-born

Oh this is good.

When the Westerosi hear about the Duke Infernal title they start digging. What Targaryen had this title? What line to they come from?

Obviously they don’t find anything.

In the meanwhile Dante pulls out one of his devil arms that has a fire element.

Everyone goes BSOD.

Vergil is exasperated. Why can’t his younger brother hold back for once? No subtle bone in his body. (Neither has Vergil even if he thinks so)

Nero tries to come to terms with random ladies flirting with him because he is a prince now. His expressions must be hilarious.

@ertrunkenerwassergeist @celero-loves-dragons @sparklecryptid

Look, considering how powerful Sparda was - I think he was originally one of Mundus’s right-hand devils prior to his whole rebellion for the sake of humanity - and how there are implications that he gave the impression of being noble/well-bred, I think that he was at *least* the equivalent of a Duke of Hell.

Meanwhile, Virgil and Dante aren’t *trying* to conquer Westros but they have absolutely no qualms in fucking up anyone who tries to start something. Nero is frantically trying to do damage control. 

Also Nero: I have a girlfriend!

Opportunity was supposed to run for 90 days, but it ran for 15 years. Is this… is this the origin of Robot Hanukkah?

@wetwareproblem

If it wasn’t before, you can bet your ass it is now. Thank you so much for tagging me in this.

Happy Robonukkah everybody!

Okay, so is this another weeklong thing? What will the traditional foods and observances be?

Iron-rich foods to represent the metal in Oppy’s body. Challah, a symbol of the working class (at least it was in my dad’s Jewish community growing up, IDK about the rest of the world) is had with each meal.

You light a pillar candle to represent the fire used in constructing Opportunity and thank God for the fire of creation, for creating the sun which gives light and warmth to the universe and thus allows life to flourish, and the light and all that represents. It’s a pillar candle because those are absurdly long lasting, as was Oppy.

At the annual Robonukkah family dinner you and your family talk about times you thought you couldn’t go on but did, in spite of how hard it was, and meditate on what got you through that, how to better support each other, etc.

In remembrance of Oppy’s death just before Valentine’s Day, a day of chocolate, the children are given gelt that was put in the fridge (representing the cold vacuum of space) during Hanukkah Proper ™.

But the truest observance is the intra-community argument about whether it’s Robonukkah or Robanukkah.

Holy shit, I was half-joking but this is so beautiful I’m genuinely tearing up and I will be very upset if we don’t make this a thing.

90, the original number of days Oppy was supposed to live, divided by 15, the number of years Oppy did, is 6.

Robonukkah is therefore six days long, which is a holy number also representing how God rested at the end of six days of work, thus showing the connection between the divine and creation is not as far apart as one might think.

There should be an Erev Robonukkah then so that it can start directly after Sabbath and continue through to the next one. Representing how Oppy worked constantly without rest?

I’m not Jewish but I do love this. And as someone who *dearly* loves Oppy and hopes one day to be able to pet it in person….Gifts of stones (traditionally red, but any pretty stone will do) to young people, plucked from the ground of a far-off land that they have never walked. It is a wish and a blessing, that their roads may be long and prosperous.  Solar cells! So that they may always have a light and a radio when they are far from home! They come in *folding* varieties now! Because it was those solar cells that got Oppy so far. Wind chimes or a pinwheel, to find the wind that clears your path. Many voices raised in joyous song, deliberately off-key.

…it occurs to me that if Nero, Vergil and/or Dante ever ended up in Westros/Planetos, they would probably be mistaken for Targaryens. 

(Vergil and Dante would probably roll with it. Nero would flail.)

@celero-loves-dragons @sparklecryptid

Don’t give Vergil the idea of conquering a nation. Because if they think him Targaryen Westeros may actually let him do it.

On the other hand, Dante would totally love the dragons. 

(Meanwhile, Nero is running around trying to ride herd on his uncle and his father. Why is this his life. WHY.)

@ertrunkenerwassergeist

Well, according to a theory I once read - 

Dante: Y’know, technically we ARE royalty. 

Nero: WHAT. 

Vergil: An argument can be made that, as father defeated Mundus once, and devils operate along the principle that ‘you keep what you kill’, he was technically King of Hell.

Dante: Plus, dear old dad was a titled Duke Infernal. 

Nero, in the background: BSOD.

@hamelin-born

Oh this is good.

When the Westerosi hear about the Duke Infernal title they start digging. What Targaryen had this title? What line to they come from?

Obviously they don’t find anything.

In the meanwhile Dante pulls out one of his devil arms that has a fire element.

Everyone goes BSOD.

Vergil is exasperated. Why can’t his younger brother hold back for once? No subtle bone in his body. (Neither has Vergil even if he thinks so)

Nero tries to come to terms with random ladies flirting with him because he is a prince now. His expressions must be hilarious.

@ertrunkenerwassergeist @celero-loves-dragons @sparklecryptid

Look, considering how powerful Sparda was - I think he was originally one of Mundus’s right-hand devils prior to his whole rebellion for the sake of humanity - and how there are implications that he gave the impression of being noble/well-bred, I think that he was at *least* the equivalent of a Duke of Hell.

Meanwhile, Virgil and Dante aren’t *trying* to conquer Westros but they have absolutely no qualms in fucking up anyone who tries to start something. Nero is frantically trying to do damage control. 

Also Nero: I have a girlfriend!
