Despite the news, despite events and things in our past, there is still idealism. You will see it in some of our fiction: little glimpses into the way we wish things were, the way we wish we could be, glimmers of idealism and hope that withstand all the negativity in the universe. If you see us as we are today, then we still wish to be better people. If we are gone or changed, then know that there was a time when we wished to be better people and we shared that dream with each other in the hope that we could some day make it come true.

Approach us with caution. New things may frighten us and in becoming frightened, we may attack if we feel that is the safest immediate reaction. I send this warning because in the end, We would like to be friends. We will need your help to achieve this. Also, don't kidnap us and poke us. We hate that.

Greetings. Let us explain who we are. First, we are a species of determined individuals with loose connections. Second, as individuals, we often, though randomly, come together to achieve greatness. Although we're merely individuals with loose connections, every language we speak includes the concepts of "we," "us," and "our." And those concepts do not inherently exclude you. On the contrary, we hope to include you as our friends in the goal of mutual understanding.

I am afraid of you.



More importantly, I am more afraid what we might inadvertently do to you.
