I'd Rather Go On An Adventure With An Autonomous Bike Than An Autonomous Car. Wonder Where They Would

I'd rather go on an adventure with an autonomous bike than an autonomous car. Wonder where they would take me. The bicycle underworld?

Title: Bicycle disruption.
2020s: Autonomous electric bicycles are released onto the streets. they scan the pavements, offering their services to potential customers.
2030s: The bicycle population fets out of control. Feral packs haunt the backstreets, hijacking pedestrians and tasking them on long, unwanted rides.
2040s: The bicycles fuse into a colossal vortex of frame, tyre, cog and chain that traverses the globe, sweeping whole cities away on decade-long journeys.

Bicycle Disruption. (a cartoon for New Scientist from a while back)

Why the fuck are all the songs in the world about these two idiots?!

My two cents (or a farthing) in putting together a breakup divorce temporary separation playlist for the ineffable husbands. I think Crowley and Aziraphale will both vehemently deny getting teary-eyed at some of the lyrics, or in Crowley's case bawling along drunk 'Sshtay with me-e-ee'.

I have faith that these angelic entities, who have been through so much together, will find each other stumbling through some major fuck ups and will end up together again. Holding hands at least. The playlist starts out with some serious heartache and pain and morphs more into hope and faith at the end. With a nightingale.

Music by: David Arnold, Brian Eno, John Cale, Archive, Michelle Gurevich, Shakespears Sister, Beck, Michael Kiwanuka, Chris Isaak, Karine Polwart, John Grant, Missy Higgings, The Irrepressibles, Daniel Lanois, Peggy Lee, Joseph Arthur, Angus & Julia Stone, Ane Brun, Ben Harper, Racoon, Ada, Hilda Gudnadottir, Cosmo Sheldrake

I've seen a lot of fics disappear from my bookmarks, some 10+ years old, because they were added to an unrevealed collection. It makes me wonder if people realize what your fic being added to a collection actually means and if the authors approved it automatically without realizing what would happen.

If someone adds your fic to their collection, they can hide it! They can mark the collection as unrevealed and your fic will be unreadable to anyone other than them! If you're writing works for a surprise event, like a Secret Santa, this is really nice.

But if you're just writing and someone adds your fic to a collection for their own personal use and marks it as unrevealed, that. . . really sucks.

I've Seen A Lot Of Fics Disappear From My Bookmarks, Some 10+ Years Old, Because They Were Added To An

I bookmarked this fic in 2017, almost 5 years ago. Knowing me, the fic itself was probably at least a couple years old at the time I bookmarked it.

This is a 5+ year old fic that is completely inaccessible now because it was added to a collection that, as far as I can tell, is literally just for the collection owner's own reference. There's almost 30 fics in the collection, all of them unrevealed.

Please don't blindly accept collection requests and if your works ARE in a collection, make sure that they aren't being hidden without your knowledge or consent.
