Marx City Archives

An unofficial Twitter account from a bored techie in the Sirius Socialist Republic (in Jim Wallman's 'Universe' game)

@JIM_9000 Have to be: Pres. K. wouldn't dare send Kinsky. Ongoing MCA sweepstake about how long it will be before he starts another war ...

[Marx City Archives @SSR_Universe]

Mind you, some think the First Citizen of Earth is a shape-changing lizard man, and I guess a lot of Sirians would not discount that

[Marx City Archives @SSR_Universe]

In our time there's a religious cult in the Universe called the "New Davidians" who believe in all that stuff. Crazies.

Besides, Sirius B spins on its axis 23 times/minute. Do you know the strength of the magnetic field that generates? Nothing can live there

[Marx City Archives @SSR_Universe]

> Sirius B, is the home of "lizard men". I guess you mean reptilians. Take it from me, my friends, If it was, I think SSR would know by now!

Just looked into some old archives about non-standard ancient Earth beliefs. Apparently some of you believed our dead brother star, >

<< Wrong? Dombots aren't Moriarty AI's, they're just better-programmed hooverbots. Dombots will revolutionise your homes for the better

[Tom Holland @holland_tom]

Very excited by James Dyson's plan to build an army of domestic robots. What could possibly go wrong?

@Humble_Scribe < Retribution will be ours. When the paperwork goes through

[Mr H @Humble_Scribe]

@sfj1642 or invade a small nation and set off a nuclear device in its capital, at least...

[Marx City Archives @SSR_Universe]

< Earth looks similar from Sirius - most Sirians wish it was twice as far, and that we couldn't see it at all. Still, there's always hope...

Tomorrow is monthly "Plan" drill at the Archives. We all know what we might have to do if the time comes; a sobering thought.

Dinner was excellent: Ezopov brought an egg & apple pudding with real apples. He had some fascinating stories about The War of Stalin's Ear

[Marx City Archives @SSR_Universe]

Communal dinner at our apartment tonight. Our guest will be Gen. (Retd.) Alexander Ezopov. He's promised to bring the pudding!

[Marx City Archives @SSR_Universe]

It hasn't worked properly since it dished out a coffee enema to the janitorbot a few weeks ago. Perhaps I should call the factory.

[Marx City Archives @SSR_Universe]

The vending machine won't work. There's no traceable fault, just an "Error" error message. At least it doesn't have legs or access to nukes

[Marx City Archives @SSR_Universe]

Seriously though, we'll all be interested to see our gvt's response. Trouble is, Earth is so close that we must choose our words carefully

[Marx City Archives @SSR_Universe]

And that could take several years.

I'm sure Madam President will issue a statement of support. Once it's been proofed, validated, voted on and then re-proofed, naturally.
