I heard Annihilation was about grief or relationships. I'm interested af in Scavenger's Reign.

I feel like we have a rough indentation / substructure of how we will process things from birth, but that every event thereon will shape it further.

As well, we know ourselves in reference to others: "I'm like A, not like B, but most like C. What lies beyond C? I might see myself reflected best over there."

"Rules do not exist to bind you; they exist so you may know your freedoms."
Parameters outline a given environment within which to experiment and explore. It's one antidote to Blank Page Syndrome, for example.

I have to disagree entirely about personifying the automated house in There Will Come Soft Rains (fantastic name), but otherwise yes. This is exactly my understanding.

It's also a good description of why I feel so confused by others.
People tend to feel more secure (than I do) in their identities as individuals, group members, and (neurotypical / neurodefault / neurorigid) humans.

“We should not have to prove our citizenship, […] We are the original people in this country, but we’re in a #scary time right now, and I don’t want any #American #Indian to get lost in the #system. [ICE] ‘lost’ children the last time they did this. They lost little brown children that will never be reunited with their parents. And that is horrible. […]”

A #system in which it is legal to buy non-conforming #debt from someone, then load it onto a healthy company you have also bought, thus bankrupting it, and then to move on and do the same thing again & again .. has NO FUTURE.

It is dying.
From within.

You should know by now that the #system hates the weak and preys on them.

And the weak is of course what it sees as non-people (illegalized and/or native), almost-people (black & some), worthless people (the "hard working" white middle class).

But it totally doesn't stop there. Being a successful #business doesn't help you not being preyed on, having your assets stripped away from you, being forced to pay rent on what you once owned + having #CDO's loaded onto you.
