With the understanding that this is a network of some type, I'm looking to get into contact with a Mr. Qubit. He assisted myself and my colleague on arrival, and circumstances at the time weren't conducive to exchanging contact information.

In addition, if there's any available information on technical or research institutions located around the occupied cities, any direction would be appreciated.

Finally, if any other members of the PPDC exist here, I'd request them to get in contact immediately.

Thank you.

FAIL. Cultural osmosis alone should have gotten you halfway there. But ok. Gozilla is the King of the Monsters! It's also a movie about a GIANT LIZARD monster that (usually, but not always!!) attacks Japan (sometimes he's sort of a hero...sometimes). He's sort of a metaphor for nuclear weapons, specifically the bombs dropped on Japan. If you're up to date on the current world politics here, nuclear weapons are kind of the thing the Cold War is all about--whoever has the most nukes...not that it'll do you any good. Once all those nukes start going, you're not going to have much of a planet--

Anyway! On Topic: Godzilla first appeared in a 1954 film (aptly named Godzilla) by Ishirō Honda. You should see it. Try Netflix. If this world still has Blockbusters somehow, try there too. Otherwise you might have to buy it. IT IS WORTH BUYING!!! Cannot stress this enough.

Engineered by the Precursors. The Kaiju were basically made-to-spec to help the Precursors take over the different dimensions they encountered.

Wow. That sucks.

I mean, sorry, man. But yeah, that really sucks.

I might be a little bit of a fan. What happens to Godzilla? He's sort of destroyed by an "Oxygen Destroyer" machine at the end of the first movie, but more radiation brings him back. There's a couple of different eras or arcs or whatever you want to call them for the movies, so he comes back a few times--I won't get into too much detail, actually. Anyway. The backstory varies, but basically he's kind of an amphibious dinosaur (you do know what dinosaurs are, right?) and was woken up by nuclear radiation from nuclear tests done in the Pacific Ocean. Basically we fucked up.

No, we kicked them back through their Breach and closed it. We won. [For now.]

it's okay. better than some alternatives. i don't mind it.

i know what dinosaurs are. that kind of seems like the trend for pretty much everything that ends in catastrophe in the world - we fucked up. its the same dino monster? they didn't do son of godzilla?

good on you. how'd you do it?
