Vent for stupid ideas

Astralpirates provide shelter for stupid, silly and/or wacky thoughts to get a temporary or forever home. We are a safe haven for ideas that often have no place in their place of origin due to neglect, abuse or crises.

Despite the risk of appearing exclusionary: Bad, evil and destructive thoughts and ideas are explicitly not wanted here and will be immediately kicked out!

Important aspects of our services

Core values we provide

Purpose

Protection and care for ideas whose creators cannot or do not want take to care of them.

Duration

Can range from a few days (emergency care) to several years (long-term care) or, in some cases, indefinitely.

Relationship

Caregivers are not adoptive brains; the connection to the biological brain often remains. We do our best to support this relationship when it is in the best interests of both parties.

Accommodation

Thoughts and ideas live in specially equipped quarters, find community with other individuals, and even have the opportunity to reproduce and raise offspring.

our believes

Perspective

We are certain, that at least some creations here will outgrow the arc, become independent and make their way across the universe.

We wish you unique experiences in the world of floating concrete tables that burn, bewildering culinary adventures in the form of lollipops, and E.L.S.A., probably the world's dumbest AI.
