just finished reading nettle & bone by t. kingfisher. her books are always great to me, and this was a really good fairytale for grown-ups, with family and found family and magic and love and adventure and people doing their best to be brave and good in a world filled with cruelty.

You never needed gasoline. That only gave you confidence to get behind the wheel. Your car moved because you believed in yourself

Our societal systems have elevated to untold power and wealth the most bent and twisted humans among us, people who exploit their fellow humans to such a degree they learn to scorn humanity. Little wonder the tools they build seek to eliminate the problem of humans from the equation of society.

Do nothing because it is righteous or praiseworthy or noble to do so; do nothing because it seems good to do so; do only that which you must do and which you cannot do in any other way.

INLAND EMPIRE - You focus on the hug and for a moment everything feels serene. You hear her heart beating -- or perhaps it's your own.

INLAND EMPIRE - I wonder how long has it been since you last hugged someone?

a digital collage with a pink, purple, green, yellow, and teal gradient overlaid on all the images. the images include a horse carrying a bucket, a cluster of mushrooms, a grub, a birds talon, a cicada, five spiders, two flower buds, a hand with an eye over the back of it, and a microscope slide of atoms. there is white text that reads "get weirder or die miserable." the background is black and there is a slightly grainy texture

There's a Samsung phone ad where people take a photo of themselves at a night party, then add their dog and make the night into day.

Why even take that photo? What is the point of recording your fake life?

Starting a massively unpopular war that's so bad even your most rancid supporters are like "Uh hey what the fuck" right as dear leader is visibly dying and you're sitting on an economic bubble about to collapse sure is a move
