They never seem to postulate that technology can be a driver of social reform
Or even that the 'primitives' are actually just as intelligent as them, they just lack knowledge of their 'enlightened' experiences
Realizing something that irritates me a *lot*
Basically all sci fi with 'intervention policy' has this very colonial era mindset that the 'primitives' can't handle technology without social reform
I should definitely contribute more in this respect
I'm working on a sci fi book set a hundred years in the future that would be good for this
Oh sweet, I'd love to get on this list, followed everyone on it ๐
Well I've finally finished university. I'm glad I can finally delegate my time to creative projects I care about and take control of my education. It's exciting but also overwhelming. I wish the times we live in were less uncertain so I can properly enjoy this lol
I really wanna get better at poetry but it keeps eluding me. I can write poetically but I can't rhyme without it feeling forced. How do I get better at this? Lol
Does anyone still even use fanfiction.net? I've gotten so many scam bot pms it's made me suspicious that all interest in my work is automated lol
I'm so glad that I'm only a few days a way from (hopefully) being done with classes until grad. Then I can do what I want, write, read books and work on my podcast. I might even work on my csm fanfic just to blow off steam
Something I think is worth saying is that you don't always need to know what your art means. Creating it is enough, other people are just as capable of interpreting it. The emotions that go into it are often more important than a driving message as an abstract creation
Constructive criticism for liberals: never let reactionaries(Republicans) set the boundaries of the conversation. If they give you a yes or no, blow through it. If they call people 'welfare queens', don't try to call them hypocrites, deny the existence of welfare queens. Stop fighting on their turf.
Man I'd love to work on something like this but my portfolio just isn't large enough yet to prove my competence even if I do think I could do it. Guess just gotta keep my nose to the grindstone after school and wait for more opportunities
Hell yeah, we happy
A pride flag patch and a trans flag that says protect trans lives patch
A patch of the leftist black cat, commonly associated with anarchists, though I'm a socialist
More new patches!
A patch on a black denim jacket that says 'you are alive' with white lilies on both sides of the text
New jacket patch I put on last night
Bought some books on Soviet history to help me make a political horror ttrpg set in the early Soviet union. I'm looking forward to getting to work on it!
Something that helps me is realizing that they're only fighting this hard because they're losing. They can't let people think, or speak, or see us because when they do they believe in our humanity. Their denial of reality is a bubble that will have to pop eventually.
I have no self control with books,i went in to buy a ufo culture book for fun reading and ended up grabbing some books i thought might be suppressed by the regime if worst came to worst,and another unrelated thing I wanted to read lol
Atleast having a lot of philosophy and economics will fuel me lol
Gotta look out for eachother. Kicked a few dollars your way, hope it helps. Everyone else who can also should. All we've got is eachother rn
I have no words.These are truly evil people doing this, throwing children and innocent people into the meat grinder for personal gain.Do what you can to protect the people in your life, and reach out to others who need help.And when we're taking an accounting of these bastards, never fucking forget.
Maybe I should start doing this with all my stuff
I hope in the future we look back at the privacy crisis we're in the same way we look at prohibition. The government and other institutions vastly overreached in their control of our lives and behavior and after decades of bullshit we finally got sick of it and then can laugh about how crazy it was
@VeryBadLlama [my French boyfriend, watching American news]: I don't understand??? Things are so bad??? And they set nothing on fire??? How do they expect to fix??? 3:49 PM 1/2/21. Twitter for iPhone

future archaeologists will know you were (not) a boy

Some books I picked up recently that I'm looking forward to going through
#booksky #philosophysky
I wish I had someone or somewhere to talk about philosophy and metaphysics other than just taking notes and refining ideas until I conceivably have enough for a book that noone but philosophy nerds a hundred years from now would even know about
LGBTQIA+ progress flag.
There is no LGB without the TQIA+
