Do you have like a blog or something? Good bit of writing, this.

Randomly reminds me of some of the freakier social scifi to come out of Asimov’s typewriter. I remember one Robot story where the audience insert protagonist goes to an outer world colony where the incest taboo is not only missing, but it’s considered a faux pas to avoid sex with your family. One of the characters is in deep consternation because he doesn’t want to have sex with his daughter. Anyway, the protagonist and audience are naturally disgusted, but clearly it stuck in my head.

Academically… I don’t know. Because of my upbringing, I just can’t see it is as anything other than a severe moral crime. But I guess I could imagine a very very different world from our own where it wouldn’t be the weirdest fucking thing imaginable to even talk about it.

But that’s me bending over backwards to get inside the head of someone I think I like, like our buddy Stallman here.

:'s

I’d like an Earth Day of the week. Day of the week for a bunch of progressive agendas would be cool. You’ve got Fight Fash Friday, obviously Saturday is Gay, Sunday Earth Day like don’t buy anything and maybe sabotage something? Monday is probably international worker solidarity. Etc.

You can fit a lot of good into 7 days.

The spike in nationalism was intense, and hasn’t really dropped back down to a reasonable baseline since.

Congratulations on your evolution. I was pretty cringe around that era, too.

Mean rich people, their deluded lapdogs, and maybe like a thousand honest-to-goodness psychopaths.

Why are dream bathrooms so ffucked up, like seriously

We should make our own RIF

I used to love that app.

You decided on a new home yet? What’s your selection criteria.

I’d be tempted to make a single user instance, given how there’s an ansible playbook you can just run.

Wow such amazing deescelation, cop really restored my sense of peace and order there. /s

Is there no one else you can call when someone is having a psychotic break or whatever? I’ve seen fuckin strung out homeless people better at defusing situations than cops.

Thank you for this gift.

Nightcrawlers the movie, basically.

This is life the reverse of the usual pipeline

The shirt???!??

Anyway looking forward to watching this on break.

I think I’m pretty well read on capitalism, socialism, communism, and even anarchism, but then a simple comment thread makes me realise I’d need to read 10x more just to follow along.

Nooooooo

When you answer “no” to “Did you get all that?” for the fifth time.

Darn it all, this dang monkey’s paw has been nothing but trouble.
