Seeing a resurgence of the "if you're upset about any current thing you must be ignorant of all of its historical antecedents and thus a stupid piece of shit" school of scoldposting, for the dang birds imo

My hot take is I don't think the revisionism of HP helps anyone. Will is correct here. The fact is, the politics of the books are simply completely different from how she participates in politics now. She was radicalized and changed by social media. It happened to her, and it can happen to you too.

So the second half of this wasn't actually a joke. I was legit in the middle of crafting a blowgun-focused D&D character. And in my ongoing quest to shrink my follower count (I just hit *500*? WHY??), I'm going to detail my process. I nearly always start theorycrafting on a mechanical concept.

The non-physical property that ultimately causes consciousness is craving. Also causes forms, thoughts, perceptions, I think? ...okay, I admit, I still have a *lot* of the reading to do. 😓 ☸️

“reposting” is v funny. you can have a whole relationship with someone online that’s effectively just printing out things they said and stapling them to the front of your house while otherwise never speaking to each other

I would also like to see grass frozen and taxed out of existence in the desert Desert frontage looks better, traps dust better, uses radically less water, and can still be very green! I got an olive tree and a few date palms over some cactus and rocks and it looks great and uses almost no water

The old Deadlock strategy games had the humans' "hat" be 1) very good financiers and tax-collectors, 2) hold grudges for a VERY long time, and 3) infantry with kamikaze drugs. (Not sure who the "adaptable" race would be. The Ch'chit or the Uva Mosk?)

I'm reminded of something Slacktivist Fred pointed out about slaveholders, and the contrast between their rhetoric about how contented black people were as slaves vs their gruesomely-violent paranoia about slave revolts. Sometimes, evil people have enough self-awareness to know what they deserve.

Stock market tanking again today and oil *way* up. What's crazy is Trump could've just rode out the current regression to the mean on inflation, combined with an apparent productivity boom. Instead, did the opposite of econ 101: kicked out workers, reduced immigration, started wars of choice.

The term ”sodomy” low key the most successful and destructive psyop of all time. Cishets took a civilization getting smote for its lack of hospitality to the poor and the stranger and deflected the blame to gay sex for like a million years and counting.

I do understand that this is, fundamentally, what the press believes their job is, but I would argue that if the role of a newspaper is simply to serve as a message board for elite debate, it is not an institution or occupation worthy of much intrinsic respect or deference.

This and Mexican Food are the only times in which the Japanese food is less superior than the American version. A Japanese 7-Eleven will blow an American 7-Eleven out of the water. You could eat at a 7-Eleven in Tokyo every day of the week and not feel like you’re dying.
