They erased the new Banksy mural in London. But the stain remains.

Side-by-side images of Banksy’s mural on the Royal Courts of Justice in London. On the left, the artwork appears faded and scrubbed, leaving only a ghostly outline of a judge raising a gavel over a protester holding a placard. On the right, the mural is fully visible in sharp black and white stencil, showing a judge in a traditional white wig and robes striking down at a protester who defends himself with a bloodied sign.

#Septopolis 8 Rama was founded by some of the first humans to harness the magic of fire. While a few communities had existed south of the glacier, they made the permanent settlement of Rama possible--and started the chain of events leading to the birth of the Empire. #WritingCommunity #WriteSky

What this should prompt is a thorough reflection of what the label “criminal” actually means to the government versus what people think it means. Because people think it means “violent felon” but the reality is if you got a traffic violation you are in the system.

Winter (really Winterset, the two-month-long polar night that encompasses much of the empire) is a sacred season in Rama. In other cultures the emphasis is on conserving food and minimizing waste through the long months of frost. But in Rama, thanks to the ancient alchemy 1/3 #SeptemberWorldbuilders

The sunrise wasn’t visible from the wharf. It faced south, the Sulfur Cliffs standing east, but dawn’s lazy velvet light crept over the bluffs and stretched across the water. Port Pell was yawning to life, the brief respite of the small hours spent, and a red ship was docked at its largest pier.
Arin breathed in the briny air. A gull called over the horizon. But her tired eyes closed with the lift of her chin as she inhaled.

Another snip from Riyana's short story (going out on sub today or tomorrow). #WIPSnips #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts #amwriting #fantasy #darkfantasy #weirdfiction

We talked for long hours about the war, and the rumors that emeralds had been found to the west, some larger than a newborn aurochs. I was tired by the time the subject turned to you, and I was subjected to that grasping curiosity that those pregnant must endure. The “How far along are you?” and the impertinent questioning of gender. I stretched myself out on the couch while your father threw open the back door to the brisk twilight air.
He told us a story then, or rather, several stories, of his last assignment. I have certainly forgotten or distorted many of their details over time, though it was not even a decade ago. Many more, to be sure, were lost and changed in the same way in your father's memory. In the north they have a saying about death, and about remembrance: In time we each become the lies of others.

I'll play along. Rama is the dominant city on the surface of Osian, an alternate earth with an extreme axial tilt that gives much of the planet long months of polar day (springrise) and polar night (winterset). It's in the far northwest of the main continent, and *very* cold. #Septopolis #Writesky

"In fact, almost everything worthwhile that has come out of British culture for the last century, from music hall, to street kebabs, to standup comedy, rock 'n' roll, and the rave scene, has been primarily a working-class phenomenon.

Essentially, these were the things the working-class created when they weren’t actually working.

The sprouting of British popular culture in the 60s was a product of the UK’s then very generous welfare state….and a surprising proportion of major bands later to sweep the world spent at least some of their formative years on unemployment relief."

Kel encounters a strange house (built in a human style) found among the wealthier strata of the architects. #WIPSnips #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts #amwriting #fantasy #darkfantasy #weirdfiction

From far off the house looked profoundly out of place. The brick was of a texture and color foreign to the earth of the region of Esker, yet it looked, I thought, like it might have been moved here, piece by piece, from another plane of reality. A ramp painted to look like wood led up to the front door from the footpath adjoining the valley. From here it would be an easy climb to the klon, if a long one. My nose indexed a myriad of compounds I had never before encountered: paints, glues, perfumes, and soaps. The blue-white glow of fluorescent lamps illuminated the open windows from within, and an artificial pond pooled with condensation, nearly overflowing to the rear of the house.

This is a poorly framed question. Lots of conservatives would cut off a family member for being LGBT, for example, but that doesn’t clock as a ‘political view’ to them. Also, the narrative that leftists cut off their conservative family members too easily is extremely widespread on the right.

Do Androids Dream is one of my favorite novels, but in a way it is too "smart" for its own good, has too much to say about race and eugenics and on and on. Much like The Man in the High Castle, the adaptation isn't particularly faithful, but it's the one we needed at the time.

Anyway, much as I love Blade Runner, I think it's pretty clearly worse on gender and labor than the novel. It's aesthetically monumental but politically very shallow. Like c'mon, it's the height of the Reagan era and Scott can't translate the tiniest bit of the novel's racial politics to film?

“The TV set shouted, “—duplicates the halcyon days of the pre-Civil War Southern states! Either as body servants or tireless field hands, the custom-tailored humanoid robot—designed specifically for YOUR UNIQUE NEEDS, FOR YOU AND YOU ALONE—given to you on your arrival absolutely free, equipped fully, as specified by you before your departure from Earth; this loyal, trouble-free companion in the greatest, boldest adventure contrived by man in modern history will provide—” It continued on and on.”
