As for the kinds of chaos she gets up to, there's the street fighting, the orgies, the persistent use of illegal drugs. Arson, assault and battery, grand larceny, music piracy. Lottie gets thrown out a 5th storey window, illegally imprisoned, run through with a sword. You know, high school stuff.

Every single tag is there and in full-force, I actually can't quite put enough tags on it by AO3's limitations. Also every chapter has chapter-specific content warnings at the start. Some may be jokey, but they're still all true!

Found some 15 year old Avery 4"×6" labels, and now my freezer is adorned with some good old-fashioned antimonarchism. Looks like shit and by God I love it. Lot of toner came off on my finger, though. Could be the age of the paper.
A picture of the poster's chest freezer, centered on a new fuckass sticker she has put on it. The image is of Sergei Lukin's seminal 1958 painting "It Has Come to Pass," lightly cropped and edited to work with the constraints of the sticker's size and my black and white printer. The print quality is bad.

imagining bigger things for ~~me~~ her
A blue collar working class trans woman in the trades (depicted as a cute kitten in an orange hard hat) sips at her white monster next to a 3 for $8 monster energy deal. In her mind are thoughts of her partners at home who make it all worth it, an unemployed (but incredibly important to the community and function of the household) princess (depicted as a tabby cat in a tiara and a bed of flowers) and a nonbinary  software engineer (depicted as a black cat wearing the same witch hat fae wears to work including on slack calls). 

She is having a rough day but the thought of getting her wives out of Kansas City and to Sacramento drives her, drives all of them forward day to day. This is depicted by a flutter of lesbian hearts above their heads showing the love they have for each other and how much it helps them make it through the day

Steal office supplies from work and learn how to do printer formatting so you can make your own Swan Boy merch! "If you get fired, it's @bransonreese.bsky.social's fault!"
A selection of art from Swan Boy, by Branson Reese, printed out onto a sheet of yellow 1.25 inch stickers. The alignment is poor, and the print quality is okay at best.

The top row of three features three identical Swan Boy Dandolos portraits.

The second row features, in order: Cassie Iscariot screaming "Shut up! Shut the fuck up!" From behind her drum kit, Noel Household sitting in an armchair with a thought balloon that says "I should jack off," and Rona Valenti in winter wear making odd gestures with her hands while laughing.

There is a third row, half cutoff because it is not relevant, featuring a three-eyed smiley face. The rightmost sticker is missing, having been put on my chest freezer.

Jesus Christ, can @mochamelt.bsky.social deliver! I decided I needed some art of the main character of my book, Lottie Schwartzhart, and I *could not be happier!* Finally, an image I can post to set the tone. Now to burn my fun money on the other six main characters...
Commissioned art of the poster's OC/main character of their book, Lottie Schwartzhart. She is undead with gray skin, black and white hair, and a death scar across her neck. She is dressed like a 90s alternative dyke (because she is one), with a Grandaddy shirt and Chuck Taylors. She is sitting in a confidently relaxed posture, smoking while smirking. She has a baseball bat at her side, with her foot propped up on the stolen crown of her worst enemy.

started listening to the audiobook of The Making of the Atomic Bomb by richard rhodes on my walks and came across the Death Machine passage this morning. still hits like a hammer 15 years after I first read it. my GOAT will never be washed
“The machine gun mechanized war. Artillery and gas mechanized war. They were the hardware of the war, the tools. But they were only proximately the mechanism of the slaughter. The ultimate mechanism was a method of organization—anachronistically speaking, a software package.376 “The basic lever,” the writer Gil Elliot comments, “was the conscription law, which made vast numbers of men available for military service.377 The civil machinery which ensured the carrying out of this law, and the military organization which turned numbers of men into battalions and divisions, were each founded on a bureaucracy. The production of resources, in particular guns and ammunition, was a matter for civil organization. The movement of men and resources to the front, and the trench system of defence, were military concerns.” Each interlocking system was logical in itself and each system could be rationalized by those who worked it and moved through it. Thus, Elliot demonstrates, “It is reasonable to obey the law, it is good to organize well, it is ingenious to devise guns of high technical capacity, it is sensible to shelter human beings against massive firepower by putting them in protective trenches.”

“What was the purpose of this complex organization? Officially it was supposed to save civilization, protect the rights of small democracies, demonstrate the superiority of Teutonic culture, beat the dirty Hun, beat the arrogant British, what have you. But the men caught in the middle came to glimpse a darker truth. “The War had become undisguisedly mechanical and inhuman,” Siegfried Sassoon allows a fictional infantry officer to see. “What in earlier days had been drafts of volunteers were now droves of victims.”378 Men on every front independently discovered their victimization. Awareness intensified as the war dragged”“on. In Russia it exploded in revolution. In Germany it motivated desertions and surrenders. Among the French it led to mutinies in the front lines. Among the British it fostered malingering.Whatever its ostensible purpose, the end result of the complex organization that was the efficient software of the Great War was the manufacture of corpses. This essentially industrial operation was fantasized by the generals as a “strategy of attrition.” The British tried to kill Germans, the Germans tried to kill British and French and so on, a “strategy” so familiar by now that it almost sounds normal. It was not normal in Europe before 1914 and no one in authority expected it to evolve, despite the pioneering lessons of the American Civil War. Once the trenches were in place, the long grave already dug (John Masefield’s bitterly ironic phrase), then the war stalemated and death-making overwhelmed any rational response.379 “The war machine,” concludes Elliot, “rooted in law, organization, production,”

“movement, science, technical ingenuity, with its product of six thousand deaths a day over a period of 1,500 days, was the permanent and realistic factor, impervious to fantasy, only slightly altered by human variation.”380No human institution, Elliot stresses, was sufficiently strong to resist the death machine.381 A new mechanism, the tank, ended the stalemate. An old mechanism, the blockade, choked off the German supply of food and matériel. The increasing rebelliousness of the foot soldiers threatened the security of the bureaucrats. Or the death machine worked too well, as against France, and began to run out of raw material. The Yanks came over with their sleeves rolled up, an untrenched continent behind them where the trees were not hung with entrails. The war putrified to a close.But the death machine had only sampled a vast new source of raw material: the civilians behind the lines. It had not yet evolved equipment efficient to process them, only big gunsand clumsy biplane bombers. It had not yet evolved the necessary rationale that old people and women and children are combatants equally with armed and uniformed young men. That is why, despite its sickening squalor and brutality, the Great War looks so innocent to modern eyes.

like I suspect many of you on This Website, I think a core reason why I find Eliezer Yudkowsky and his rationalist and effective altruist satellites so intensely annoying is because I had a VERY similar “being a super weird, pretentious, hyper-literate kid” experience - I just, you know, grew up.
