New from me: Furiosa is a.) a good movie b.) an attempt to process the dark, weird experience of living in the 2020s c.) an epic in the Beowulf or Gilgamesh mode, d.) all of the above.

The answer, of course, is D. This movie captures RIGHT NOW perfectly.

Every so often I see people in academia talking about how we 'all know' who not to trust, and I'm like - I do not know. I have never been in these conversations, for whatever reason. We do not 'all know' about the predators.

if you loved someone's writing and you now find out that their sexual ethics are awful to you... I just want to say that it says nothing about you that you loved their work and nothing about you that you learned from the work. if the work 'changed your life', consider that you did that yourself.

Newsletter: Goldman Sachs has called BS on Generative AI, and I believe that it's time that everybody follows suit - generative AI is unreliable, unsustainable, requires an entire rebuild of America's power grid, and is most decidedly not the future.

Listening to an interview with an Intercept guy who's been reporting from Gaza and he asked a source if they could use Google Meet and the guy said "Hamas prefers Zoom," which I can already tell is one of those phrases that's going to rattle around in my head forever.

genderqueer feels more "active" to me - like actively not doing gender binary instead of just... not being binary. (I'm very much speaking out of turn here as I don't think of myself as either)

A month or so ago I had a dream where I was either playing or in a video game (it was hard to tell) and part of the game was finding these hidden totems called Wishboons. I don’t know what they did but I haven’t stopped thinking about them since so I made one

I see we've reached the "famous artist credibly accused of sexual assault wasn't actually a great artist and you're a chump for liking him" phase. Consider that pretending terrible people can't make great art helps terrible people who make great art whedon their way into vulnerable communities.

I don’t know writer/journalist Annabel Ross personally, but what she had to say about the Gaiman situation covers a fair bit of what I think so far… now I’ll go back to trying to find an emoji that conveys β€œgoddammit I’m so fucking furious & sad & exhausted”

James Wide worked for the Cape Town–Port Elizabeth Railway service. He lost his legs in a railcar jumping accident, & so he purchased a Chacma baboon in 1881, called him Jack, & trained him to push his wheelchair and to operate the railways signals under supervision, which he did for beer.

a few years ago it seemed fashionable to complain that school children were taught too much about WWII and not enough about everything else but I gotta say, I think a lot of people have not learnt enough about WWII.
