I think we all probably need this right now. I hope all suffering people get the help and support they need; I know this offering is inadequate, that all y'all deserve all that you need, that it is an intolerable injustice that we all ain't getting it. But please rest. Please make the time and space to be calm, to let your body and mind heal. If you can't rest, you just can't do anything.

SCP is one of the only fandoms I can stand to be near cause they seem to just mostly put their money where their mouth is about collaborative fiction. I'm sure someone out there is having feuds, but the whole spirit of the archives is to organize and catalog a world with plot rules and aesthetics that run on precedent. The flexibility means people can do whatever they want. The obsession with archival organization means we just give it its own timeline after a while, and it goes there as optional content.

Actually the real reason I transitioned was because my parents joked so many times about returning me to the child store I decided to void the warranty.

Actually the real reason I transitioned was my dad complained about women in golf so much I knew it was a sure fire way to make him stop trying to teach me golf.

Actually the real reason I transitioned was because I'm really supportive of my wife but I wanted to make shopping for their tampons feel less awkward.

Actually the real reason I transitioned was to prove to a point about the ending of the Scottish play to my 8th grade English teacher.

Actually the real reason I transitioned was because slutty shorts for men went out of style and I couldn't give them up.

Actually the real reason I transitioned was because my wife kept saying my ass was flat, NOW WHO HAS THE FAT ASS, HUH?

Actually the real reason I transitioned is my dad used to tell me I should devote myself to something I love and work hard on it, and I love women.

This Showdown replay might say more about me as a person than I'd like it to.

BOYCOTT AIRBNB

These people are trying to take over every aspect of our lives.

Longtime Airbnb hosts say they want nothing to do with Airbnb now that co-founder Joe Gebbia is reportedly joining Elon Musk’s government in

Revolution becomes a lot more imaginable when you remember that the "means of production" is fundamentally just all of our bodies, time, imaginations, choices - a lot of people have to keep on continuously making decisions, day by day and moment by moment, and it's entirely conceivable that if enough of those people, or the wrong tiny subset of them, just STOPPED contributing...it could all crumble out from under them. We don't actually need to destroy anything. Just build alternative means of meeting people's needs, and make those means so radically accessible that a centralized power structure based on minority rule just won't have the bodies to do more than wound the resulting mass movement of the people.

This takes understanding power as not exactly large but fractal. Power relies on all the small moments when we all choose personal comfort over filial loyalty to other humans: it relies on us not protesting evictions, not striking; it relies on us telling others that they have to follow the rules, and believing in the necessity of rules; it relies on us all being cops and pretending we are hapless bystanders.

I'm not saying undermining power isn't uncomfortable or dangerous, or that I don't understand why people do it -- *I* fucking do it of course I understand the logic. The thing is we ALL understand the logic of compliance, and we all have at least some relevant knowledge about the kinds of interpersonal relations we would need to feel safer taking risks with our personal welfare. At the end of the day, tho, it is only our compliance that secures our compliance.

people using the I’m just a girl song for their little videos but making them short enough to crop out the part of gwen stephani yelling that’s all you’ll let me be

The way some people looked at this song and went "omg yeah! i AM just a girl!" With no other consideration is fucking wild to me

Animal: has the coolest adaptations you can imagine

Science content popularizer: isn’t that horrifying?????

Oh no. I'm telling you we took the compressed, distorted, liquified remaines of flesh and bone and plant from millenia ago, hardened it into a disc as black as the deepest midnight, and cut the music into the surface of it in lines so tight no eye can penetrate them. And then we rubbed the diamond across it to make those old dead things sing and scream and wail.

This is fucking necromancy. And it just sounds better half the time. Especially for jazz, rock, and techno.

you don't want to know what we did with the stolen bee storage compartments

sorry prev i cant let this stay in the tags,,, you fascinate me. your reasoning makes a lot of sense tho

A few resultant thoughts/questions that made my forehead tense up:

Etching audio into a physical medium IS a sort of compression algorithm; analog isn't uncompressed it's just that a physical medium can have a level of data resolution in its physical arrangement that just *isn't possible* in digital.

Which leads me to the question: If a recording was made digitally or re-pressed from a digital recording for some reason, is it pointless to even put it on vinyl as the extra data from the live performance of the sound was lost the moment it got put into a digital medium?

i'm listening to gathering moss, by robin wall kimmerer, and she is talking about a very odd job she was consigned to do, where an eccentric millionaire recuited her to consult on a "habitat restoration". when she arrives, the job they actually want her to do is to tell them how to plant mosses on the rocks in his garden. he wants it to look like a specific, beautiful wild cliff in the woods nearby, with centuries-old beds of moss growing thick and strong. she tells him it is impossible. such a thing would take decades to accomplish.

later, she is called back to look at the progress of the moss garden and is amazed by the thick, well-established mosses. how did they do it? she asks.

then they take her out to the woods and show her that they have been blasting huge chunks of rock out of the cliff, packaging them in burlap, and moving them to the owner's garden.

This quote really got me: "The owner is a man who loves mosses, and the exercise of power. I have no doubts of his sincerity in wishing to protect them from harm, once they conformed to his landscape design. Β But I think you cannot own a thing and love it at the same time. Owning diminishes the sovreignty of a thing, enriching the possessor and diminishing the possessed. If he truly loved mosses more than control, he would have left them alone, and walked each day to see them."
