I think capitalism is bad because it takes freedom and peace and happiness from 99.999% of the world and in exchange only produces rapidly intensifying lethal climate events, but yeah I guess communism is scary too

Don’t pay to get published. Don’t pay for book reviews. Real agents won’t charge you a cent. Real publishers don’t make you pay for anything. Don’t submit to markets that don’t pay.

The most infuriating thing about the proposed cuts to NASA and the NSF is that the administration hasn't even bothered to try justifying it (particularly in the case of NASA). They want to shut down fully-functional on-going space missions to save trivial amounts of money, for no good reason

Nowadays therapists encourage victims of #trauma to write as part of their therapy. Two centuries ago, Mary Shelley seemed to understand the value of writing as a way to cope with grief and depression.

What are good movies to start getting into Indian classic cinema? From as early as the beginning through the 60s? Esp for people into mystery, horror, long shots of scenery... #movierecs #moviereccommendations (I will also Google I'm not absurd)

Rewatched The River (1951) tonight after going lake swimming and feeling a longing for a deep connection to a particular place. Closest I've felt was in Finland tbh

Missed childhood vaccinations. Skipped blood sugar checks. Medications abandoned at the pharmacy. These are among the healthcare disruptions providers have noticed since ICE operations began in Southern California earlier this month. www.latimes.com/science/stor...

ICE is literally beating and kidnapping Americans in the streets and disappearing them to gulags in other countries but yeah, let's instead demonize the Iranian American and American Muslim communities with good old "sleeper cell" fear mongering to distract from Trump's illegal war with Iran.

It's hard to encapsulate for younger readers just how identical to the Iraq push every note of this has been, from the GOP lies to the media consent manufacturing to the Dem paralysis. It's been said a million times, but it can't be said enough. It was only 20 years ago!

Is being “scared” of a Brown man a Jewish trait according to Steven? Surely that’s antisemitic of him to say so.

The idea that pro-trans movements led to anti-trans sentiment is egregiously out of touch with reality. Increased LGBTQ representation led to historic shifts in public opinion toward the community. The aggressively bigoted and violent campaigns that lied about trans people are clearly responsible

I completely agree with Fry here. #JKRowling is totally a lost cause. She has been given so many opportunities to make things right with the trans community. She is #TERF to her core now, in all its ugly forms. Oh she's been radicalised alright. A bigot with a capital B! www.lgbtqnation.com/...
