There are so many good artists on the internet. So inspiring. And you can just talk to them? Incredible

Judith Butler Apology Form:

From: Date:

Reason for behaviour:

[ ] The media convinced me that feminism was solved in the 1980s
[ ] I never actually read their work
[ ] I miss not thinking about gender
[ ] I didn’t realize how much of society is built on gender
[ ] I was jealous of their nonbinary swag
[ ] Mercury was in retrograde

[ ] I will hereby respect JUDITH BUTLER and I will not talk down on the best feminist thinker of our lifetimes

many are pointing out this would make remote work impossible, but I'm not even sure how you could usefully *define* a VPN in legalese that wouldn't also encompass lots of other important stuff: logging into your bank over HTTPS? Even your WiFi is kinda like a VPN.

Anyone?

The unifying human spirit manifests in such beautiful ways. Like hearing a dance remix of a song in a language you don't speak and immediately picking up that it's a "your team sucks ass" footy chant by its aura alone

An MFA will never prepare you to become a writer. To become a writer you must first be raised on the Yorkshire moors with your equally creative siblings, with whom you write a series of interconnected fantasy narratives

Using this to both highlight the article and ask a question of @paullecomtephoto.nz am I off-base in thinking women's hockey showcases more technical skill than men's, just because they spend less time trying to smash each other? I found it better to watch as a non-hockey person.

I did not. But since I did, I'm inflicting this on all of you as well.

The launch of every piece of AI-driven surveillance/security/criminal justice software basically goes like this:

AI COMPANY: this is an error free, bias free, state of the art, highly intelligent software system

Clearing out shit is stressful, because a significant reason I kept the amount of junk I have is that it's all fucking plastic and I feel guilty
