@Nnedi I've been thinking about this story for months now. Few other stories capture the depravity of this moment. PS. I only came here to see if it's still worth engaging on this hellish platform. And this post was the first one to come up...

For some perspective, I highly recommend reading LeGuin’s short story, “The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas”.

PSA. One of the best alternatives to Adobe CC, called Affinity, is on sale through 1/24. Only 100$ one time payment for all three apps (Designer, Photo, Publisher) for Win, Mac, and iOS. It's a steal! #design #UXdesign #Affinity affinity.serif.com/en-us/

Democracy for the sake of elections, instead of elections for the sake of democracy. That's the system we're stuck in.

@AaronHunyady @amandakhurley @ibogost It's not that easy. Sometimes it takes hours to get the verification email.

@inkblurt @mediajunkie @ibogost May be Twitter having so many users IS the problem.

Cats against handouts!

Jake Flores 🇵🇸🇲🇽@feraljokes

Someone once said libertarians are in fact like cats in that they consider themselves to be fiercely independent and autonomous of the safety system that keeps them from dying constantly, of which they are keenly unaware

May be you need to, I don't know..., read some books on the matter.

Edward Snowden@Snowden

I've never understood the political fear of Libertarians. "Sure, they're not in power now, but someday they might take over and... uh, leave you alone, I guess, since that's kind of their whole deal." It's like being afraid of cats.

Anyway if you like reading stories about Magic, hackers, love, politics and the Islamic Civilization, check out Alif the Unseen. It's quite a treat.

On ways of knowing and colonialism: “I think we’re going back to the way things used to be, before a bunch of European intellectuals in tights decided to draw a line between what’s rational and what’s not. I don’t think our ancestors thought the distinction was necessary.”

I don't read fantasy at all, but two people, independently of each other, recommended Alif the Unseen by the brilliant @GWillowWilson. And being a Ms Marvel fan, I didn't need much more convoncing. Just finished it and this text hit me like a ton of bricks. Here are some gems...
