You can eat a dinner, anytime

I was debating pre- and post- smartphone existentialism with an older gentleman today and he stopped part way through and said “Why are you a security guard? Why aren’t you teaching this at some college somewhere?” And I didn’t know what to say so I went with “Well I used to make art but nobody pays an artist”

I want to invoke thought and wonder and introspection and encourage the passions of every soul I meet forever and ever and dig until I find the glorious potential for creation and experience and joy in every single one but unfortunately I must pay rent and so I stand, a meat shield, an NPC with unlockable dialogue

#capitalism brain tells you that anyone interesting must fight to the top of their interest#and precludes the possibility of everyone everyone everyone already being interesting

(no beers in) does anyone wanna keep me as their house pet forever

And what is it we just talked about in book club?? THIS.

@creatingblackcharacters hey, which book was it? I know Medical Apartheid is the one coming up, but I can't find the one you're all currently on

If it was April 22nd, that book was Mediocre by Ijeoma Oluo. We're on Medical Apartheid currently, actually. Just started today.

if i was in charge of star trek i would cut 60% of the special effects budget and put that money into spec bio. no more epic space battles we are spending the episode hanging out with bajoran marine biologists

This would be so cool.

gothic horror is when there's a location. cosmic horror is when there's an unauthorized fucking Thing. folk horror is when you're outside.

Okay, what is it when there's an unauthorized fucking Thing lurking outside of a location?

Then you’re in John Carpenter’s 1982 masterpiece The Thing

It is so fucking funny to me how easily scandalized some people are wym callout post for a cannibalism kink. Grow up. This is the nothingburger leagues and you're throwing up in the stands

It’s actually the peopleburger leagues
