As noted above, I'm an archivist by trade, dad by calling, and a 51 y.o. cishet man. I've been using Tumblr on & off since circa 2009 but I started this blog in 2022. I mostly reblog stuff with an effort to share posts that don't have many notes or are cool things I find from years and years ago.
My fandoms: Star Trek, Doctor Who, Star Wars, The Muppets
Mostly though I post about great books, great movies, and great music as well as photography, birding, cats, theater, dance, Boston and New England things, women's hockey, and left-leaning politics.
My Tumblr side blogs:
MetroSoxual - my baseball blog where I mostly post about the Mets and Red Sox (hence the name)
Pod-the-Mts - where I share the best podcast episodes I'm listening to.
Tumbl-Reference Shelf - where I reblog all those really informative and helpful (and sometimes silly) Tumblr posts so I can find them easily later on.
Other places you can find me on the internet:
Panorama of the Mountains - my Wordpress blog
Street Archivist - my Instagram collection of street art, graffiti, and sticker art
LibraryThing - catalog of all the books I've ever read!
Letterboxd - catalog of all the movies I've ever watched!
Bluesky - where I share my mostly random thoughts
O-the-Mts means "of the mountains" although I've never actually lived in the mountains.

Doctor Who Television Review: The Hungry Earth/Cold Blood
Episode: The Hungry Earth/Cold Blood
Story Number: 209
Series: 5
Screenwriter: Chris Chibnall
Director: Ashley Way
Thoughts:
Uh-oh, itâs a Chris Chibnall two-parter! And while itâs quite Chibnall-y (ex. The Doctor uttering all the exposition in monologue), it also feels an awful like a spruced-up version of a Third Doctor Era story when the Silurians were first introduced. Unfortunately, theâŚ
Even in a post-capitalist, post-consumerist world, you still need to produce goods, as a result of this, you need factories because it is more effective to have a few people making a lot of clothes in a factory than every woman being forced to sit down and spin wool all day.
The issue with factories is poor wages, unsafe working conditions and environmental impact, all of which can be fixed through things like regulatory bodies and unions, the issue is not the fact that goods are no longer all made at home
you can have a guild-owned, guild-run, sustainable and ethical small- to mid-size clothing factory. or laundromat. or kitchen. all of these once-domestic tasks can become industrialized without the capitalism and greed.
the factory isn't evil. it's a building full of machines and materials.
Likewise, automation is a good thing, because it keeps humans from doing tasks that humans do not like to do and which cause them harm. The evil is not the touchscreen for ordering your food, the evil is the owner of the quick-service restaurant hoarding all the wealth that restaurant generates and not giving it to the community. The evil is not the soda machine replacing the soda jerker, it's that the owner of the soda machine does not contribute to the community and capitalism saying that people must earn the right to live.
You have to completely rethink what "work" means for this to change. You have to redesign it so that it is based on what is needed in the community rather than what can be exploited. If we don't need a soda jerker anymore, she is free to pursue what she enjoys to do. Maybe that is blacksmithing, or glassblowing. Maybe it is sculpture or dancing. These things are always needed by every community. She is not "out of work" she is FREE TO PURSUE.
