Since I got a fairly positive reaction, I'm starting my summary of the VegasPete Story. I'll be tagging the posts "#vp chapter by chapter", so check back!

Before We Start-- KinnPorsche Novel Ending, and things to know
The show diverges at a few key points, and excludes several characters. Here's the basics for show-only fans:
Two characters who appear in the novel that show-only fans may not be aware of:
Nop - A former main family bodyguard turned minor family subordinate. In the KinnPorsche novel, he brought the captured Pete food and advised Pete to remain calm. His advice led to Pete treating Vegas with kindness and directly led to their relationship.
Dr Top - A Theerapanyakul-owned doctor. Tutored high school-aged Macau, and takes care of both parts of the family when injured or sick. Macau believes Top is his first love. He and Tankhun are fighting for Dr Top’s attention.
Gun is still abusive in the novel, with bonus homophobia because why not. He also has a series of mistresses, which Vegas blames for his mother’s suicide and also uses as an excuse for his own misogyny. Gun’s current mistress, Prim, is pregnant (and about the same age as Vegas).
Porsche’s mom is dead dead. Korn kept her body on ice in his greenhouse because??????? Korn and Gun have conflicting stories about Nampheung’s death, but ostensibly she killed herself because one of the brothers killed her husband and possibly sexually assaulted her. Locked in the greenhouse with Porsche and Kinn, Korn shoots Gun. Vegas, locked on the other side of the door, snaps and runs, ending up in a car crash.
In the hospital, Gun’s mistress gets into an argument with Macau. According to her, Gun intended to disinherit Vegas and Macau in favor of her new baby. Macau pushes her, causing her water to break and Prim to go into labor. Prim disappears from the hospital, leaving the baby behind.
Pete, having chosen to resign as a bodyguard in order to move in with Vegas, enthusiastically decides to adopt the new baby, naming him “Venice”. Vegas is not terribly pleased by this development, but he’s a sucker for Pete so I guess they have a baby now. Kim shows up at the hospital and tells Vegas to sign over the minor family’s holdings back to the major family, since Gun’s dead. Also Macau has clinical depression. Given his family, I’m not surprised.
SPEAKING OF THE MAJOR FAMILY: Kinn is officially the heir to the major family, and Korn gives Porsche the signet ring for the minor family. That done, he pulls Kim aside and hands him control of Korn’s personal secret organization. And so, the Theerapanyakuls continue to set up their sons to kill each other.

"Clearly I wasn't talking about disabled people-" yeah part of the problem is that the existence of disabled people just isn't considered in your worldview like that's the problem we're criticizing not a get out of jail free card
yeah i drive the truck that isekais all those lonely 20yo NEETs and bored salarymen. it’s a really hard job. they keep sending me to workplace counselling after each hit. “it’s normal to feel guilt at ending someone’s life,” they say. how do i tell them that’s not what makes me feel guilty? “but it’s okay. he’ll live a better life in another world.” yeah, with 100 girls who could have lived normal lives but got drafted into being in these boring dudes’ harems. how many women’s lives have i ruined. and they don’t even know. they don’t even know
Sounds like you need "His Soul is Marching On to Another World; or, the John Brown Isekai" by CabbagePreacher, an actual fic on AO3 about famed abolitionist martyr John Brown getting isekaied to such a world and going on a rampage abolishing harems.

being Jewish and worshipping Gd has elements that are inherently erotic, and we have too much going on existentially to be dealing in sexual shame most of the time
ALSO in the times of the beis hamikdash men used to wear tefillin all day including when they were on the battle field and sometimes I imagine jewish warriors all bloodied and tough and wearing tefillin and… woah mama
There's a recurring online tendency to aestheticize consensus itself. The imagined future village is full of emotionally compatible people who enjoy communal gardening, conflict resolution circles, acoustic folk music, mutual aid potlucks, and repairing bicycles together at sunset. Which is nice for the people who genuinely enjoy that lifestyle. But plenty of humans are solitary, prickly, obsessive, urban, nocturnal, sensory-seeking, technologically attached, contrarian, novelty-seeking, private, or just plain difficult. Those people do not evaporate after the revolution. They do not get Left Behind while you are Raptured into the Utopia. They become your neighbors.
My biggest aha moment as a leftist was when I was volunteering with an illegal supply distro group at one of the larger homeless encampments and a guy came through the breakfast line with a swastika tattoo and a machete tucked into the waistband of his pants. We asked one of the black residents of the encampment if he was a problem, and they said that he was fine and never bothered anyone. Tough to swallow pill is that sometimes you're gonna have to give services to a homeless nazi because he's just as powerless and starving as less "problematic" victims, and that "everyone deserves food/water/shelter" does still apply to people you hate.
You gotta learn how to work with and help very difficult people on a very wide spectrum, otherwise you're just trying to force reality into a neat pretty box the same way conservatives do.

Do you have any advise on using sock accounts on social media to monitor fascist groups? I made a fake Facebook, but I'm having a hard time finding the right page to follow and I know some of the groups will reject my join requests because my account is obviously fake
We may or may not have hosted an entire webinar on this topic this past summer. Would you like to see some of the notes from that session?
RIP Marjane Satrapi, author of the amazing graphic novels Persepolis about living during the fundamentalist revolution in Iran in the 70’s and 80’s. She also created the animated movie based on the graphic novels, which is where these gifs come from.
alright I've got to do some quick math to explain attitudes towards AI to my boss.
we're looking to create an AI policy, and when we were talking about this, my boss (older millennial) was genuinely shocked to hear that younger people do not (seem) to view AI positively (a la the recent commencement speakers being booed)
please rb for larger sample size!
Question 1/3
What is your age, and do you feel AI is a net positive or net negative in our lives today?
This got more traction than I imagined and has motivated me to make a more thorough survey where I can actually parse the data.
No email is necessary to input to complete the survey. Please also consider sharing this off tumblr with people in your life to get a broader sample, especially people who love history and love museums!
Please give your thoughts on Generative AI (such as Sora, ChatGPT, Claude, etc.) usage in museums, archives, and other cultural heritage sit
