For Conquest, the Soviet Union’s otherness was absolute, and the Great Purges best seen through a prism of science fiction. Stalin as purger-in-chief did not have the ring of ‘a modern man, a terrestrial man, an earth man’, Conquest once said: ‘He sounds like a monster from some strange planet. I’ve written a science fiction novel amongst my various writings … and I think Stalin would fit in very well as a nonhuman.’ This worked not just for Stalin but for the Soviet Union in general, Conquest argued: ‘A science-fiction attitude is a great help in understanding the Soviet Union. It isn’t so much whether they’re good or bad, exactly; they’re not bad or good as we’d be bad or good. It’s far better to look at them as Martians than as people like us.’

Part of the edge possessed by delivery companies is ever-increasing property prices and restrictive zoning. If places were dense and mixed-use, the cost of transporting oneself to a purveyor of what you're seeking would be much lower than having someone bring it to you.

So! Before puberty, there's much less separation between men's and women's interest and capacity in technical fields. As performing zero-sum gender-features becomes incented (if you want to avoid being an incel), women who'd be capable of success in more remunerative fields start seeking positions more aligned with the gender they're trying to display. Resolving this would resolve any gender-ratio concerns in technical fields, some of the wage gap, many other concerns.
As it stands, only a small subset of organisations can have a socially-approved employee gender balance without sacrificing employee quality. If the population you're pulling from is smaller, your search costs will be higher for the same quality of person, meaning that orgs which have more capacity to spend for social position will be more able to discover talent in populations where the skillset's less prevalent. If you're Google, you want the gender ratio of your employees to be reputationally meaningful, because, being Google, you can afford to find them, whereas anyone trying to grow would have to trade off search costs against other investments (as reputation's a kind of capital). Additionally, for any given path feeding into the industry, if you are Google, you can make a better offer: you might be able to exhaust the stock of 10x & 100x employees findable in some niche, and so you gain acclaim for your progressive values relative to smaller and newer businesses.
They could pivot from this so easily because the values were always reputational (as many are, and as needs attention even should they be held deeper). Becoming Based for quotidian marketing reasons was always what they were doing, and so twisting with the wind was easy.

The tags are variably-legible: #bodyby holds people in many states (drawn, disassembled, flushed), #microthedas has textposts, #caustic's where slurs are, #spectocular goes on aesthetic posts, #selfsaid's for originals, #piping's for brain noise, #flashinglights is for epileptic-fit-inducing media, #horus in ebony is pointed at sociality and intuition, #newton's spine of six and more contains durable identity content, #romanticystic is a subset of #bodyby and #putpaces is about fighting, for example. This post's tagged with the regularly-used. The theme and such are all broken, and will be fixed at some point (though the intended viewing experience is via the app). Most posts are queued.
Some of the tags contain things you would not like to see, probably. I'm opposed to this in principle, but they're there to be blocked.
Ideally it'd go without saying, but I don't endorse everything said by anyone I reblog.

Career civil servants often endure stressful working conditions, but in the Trump White House, some of them face online trolling from alt-right bloggers who seek to portray them as clandestine partisans plotting to sabotage the president’s agenda. The online attacks often cite information that appears to be provided by unnamed White House officials or Trump loyalists.
Cernovich acknowledges that he’s going after McMaster’s staff. “Personnel is policy,” he wrote in response to queries for this article. “The NSC and State are the most interesting beats to cover, because the hiring and firing decisions within State and NSC will determine whether America enters another disastrous ground war, as H.R. McMaster and his mentor David Petraeus desire,” he wrote. “McMaster has stacked the NSC with pro-war globalists, some of whom came from the Obama administration and others who were ‘Never Trump’ers.’”
“alt-right” seems to be doing a lot of heavy lifting here, without it you have a pretty Dog Bites Man story of “administration factions wield media leaks against each other”, but if I’m reading between the lines right, hey, Steve Bannon’s realized Mike Cernovich’s following can be operationalized against low-level enough officials to cut H.R. McMaster’s supporters out from under him.
I both buy and pirate things: I buy because I want to pay for things, and I pirate because I want to own them. I plan on giving a random amount of money to the Black Library and pirating whatever costs the same amount over some span of time (as resources allow). I have managed to only give $70 in cash to people this week (cigarettes are a cash purchase now that the state's ceded an incredibly valuable niche to organised crime, as is inevitable when a polity enacts unenforcable laws in a place that has so much drug use in the youth culture because alcohol is expensive, so I can direct my spending more effectively ATM (by that indicator).
