A tweet by Anton Jäger (@/AntonJaegermm) reading "Very cool how every piece of digital technology is now purposively designed to breed illiteracy". This is followed by a screenshot of text reading "This appears to be a long document. Save time by reading a summary"

This post was retweeted by Boze the Library Owl 😴🧙 (@/SketchesbyBoze) who added "In Fahrenheit 451, the abolition of reading began with tech companies simplifying books into summaries that you could read in five minutes. Because people no longer engaged with the texts, they forgot how to think. Then came the book-burnings."

Quick and sketchy art with Ed ( ￣▽￣)

Sometimes you gotta go crazy and draw fanart of your favourite fanfic :)

Omg they kill me

like it makes sense thematically, connecting with the way the series makes you& the characters break down the assumptions that you've made or what you've been told (nothing is the way it is "just because") AS WELL AS being a really logical extension of how we have already seen alchemy as a tool of like. imperialism. like we know that the philosophers stone/red stones are already powered on people (esp people being taken advantage of) so it makes sense that alchemical power is fueled on it. it's just more of the way the show is constantly recontextualising EVERYTHING that is happening

its also REALLY WELL DONE and i am a big fan of watching london ed die by blimp. and beethoven fifth symphony to immediately make you understand what tthe hell this is earth is awesome.

also really good setup for what cos starts doing with emphasizing how amestris is a LOT like nazi germany. like criticism of that movie aside (i do think it's ultimately well done and i love noah. thats unrelated but i have to bring her up) it's a REALLY good setup that further develops what the series is already saying re the military and imperialism
