im glad the white folks are finally speaking up on how annoying dog culture is but yall were the ones who set that system up i fear
āwhy are dogs everywhereā you liked them more than poc
when James Baldwin said I canāt be a pessimist because Iām alive
when James Baldwin said to be a pessimist means that you have agreed that human life is an academic matter. So I am forced to be an optimist. I am forced to believe that we can survive whatever we must survive.
My grandma just called and, among other things, saidĀ āYou have hips. Thatās good! Men like hips!ā and then she interrupted herself to sayĀ āWomen like hips. People of your preferred gender like hips. I can never rememberāĀ And I was likeĀ āThanks grandma! My preferred gender is none of them, no thanks.ā and she was likeĀ āOkay, no one will comment on your hips!ā very self satisfied, likeĀ āaha, I have figured it outā I think like half her grandkids are some variety of not-straight and she canāt always remember which is which but she is the epitome of like āsheās a little confused, but sheās got the spirit!ā
Update: I gave it some thought and my estimate was wrong. Of the grandkids that are out, itās 1/3, not ½
I told my grandma that Iād told my friends about what she said and that some of yāall had said you wished she was your grandma, and she saidĀ āWell, you can never have too many grandkids!āĀ So likeā¦consider her your honorary grandma* I guess? *if you want an honorary grandma, that is
Update on my grandma: I told her my hair was standing up, but instead of straight line it was diagonal and she saidĀ āThatās okay, youāve never been straight!ā and then laughed so hard at her own joke I thought she was going to drop the phone
Happy almost pride month! Have my confused-but-supportive grandma!
An update: my grandma just called me to ask if I knew it was pride month
Happy pride month!!
Apparently someone got their car stuck on the light rail tracks at Mt. Baker. For those unfamiliar this is 35 feet up in the air
First test flight of a flying car by Mazda partially a success
I feel like the Arizona license plate should take some place in our analysis of whatever in the goddam fuck weāre looking at here

i've been phasing the phrase 'google it' out of my vocabulary and going back to 'look it up'. fuck you youve lost your generic trademark privileges
seconding these tags by @ragsy: #if the social consciousness has decided that duckduckgo is the Only Othet Search Engine#might i suggest 'go duck yourself'
On earth most animals aim to be symmetrical and so have an even amount of limbs. Reading that Rocky had five left me puzzled, obviously he's an alien, but was there precedent in nature for such a phenomenon? What was the point of five rather than 4 or 6? ...Then, I looked at my own hands and felt silly. Still, that connection made me happy.
you have permission to pick that 2 year old "abandoned" project back up. it's not mad at you for setting it aside. and maybe time and distance have helped ease or erase the things that made you put it down in the first place.
i started this battle jacket before i got medicated for my adhd and it's literally been hanging in my closet with the patches pinned to it for two years + a move. and now that i am medicated, i had the ability to ask myself why exactly the hand stitching was giving me such an issue to begin with, and then i was able to carry that into searching up solutions to the problem. it hurt my hands! and using an embroidery hoop, sewing with a thimble, and using pliers to pull the needle through the really thick patches solved all those problems!
and look, it's not mad at me! it's like i never abandoned it in the first place!

thought that just occurred to me and now I need to inflict it on you all:
The failure mode of Andy Weir is Ernest Cline.
Thereās a highly specific style of sci-fi written by a highly specific kind of author: straight, white, male, Gen X, usually from North America and with a STEM degree, who was a Nerd in high school and still has a vision of Nerdiness strongly defined by a straight, white, male, Gen X experience. An experience of reading a lot of Heinlein and Asimov and Tolkien in high school, where Apollo 11 happened before he was born and space exploration was happening at what felt like an ever-increasing pace, where computers were rapidly advancing and every advance was exciting, where video games were played in arcades or were text adventures with minimal graphics, where Star Wars was mind-blowing and Star Trek was experienced as reruns so The Next Generation was cool and exciting, where fanfiction is not part of their fannish experience and probably never occurred to them, where blogging on your own website was a natural part of internet culture, where the economic boom of the 80s meant engineering/programming/IT jobs were easy to get.
These influences define the niche that Andy Weir and Ernest Cline both write in, as well as certain other prominent figures like John Scalzi, Randall Munroe, Cory Doctorow, and kind of Rich Berlew.
Itās not an indictment of them; itās just a particular niche. However, due to the specifics of such authorsā identities and experiences, they can often write with the apparent idea that they are not specific; that they are universal and apolitical. This often comes with an idea that they believe in racial/gender/sexuality equality, and they do because they believe equality is good and humans are all more alike than we're different and humanity is fundamentally decent, but also they not-infrequently write like they donāt really know any gay people or people of color and have never really thought very hard about it.
And one of the reasons I still havenāt read The Martian or Project Hail Mary even though I have been intending to for years and Iām confident I would enjoy them⦠is that in my large and ever-growing TBR I tend to de-prioritize this particular sci-fi niche. There are SO many good-sounding books in the world that I want to read and I tend to prioritize books by women, by authors of color, by queer authors, by authors with social science backgrounds. The only Scalzi Iāve read was Redshirts and it wasnāt that great and was kinda thoughtlessly sexist; and I have many, many thoughts about Ready Player One and Ready Player Two (almost none of them good lmao). I definitely have my beefs with Cory Doctorow despite respecting him in other ways. I found his YA novel Little Brother respectably ambitious but also kinda mediocre. And I have followed Order of the Stick and xkcd for more than a decade and you can really see the political/social evolution of the authors over time. Thatās another trend; you can see these authors reacting and adjusting to more nuanced gender/race/queer issues over time!
It just feels to me like a highly identifiable style, one that has been more miss than hit with me, which sometimes is made more frustrating by recurring beliefs that thereās nothing uniquely identifiable about it; that books by Gen X straight white men arenāt identity-based books like books by and about women and people of color and queer people are.
And. Like. I love Order of the Stick! I have Munroeās first āWhat Ifā book, autographed! And though Iāve read little of his fiction I think John Scalzi is overall a cool guy (though sometimes thinks heās funnier and cleverer than he is). And when I get around to reading The Martian and Project Hail Mary I also genuinely believe Iāll like themāI floated on fuzzy warm emotions for days after seeing the PHM movie, certainly! This isnāt to say this automatically makes a work bad. It does however make a work specific, in a way straight white men are rarely expected to think of their work as specific. But like. Itās a style, a niche, thatās definitely specific.
And Andy Weir takes it and writes widely beloved stories about hope and humanity and Ernest Cline takes it and writes about how being able to play video games and quote 80s movies better than anybody else means youāre the most important person on the planet.
