DISPATCH FROM STRUCTURE X 

PRESIDENT FRANKENSTEIN has successfully removed the barrier of debris and scrap metal erected by unknown persons, blocking all access to Floor 87.

Floor 87 appears to be a hotel lobby. dimly-lit but not dark, recessed lighting in low popcorned ceilings, lavishly carpeted in relaxing colors, corporate-approved abstract art on the walls, brass and teak fixtures, scattered ferns and tasteful rock gardens, thoughtfully-designed modern furniture in clusters. an empty check-in desk. slight odor of freshly-brewed coffee and disinfectant, sources not found. a low buzz of muzak, barely audible, speakers not apparent.

there does not appear to be a point in locality where the hotel lobby begins, or ends. there are no elevators or vestibule. walls and doorways lead to more vast expanses of lobby--tastefully appointed, comfortable, sense- and emotion-deadening, and empty. a place to be inhabited temporarily, recreated in an eternal moment, replicated to inhabit an infinite space.

PRESIDENT FRANKENSTEIN has considered several hypotheses regarding the reasons behind Floor 87's existence, none of them good. a consensus was reached to reassemble the barrier and mark the area in the Ledger using the red pen.

hey did you know I spent 2011-2015 doing a crazy graphic novel about a robot lady dragged outside of reality by her ex-boyfriend? It's all free online, or you can still buy a printed copy.

if you are on a phone then turn it sideways please, it's a very horizontal sort of affair that runs multiple color-coded timelines in parallel.

Reminder: fascists want you hopeless. They want you to think nothing matters. They want your expectations of justice to die.

Don't give them what they want. Hope is rebellion. Sincerity is bravery. Expect justice and don't be quiet about it.

On May 6, 1933, Nazi stormtroopers (Sturmabteilung) broke into this library, looted the building, killed at least one of the occupants, and hauled the majority of its books outside for a public book burning in the streets of the Opernplatz. Joseph Goebbels gave a speech to 40,000 people about "protecting our nation's children".

The photo has become an icon of Nazi German brutality and fascism. It is shown in school textbooks worldwide above the caption "Nazi book burnings, 1933". It is often published in news stories and social media whenever the subject of banning books arises.

What is not often mentioned in those stories is the SUBJECT of the burned books. The building was the Institute for the Science of Sexuality. The first of its kind, dedicated to studying trans people and trans identities, and performing gender confirming surgery for a number of patients. And the books that were burned were trans histories and trans patient records.

Remember, they came for trans people first.

I would like to propose a new term for the horrible rich people who keep shoving their asses into the news: HLWO. Human-Like Wealth Object. Pronounced close to “hollow”.

having VNV Nation and Knower release new albums, both absolutely fantastic, and listening to both for the first time on the same day is an embarrassment of riches. sometimes the world is okay.
