okay brain, as payback for giving me a solid hour of semi-awake panicdoom dreams that i could only tamp down by picturing cartoonishly violent revenge fantasies, i just bought a bunch of leftist "how to resist" books and when they get here i'm gonna make you stop playing Civ a couple nights a week and we're gonna sit and read them and learn how to be better. and THEN once we're healed up we are going to go stickering twice a month with the stuff i just ordered from @municipaladhesives.
Nightmare Mode is a coping mechanism. he is not a real person (yet). he cannot solve our problems. we are the ones we have been waiting for.
dark have been my dreams of late.

Know what the absence of racism would look like for Black folks?
Ordinary-ness.
Just life.
Ordinary life.
I think we deserve that.
Don't you?

Here is the original inventor of rock and roll—and the steel guitar. Sister Rosetta Thorpe doesn’t get the credit—and she really should. Many of the rock and roll “inventors” need to pay their respects to her. Little Richard and Chuck Berry others owe a great deal to her. 🙏🏿

"We live in capitalism. Its power seems inescapable. So did the divine right of kings. Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings. Resistance and change often begin in art, and very often in our art, the art of words."

There's a reason nobody's dropped a track called "Fuck The Fire Department."

🧵 For #BlackHistoryMonth I want to recognize contributions made by Black people to some of the things I care about. I'm gonna kick things off by shining the spotlight on #MikePondsmith, best known as the creator of the #Cyberpunk tabletop RPG. Pondsmith enjoyed playing traditional games as a kid, went to school for graphic design and behavioral psychology, and ended up working in publishing. [continued]

the Voight Kampf test scenes in Blade Runner, but instead it's just Harrison Ford like "please try to draw a woman with correct number of fingers or teeth."

We all want the same things.
Physical safety.
Economic safety.
Love.
Happiness.
Some of us just want it for other people too.

Black men deserve to grow old.
welp, the CLRKN0VA project (aka the #cyberdeck) has its paint job, and like i said, i am not good at applying paint to things. but in some spots i think it looks okay, i like the big black stripe along the top vent. insert your own Gibson-speak reason while any good cyberdeck is made out of recycled trash and stolen parts anyway and therefore is supposed to look kinda slapdash.

Is it too late to amend the whole “punch Nazis” directive? While less environmentally friendly, this just seems way more efficient:

Make art. Anything. Just make life more beautiful. We need it.
