  • I’ve been seeing some people (not here, I’ve been taking a break) saying that we shouldn’t be mean to clankers by bringing up Kant’s position on being nice to animals. Well. Fuck all that.

  • One of my ongoing sidequests is creating a K-pop playlist of songs that describe the lifecycle of a bubble economy. I only discover songs through accident right now, so progress on this playlist is slow, but that means that I can store the whole list in my head. Here's the current playlist:

    1. "Golden" by Huntrix from KPOP Demon Hunters. "We're going up! up! up!"
    2. "Bubble Pop!" by HyunA. Self explanatory

    And finally, I can announce a new addition to this collection:

    Antifragile by LE SSERAFIM. Specifically, this is included as a reference to NNT's book and concept Antifragile. I think this is a good song to have at the end of the playlist to represent the economic analysis before and after a bubble.

    OFC I am open to suggestions! They have to be K-pop though.

  • I’d never been particularly ardent about believing it, but this right here is firm evidence to me that existing in a rigid gender binary is mental and spiritual poison. Whoever this person is, they’re never going to grow up.

    Honestly i feel like my role in many of my friendships is simply telling people that they don’t have to follow these prescriptions and are allowed to do things outside of them, and that following these prescriptions isn’t some magic pill that is going to fix their lives, and is more likely a poison. So yeah if you started ardently believing that, I would not be opposed.

    These people are bitter and sad because they are trying to perform in hypermasculine roles that only exist as fiction in marketing and propaganda. I’m bitter and sad because:

    • these people exist
    • i have to acknowledge that part of their ignorance is sustained by capitalist pressure and isn’t their fault
    • i also have to acknowledge that these people are ruining the world and still need to be destroyed because they never show signs that they can be rehabilitated
