Happy There Is A Circulatory System Walking Through The Kitchen Day to all who celebrate.
It's an artistic representation of a circulatory system walking through a kitchen, as drawn by Dave Gibbons and written about by Alan Moore. It happens a lot 'round here.

The most powerful people in history have retreated to an elaborate cybernetic fantasy-world that they built for themselves so they can escape their fear of an imagined end of the world, and they demand you join them there because that is the only way they can maintain the illusion of control.

acutelesbian: A lot of people ask me what my biggest fear is, or what scares me most. And I know they expect an answer like heights, or closed spaces, or people dressed like animals, but how do I tell them that when I was 17 I took a class called Relationships For Life and I learned that most people fall out of love for the same reasons they fell in it. That their lover's once endearing stubbornness has now become refusal to compromise and their one track mind is now immaturity and their bad habits that you once adored is now money down the drain. Their spontaneity becomes reckless and irresponsible and their feet up on your dash is no longer sexy, just another distraction in your busy life. Nothing saddens and scares me like the thought that I can become ugly to someone who once thought all the stars were in my eyes. touchmykittykat: Everytime I read this it fucks me up more.

Ghost turnip, Fintown, County Donegal, Ireland, c. 1900 (replica), National Museum of Ireland
Frightening face carved into a turnip to place a candle in "In 1943 the National Museum of Ireland received a turnip lantern from a schoolteacher, Rois Ní Braonáin who was teaching near Fintown, Co. Donegal. She stated that it was the type that was always made in that locality around 1900. This plaster-cast model was created and painted by the museum artist, Eileen Barnes. Candles were placed inside the turnips and they were used to frighten people on the night of 31 October. The pumpkin that is prevalent today is an American development of this Irish tradition." https://www.museum.ie/en-IE/Collections-Research/Collection/Top-things-to-see-in-the-Irish-Folklife-Collection/Artefact/Ghost-turnip/b202e8ea-0728-4b3d-b0f1-82660fe45ce9

TFW you paid $1400 to see Beckett’s most famous work without knowing anything about it
One Star Review of Waiting for Godot on Broadway I recently attended Waiting for Godot on Broadway and spent over $1,400 for two Row C seats (103 and 104). I'm a longtime admirer of Broadway productions and even hold a season pass for Shea's Performing Arts Theatre, so I came in with genuine enthusiasm and high expectations. Unfortunately, this show was unlike anything ! have ever experienced —and not in a good way. What I encountered was not the artistry, music, or emotional storytelling I usually associate with Broadway, but instead what felt like an endless cycle of nonsensical conversation between characters who seemed trapped in their own madness. I tried-truly tried-to find meaning, symbolism, or even a thread of emotional resonance. I stayed through the first half hoping the second would offer clarity. But by intermission, it was clear: this was a waste of both time and money. Keanu Reeves is an actor I respect greatly, but I cannot fathom why he would agree to participate in such a disjointed, inaccessible production. His talent was lost in a performance that defied reason rather than provoked insight. To anyone considering attending: unless you are drawn to highly abstract, nearly incomprehensible theater, I strongly caution you against this show. For the average, educated, thoughtful theatergoer, it is far more frustrating than fulfilling. In my opinion, this was the single most disappointing Broadway experience I've ever had - an unfortunate waste of money and, more importantly, of time.

Depuis quelques jours, je pense à une citation d’Asma Mhalla qui a circulé en story Instagram : « Donald Trump est au fascisme ce que Disneyland est au réel ». Un simulacre, au sens baudrillardien.

Quelques mots ici sur cette lecture dangereusement dépolitisante.

Je suis très embêté par cette notion baudrillardienne de "fascisme simulacre", séduisante sur le papier. En exprimant ces réserves, je pense évidemment à Cyberpunk, le dernier essai d’Asma M...

Aujourd'hui les traductrices et les traducteurs sont en grève (si vous n'avez rien remarqué c'est normal, et le PIB ne devrait pas trop en souffrir) pour protester contre l'implantation rampante de l'IA.

It's Don't Argue Inside Your Head With Other People Friday. Today, if you find yourself arguing inside your head w/someone who's not present, or whom it's not safe or not fair for you to argue with, gently move your mind away. Do this as many times as you need.

Built in the 13th century. So that mosque stood for 800 years with every sort of person from every place and every religion in the world passing through Gaza century after century, only for it to be blown up by some shithead loser sitting behind a computer that we probably paid for.

Yes but then again: Jim Crow was a minstrel character, California was named for a mythical island in a hit book, Lenin took the title of his breakthrough pamphlet from a polyamorous romance novel, and the American revolutionaries couldn’t stop quoting and stealing lines from a 1713 play about Cato

We live in the weirdest era. We have shitposting assassins, Discord elections for PM, and anime revolutions.

History books are going to be so strange in a few decades.
Gen Z protestors have chosen next Nepal PM via vote on Discord, what is Discord and how it is used Nepal's anti-corruption protests led by Gen Z activists toppled the KP Sharma Oli government. Now, Gen Z is using the US-based social media app Discord to decide on the country's next leader.
