“The death of truth is the ultimate victory of evil. When truth leaves us, when we let it slip away, when it’s ripped from our hands, we become vulnerable to the appetite of whatever monster screams the loudest.”

Mon Mothma, future leader of the Rebel Alliance. #Andor #StarWars #DisneyPlus

On mainstream coverage of #Andor & other art meeting this American moment: America’s fascism is not occasional—calling it out can’t be occasional. Especially in mainstream spaces. Blast away at it like you blasted away at Biden's age. Don't think because you mentioned it once you shouldn't again

This series finale is very black mirror

The Heart Nebula

it’s such a beautiful thing that we as humans can see things like this in space thanks to machines we made on earth

I feel mislead by all dystopian literature. It's supposed to be a powerful authoritarian government that lords over a cowering population, and and we just need need a few brave acts of heroism to give the people the courage to rise up.

Instead it's just half the country being dumb and mean.

Why Star Wars is relevant to our lives...

the actual best thing you can do for your mental health the next 4 years is make it a point to not wake up everyday and google the president to see what shit he did while you were asleep. Stay engaged, stay aware stay alert but don't do this, it will not only not help it'll make you feel worse daily

Bluesky culture is this:

What has helped me is reorienting my focus to local—news, shopping, events—a few years ago.

Keeps relationships close and meaningful.

Less instinct for (and invitation to) constant combat.

More room for curiosity.

Fundamentally, this approach has made me both happier and more effective.
