Woke up this morning and decided to give a new social media platform a try lol.
I'm a #CovidConcious #Queer with a long term hyper-fixation on #Comics and #GraphicNovels (check out my linktree for reviews)
I'm also a #Millennial thinking about how we can survive #ClimateChange together :)

So I'm slowly trying to de-google - preferably using products outside of the usa etc. But I'm a bit disheartened that all the search engine alternatives I see recommended still are integrating ai. Any recs for ai free search?

A lot of people are explaining what Trump can and cannot do, based on the law and Constitution. The reality of the situation is that we're about to find out what legal walls and safeguards will hold and which will crumble. Right now, we don't fucking know.

Tend to keep my hot takes to myself but here we go... I am a bit tired of people misusing the concept of death of the author to basically say worship the art and not the artist. But just like the creators, no piece of media should be put on a pedestal.

I'm seeing some "Octavia knew" stuff re: the fires, and tbh, that makes me uncomfortable. The fires in The Parable of the Sower were set by hordes of drug-addled pyromaniacs. Octavia Butler had a lot of important insights, but in this era of scapegoating, let's be careful about our comparisons.
