I'm not ready to talk about the sci-fi novel I'm writing in too much detail yet, but here's a meme about what it's inspired by without any further context
The maximum amount of money anyone should be able to have is $2,147,483,647, just as God intended
That billionaires tax is for democracy not primarily for revenue.

nothing i can say about these people is crueler than their behavior toward each other
if this was me at a public event mourning my spouse who was violently murdered my kids would either have me committed or never speak to me again

Polar Express deserves a remake, especially now that the very painterly, impressionistic style of the original book is so in vogue among major, American animation houses.

Transition is a form of ultimate total bodily autonomy and these are people who get off on total subjugation, on total power over someone else's body. Opposing transness is a currently socially acceptable way to support pedophilia and rape
i feel like one thing that we should be making abundantly clear from now on is that the majority of anti-trans consent manufacturers are goddamn pedophiles.
are you going to believe what a bunch of pedophiles say about us? what does that say about you?

saying it again: "AI is here to stay" is a vacuous argument that speaks to the vacuousness of its supporters. the simple existence of a technology does not obligate us to use it.
because, as a reminder, nuclear weapons are *also* here to stay. unfortunately. but we've gone eighty years so far.

Bill Clinton is so irrelevant and forgotten that when you say “Clinton” people think of Hillary.Those who remember him do so for moving the party to the right: NAFTA, DOMA, and killing welfare. But apparently he lives rent free in Trump’s mind.
I think Republicans are overestimating liberals' emotional attachment to Bill Clinton.

If even the Final Boss of Dem Uselessness himself is saying trans people should be supported, then no one in the Democratic Party has any excuse whatsoever.
Uh here’s chief Clinton strategist James Carville…
…going long on why and how politicians should support trans people.
What is going on lol

First-of-a-kind study shows encouraging data for trans kids who socially transition
Ninety-four percent of participants in a new study stood firm in their trans identity after five years, and "detransitioning" is rare.
