Wanna pre-order Radiant Star and also get it signed (by me)?

www.left-bank.com/book/9780316...
Radiant Star (Hardcover)
An electrifying new space opera of power, politics, and faith, set in the world of the Imperial Radch, Ann Leckie's ground-breaking, Hugo Award-winning science fiction epic. The Temporal Location of the Radiant Star is an inconvenience: A backwater religious site on an unimportant planet soon to be absorbed into the imperial Radch’s own, superior culture.

I’ve been on #bluefin #fedora #linux since May 2024 and fully bought into the #atomic mindset. After weeks on a custom #nix image, I’m wondering if it’s time to flip it around: #NixOS + optional #distrobox/#flatpak. Declarative feels like the next step. After flakes OCI containers feel clunky.

Cover art for a fictional book based on the TV show ALIEN: EARTH entitled "Do Androids Dream of Eccentric Sheep?" features a headshot of the android Kirsh, with a graphic cutout of his forehead that reveals within a sheep with its left eye replaced by a member of species T. Ocellus. The tagline reads, "Think about how the scoprion must fieel… trapped under glass, menaced by giants."

Autistics aren't merely "sensitive" to sound; autistic tendencies also include "expanded access to auditory information, heightened perception to pitch, difficulties dealing with speech in background noise, and taking longer to adapt to auditory environments.":

Can an anthropology of the near be as conceptually complex as an anthropology of the far away? Does the distance required for strangeness need necessarily be geographic?

I have a bad habit of imagining every place I visit in the US before the highways, before the settlers, before the strip malls. It’s always very beautiful & then there’s a heavy grief in my chest.

Here is a decades overdue, very epic, nerdy, 3:33 hours long deep dive into the esoteric Lemurian "Numogram" with the beast himself: Nick Land, clearing up some confusions and of course adding heaps more of it.

Already cult!

Wilhelm Reich’s 1933 book - The Mass Psychology of Fascism - concluded that a key characteristic of fascism is the ability to derive joy from inflicting cruelty.

Called "verocious" in ancient Egypt, the shrew was venerated as a form of Horus in Letopolis. Blind at birth, gained eyesight, able to travel both the light and the dark realms, he took the roles of guiding the Sun god through the underworld and aided in the dead’s regeneration.

They built the concentration camp on an Indian burial ground. A little on the nose but subtlety isn’t really the vibe these days newrepublic.com/article/1975...
The American concentration camp on view Tuesday was erected within the Big Cypress National Preserve, traditional Miccosukee land. The tribe was not consulted, said Betty Osceola, a member and activist who lives a few miles from the camp’s entrance. She was one of hundreds of people protesting on the road outside the camp over the last several days as massive trucks streamed into the site. β€œPeople should be concerned about the secrecy of this,” Osceola told the Fort Myers News-Press. β€œIt’s a big deal. Our ancestors were laid to rest in this area, and they talk about it like it’s a vast wasteland. It’s not.”
