MFW I #MagnaTolvan get a HoloCall from #DoctorAphra and I *think* it’s going to be about meeting up today, the 10th anniversary of Chelli’s 1st appearance!

But then it turns out to be #Aphra asking me to rescue her — AGAIN. Sloppy!

Happy birthday, Doctor Aphra! 🎂

It's class war. Open, indiscriminately violent class war. It's colonialism, imperialism, capitalism, fascism claiming the lives of innumerable people, children, just to acquire some land, some oil and gas, to get more imaginary money for their imaginary hierarchy games while the world burns.

my most woke belief is that most of the world's suffering stems from systems of inequity enforced with violence at the sadistic behest of an incurious & frightened elite; liberal democratic governments believe their responsibility is to provide them with labourers, and we can change it all today.

I know people get all weepy about doing socialism through election and peaceful mechanisms and in some scenarios that *may* work (willing to hold out judgment on the Bolivarian revolutions long term), but for me the SPD and Allende make stunning arguments about why it won't.

Some of these people are lawyers; the rest are intimately (phrasing) familiar with courtrooms and lawyers in their professional lives. They didn't put this stuff in writing because they're naive or ignorant; they did it because they have no fear of consequences. None at all.

Fascism is a long US tradition that we are morally enjoined to end.

I know everyone uses social media differently. But during this time of rising fascism, if you have a platform, I'd ask that you pick at least one thing you care about & understand & share practical ways your followers can make a difference in fighting for it. If there ever was a time, this is it.

TBT to shenanigans on Endor w Doctor Aphra, post Rebel victory—a win in which I surely played a crucial part even if we haven’t seen how (yet)

Here I simulate stormtrooper surprise at being caught between giant tree trunks—as “pretend” scenarios are the only time I‘d be caught tactically unawares!

Post someone who looks great in a hat

I mean, there’s a reason I lamented its loss in the latest Aphra series / Chaos Agent. I was a fan of that silly aviator cap from the start!

Worth a read, very short and clearly explains the “natural” and “everlasting” conceptions of capitalism to be pure bullshit

The US president is a proven, industrious pedophile but thanks to the system we have there’s a very good chance nothing of consequence happens to him.

It is an obvious fact that capitalism will end at some point.

It continues to confuse me that people don’t want to advocate for an equitable economic organization of society as the next form our economy takes.

(Not really dont tell me why Im aware of ideology propaganda and false consciousness)

Important to understand the Epstein stuff and the fascism and the corruption are, in a lot of ways, really all the same story from different angles: powerful men who can and do abuse vulnerable people around them because they can, and because systems of elite accountability catastrophically failed

New York Times social media guidelines prohibit expression suggesting partiality on things like ICE, execution of foreigners in fishing boats, or whether law is a thing.

However, tipping off notorious serial pedophiles about other reporters is absolutely fine.
Fall 2017: Then-NYT reporter literally warning Epstein that someone is "digging around again."

Another revelation from all of these emails is that many of the richest and most powerful people in the country absolutely cannot write. Helps explain their sweaty embrace of LLMs.

Am once again envious of those who got to see lower latitude aurorae last night 🥲
when new yorkers all experience something on social media it's like a rat that got ahold of a brazil nut. when upper midwesterners all experience something on social media it's a breathtaking dance of radiant light and color across the entire night sky
