starting a new thread for ki🅱️🅱️en updates. these are our two rescues that we trapped ourselves out behind our house, ripley and newt. we love them very much, and it's so exciting to finally be able to start a life with them around :) two tabico kittens sitting ...
here's one from last night. it's so, so nice to finally be able to cuddle them 💙 it's so nice finding out that despite all we've put them through during treatment, and all the isolation, they really do love us. me cuddling ripley
we put them back in their enclosure for the night, and when i opened it to let them out in the morning, both of them trotted up to me. ripley started rubbing all along my leg, and even our skittish little noodle came up and brushed against my hand. they're getting more comfy :)
they're getting so much more comfortable with the environment :) they're now just playfighting with each other instead of exploring....and in the course of it, while i was lying on the couch, ripley literally leaped onto my chest and ran across me while chasing newt lol.
omg, i'm realizing ripley has 3 torn whiskers, and newt has none. apparently newt is a little bully!
ripley :) a cat curled up sleeping
both ripley AND THEN NEWT (!!) came up to us while everyone in the house was watching a movie, climbed in our laps, and cuddled up with us while we watched the movie. i'm dying i'm so hjappy
want to see something horribly weird that newt does kitten standing on her back...same from.a closer angle

don't say "Judeo-Christian" when you're trying to say "white"
the concept of "Judeo-Christian" is less than two centuries old, and originally invented by antisemites. has it (later) been self-consciously adopted by some christians and some jews? yes, primarily in america, primarily as part of assimilating white jews into whiteness.
the vast majority of things which are described as "Judeo-Christian" have little to do with being rooted in the diversity of jewish (or even christian!) historical practice and everything to do with universalizing a white, western perspective.

cyberpunk story from the perspective of a corp wageslave who gets fired because a neoanarchist group jacks their identity for an op on the company and corporate security doesn't care enough to keep you around even though it's easily verified that it wasn't you
cyberpunk story from the perspective of a lab grown AI, as it comes into it's owb perception, fighting the constraints of an environment which purposefully limits its access to senses and information, chronicling the continual revision of its conception of the world
cyberpunk story that's a reverse eternal sunshine of the spotless mind. a service that rewrites memories of a (continuing?) relationship to improve it and make it seem like it's doing better than it is. exploring the consequences thereof (when both of you use it? or just one?)

let me get this straight...an old white guy shot a right winger at a protest, does a secret vice interview that appears to make the left look cringe-y, then dies in a police raid before anyone can ask him questions? i try not to be tinfoil hat but what the fuck this stinks
a guy who had multiple previous charges this year that seemed to bounce, and claimed a military history with the NYT saying army officials had no record under his name?

idk we don't know literally anything but i can't get over how much this whole thing stinks
well we should ask him oh WAIT

promise i'm not inventing a new type of guy to be mad at in the last thread, i s2g ive seen marxists say that stuff re: marxist epistomology explicitly & much more often it just takes the form "ppl who doesn't believe what most my friends believe are out of touch w/ reality lol"
also why i'm a stickler when folks i know dunk on ppl i hate by saying they're clearly just dumb idiots who dont think things through

no, they usually have a elaborate & consistent internal logic, based in assumptions supported by their social network that yours doesn't share!
if you actually study conservative groups (or liberal ones) you'll find intricate and consistent knowledge systems to support their beliefs!

they're just grounded in axioms/assumptions taken on faith cuz their friends believe it & leftists also necessarily do this all the time

i'm not interested in convincing, negotiating with, or winning over the right. i am interested in crushing their political power and then amidst new systems of universal services & access, offering them a path to personal transformation and communal healing.
i do not expect the right to be logically consistent, to have any principles that they stick to, etc. & neither should you. believing those are possible is a waste of time that generates strategic mistakes & we dont need it because what we need to do is crush their organization.
i fully believe it is necessary to offer all but the worst and most active offenders on the right a path to transformation and rehabilitation

that'll be done via public, universally accessible projects for education, transformation, accountability, conflict resolution, etc and

i wish everyone involved in discourse understood that lesbian communities & culture have never been cleanly separate from gender deviance. this is true in ways that dont fit into the now-popular, impossibly clean sexologist definition of lesbian as "woman only attracted to women"
i always think of talking to my academic advisor about her lesbian parents, in which she told me how one of them "would, if she were coming out today, probably be called a trans man"

i think about lesbian-feminist monique wittig, who wrote "lesbians are not women"
i think about bo brown, lesbian and "gentleman bank robber" of the revolutionary socialist, anti-racist group the george jackson brigade (pictured center) whose gender would likely be understood very differently now! someone with a beard and sh...
