it fucking kills me how ursula leguin, in writing a story about how people refuse to engage with a narrative unless it contains suffering, inadvertently created one of the most long-lasting shorthands for dystopian society in the modern narrative omelas isn't an ethical conundrum! it isn't a real place, even in the bounds of the story! it's about how the reader refuses to engage with the shining city until the narrator gives up and adds an element of dystopia, and now that dystopian element is all anybody talks about!!!!!

the thesis of videodrome is "if you hit the tipping point of being extremely online then your two options are to either become a fascist or attempt to transcend reality in the hopes of turning into a catgirl" which is fucking wild given that it was made in 1985 q: max renn wouldn't become a catgirl
a: the videodrome signal gave him free GRS and his first instinct was to hide a gun inside. of course he'd be a fucking catgirl

@nonarylame @xoxogossipgita Cis people: I want you to take half an hour and think about your gender. Really think about it, hard. Not because you're possibly trans (though maybe you are, idk), but because it'll lead you to better understand a part of yourself that society lets you leave unexamined @nonarylame @xoxogossipgita Some questions to ponder:
* What do I enjoy about being my gender?
* Why do I identify with my gender?
* What gendered expectations do I put on myself? Do I enjoy those expectations? Why or why not?
* What gendered expectations do I put on others? Why?
