The idea you can just freely walk around spouting deeply oppressive and hateful shit about people over and over again in public forums and not get touched (at least a lil bit!) for popping off at the mouth is typical 2520 moon madness.

we were promised flying cars by 2025 and instead we got cars with built-in tattlers that that track how often we slam our breaks so car manufacturers can share our unsafe driver data with insurance companies to help each other make *more* money. and they still can’t fly.

Journalist, historian, and novelist Pauline Hopkins wrote the science fiction novel "Of One Blood: Or, The Hidden Self" in 1902. She was born in 1859! There's racial passing, ghosts of student's dead enslaved mother, voodoo, séances, an Egyptian expedition where advanced "Negro" society is found.

Sometimes it feels like a lot of people don't think stories are supposed to be interesting but instead an expression of values, and aesthetic pleasure the sensation of having one's values affirmed.

People keep calling obvious fascist acts “distractions” like they’re not having tangible effects on the lives of the targets. Trans healthcare is being targeted. White supremacists are making policy. You think Stephen Miller is sending ICE after people to distract from tax cuts or something?
