Got possessed in the middle of my work shift.
My least favorite things about anti- UBI discourse is always the techbros whining that "nobody is going to work anymore! People will just watch Netflix all day!" and I have 2 responses:
1) Who the fuck cares. Who the fuck cares what people do with their time! That's kind of the fucking point!
2) People aren't going to stop laboring. Housework (look, it's right there in the word!) will still need to be done. So will maintenance on our homes and personal spaces. Children will still need carers, as will the elderly and disabled. There are millions of examples of ~work~ that we do all the time, uncompensated, that won't suddenly stop because we aren't forced to sell our labor to provide corporation's profits.
I'm not surprised that what is traditionally women's work is invisible to these dipshits, but it never fails to anger me.
Anyway. Join the IWW.
Field studies have been conducted in several countries now, and the result is always the same - people will just flop about for a couple of months to recover from the burnout most people who have a job live with, and then they look for something to do. Some get a job with reduced hours, and some start doing charitable stuff like volunteering in soup kitchens and teaching others to do whatever their particular skill is. They socialize more, they are happier, and on average, people will work more, not less.
But the thing is, employers suddenly have to think about how to make their jobs appealing enough for someone to come and do them! It's hard to find someone to work for you for long hours under horrible conditions, if they can just choose not to; which shows you how voluntary our current system actually is.
🎶People won't stop working! If so, fuck it!🎵
Anyone who truly stops working is probably sufficiently disabled that they shouldn't have been working to begin with. Someone who sits down and does the math and decides that they can live off of whatever they get from UBI rather than try to hold down a job because their autism or chronic pain or whatever is bad enough, they probably were not especially productive in whatever job they were being forced to do anyway, and it's cruel that we were making them work to live in the first place.
I got the game and now I get to feed my miis cigarettes too. >:)

Insane what a 5% wealth tax on the country’s 1,000 billionaires could do
The fact that you can get $4.4 TRILLION dollars from taxing these wankers 5% more tells you that they have too much money.
Just saw a post about how it’s impossible to objectify or disrespect characters, because they ARE objects, not real people. This is true.
I have several mutuals who regularly talk about interrogating how you’re writing black or Jewish characters, because it’s very easy to perpetuate stereotypes. Even if the characteristics you’re assigning to them are neutral, if you ONLY ever give those characteristics to guys with certain backgrounds it … implies something. This is true.
I see a lot of posts about how fantasizing about an idea doesn’t mean you want to act it out in real life. Reading or writing about a character being tortured, or cheating on someone, doesn’t mean you want to hurt real people. This is true.
Almost daily I see another trans person laughing about old things they wrote before transitioning where they said ‘caring about this gendered topic doesn’t mean I’m that gender!’ I see posts about how representation matters, and about how people discover themselves through fiction. This is true.
There’s a post going around about how when you’re talking to someone suicidal, it is important to say the word, rather than use euphemisms. If words are too taboo to use, people suffer silently, unable to talk about their experiences. This is true.
There’s also research that shows that reading the detailed description of a suicide can entice other people to copy it, and so it’s better not to focus on it too much. This is true.

Stories aren’t reality. Stories have power. People explore things through fiction - things they want, things they fear, things that confuse them, things that they care about and want to share with others. What you read says SOMETHING about you, but it’s often difficult to figure out what that something is for a specific person. What you write affects how those who read it will see the world, but you are not responsible for their reactions.
…
You can’t objectify a character. If only your poor characters are violent and/or hypersexualized, people who read your writing may feel objectified. Writing a character avoiding sex as much as possible doesn’t mean you hate sex. If you find yourself writing a lot of characters that avoid sex, thinking about asexuality and you in the same thought might prove helpful.
People can write/read about bondage because they like being tied up, because they’re terrified of being trapped, because they’re overworked and want to imagine being forced to take a break, because they like being in control, because they really like people looking at them, because someone they love is taking dangerous risks and they don’t know how to stop them, because they’re curious why anyone would like bondage and want to explore, or a thousand other reasons.
…
Of COURSE people are going to find this stuff confusing! Everything overlaps!

I've already said that my number one piece of writing advice is to read.
But my number two piece of advice is this: be deliberate.
Honestly this would fix so many pieces of bad writing advice. Don't forbid people from doing something, tell them to be conscious and deliberate about it. This could help stop people from falling into common mistakes without limiting their creativity. Black and white imperatives may stop a few annoying beginner habits, but ultimately they will restrict artistic expression.
Instead of "don't use epithets": "Know the effect epithets have and be deliberate about using them." Because yes, beginners often misuse them, but they can be useful when a character's name isn't known or when you want to reduce them to a particular trait they have.
Instead of "don't use 'said'" or "just use 'said'": "Be deliberate about your use of dialogue tags." Because sometimes you'll want "said" which fades into the background nicely, but sometimes you will need a more descriptive alternative to convey what a character is doing.
Instead of "don't use passive voice": "Be deliberate about when you use passive voice." Because using it when it's not needed can detract from your writing, but sometimes it can be useful to change the emphasis of a sentence or to portray a particular state of mind.
Instead of blindly following or ignorantly neglecting the rules of writing, familiarize yourself with them and their consequences so you can choose when and if breaking them would serve what you're trying to get across.
Your writing is yours. Take control of it.
It probably sounds like I'm preaching to the choir here because most of my mutuals are already great writers. But I'm hoping this will make it to the right people.
I like this advice. "you can do what you want, just do it with intention" applies to a lot of things.
happy pride month for it/its users, polyamorous people, xenogenders, non-transitioning trans people, and other "weird" identities. btw
Whenever I hear someone say "the woke mob" I have to stop myself from laughing because even today all I can think of is this fucking tweet
Happy Pride to the Woke Mob
