And what is it we just talked about in book club?? THIS.

[tartrazeen]

@creatingblackcharacters hey, which book was it? I know Medical Apartheid is the one coming up, but I can't find the one you're all currently on

[creatingblackcharacters]

If it was April 22nd, that book was Mediocre by Ijeoma Oluo. We're on Medical Apartheid currently, actually. Just started today.

You know, one of the most shameful consequences of scifi/game authors not knowing shit is cyberpsychosis, or Essence, or whatever in-universe asspull for a mechanical limiter on how much cyberware you can cram into a character sheet.

There is an easy excuse in real life! You may not be able to get both a pacemaker and a DBS device because they're both pieces of sensitive equipment that could theoretically interfere with each other, and nobody engineered them not to. Trivially you can extrapolate this to all cybernetics. If your various augs weren't Specifically designed not to mess with each other (and of course the various megacorps might take things a step further, making their shit actively hostile to mix-and-matching), you might have problems; and obviously, the more pieces of hardware you've patchworked yourself with, the worse things get. You'd have to be one real crazy motherfucker to tell a back-alley doctor to load you up with whatever they've got.

It's more grounded and more realistic and less shitty and it actively enhances the atmosphere of cyberpunk in a way that "losing your humanity" does not. we are missing out on much because none of these writers know anything about how medtech works

This was too good to leave in the tags.

i understand why the ‘grizzled loner who slowly melts & improves their outlook on life when forced to take care of a kid’ trope is a male exclusive role, bc the optics of a grizzled loner woman healing by becoming a mother are maybe not so good, but every time i think abt a hypothetical female version of that trope i black out instantly. could we maybe just do it one time and all agree to be cool about it

yknow its interesting how something can impact one demographic in a completely different way than everyone else. in the exorcist when the demon starts speaking in greek, to most people its creepy. but if youre greek and you suddenly start hearing the demon speak perfect fucking greek its genuinely the biggest scare of the movie. you just do not expect to ever hear your language in american movies so it catches you so badly off guard, it feels like the movie is talking directly to you

[liquidstar]

the first time my dad saw it, it was with his american friends. and when she started speaking greek he turned to one of them and was like "re malaka did you hear that in english?"

if your animal is lying on the floor, furniture etc, it’s important to take a picture of them. then, if they move or shift in any way, it’s important to take another picture. with this technique, you can take many pictures of your animal

when u touch an unaware cat and they make that small surprised sound reblog if u agree

a factoid is a type of linguistic parasite that attaches itself onto a fact and distorts it, making it more interesting and novel, so that it proliferates through culture and lays a collective egg in everyone's brain

[chayputnyan]

see ? as of writing this post laid eggs in 56 innocent scrollers' minds solely because i tweaked the definition of what a factoid is into something fascinating. if i had just told the truth, that a factoid is an obscure 4tran term for a girl who says a lot of facts, it would colonised the psyche of far fewer victims
