"4 day pause" perfectly positioned right around the weekend when most massive pro-Palestine rallies and protests are organised

They're banking on us quieting down.

But as a reminder to all, a few days of pausing the violence is NOT what we advocate for; we demand to cease all forms of violence, cease the genocide, cease the occupation, cease the apartheid system and most importantly seek justice.

A 4 day pause and then what?

What an autistic person says: "How long is it going to take?"

What they mean: "I want to know whether to activate my short term waiting mode where I just wait and do nothing else, or activate my long term waiting mode where I occupy my mind with something else. I fully understand that both are possibilities, and I have no problem whatsoever with either one, but I want more information so I can best adapt to the situation."

What neurotypical people hear: "I am impatient and demand that everything I want happen right now. Please scold me and publicly humiliate me for it."

oh I didn't realize you used to be a huge piece of shit

now this may surprise some of the audience, but the majority of humans have to survive a phase called "being a teenager" and the results are often catastrophic

like 99% of "men and women are soooo different!!!" comedy is literally just describing the experience of not understanding other people. like it's not that women never say what they mean talking to other people is just like that. it can be hard to understand what other people are thinking. bioessentialism really rots the brain

"women will say I'm fine and then not mean it" yeah that's something literally everybody does. is this your first time interacting with another human being my guy

idk what traumatized or mentally ill person needs to hear this but dreams (especially the really disturbing ones you dont want to talk about to anybody) arent some deep peek into your psyche or a sign of your True Desires or whatever theyre quite literally your brain making fruit salad with whatever it can find on the shelf. just putting all that shit in a blender and hitting obliterate. its fine, youre fine, youre not a weirdo for it

Actually forget what I said. This dream is more important than anything

i consider myself pro-degrowth--in that i think amazon same-day delivery and universal car ownership and all-year-round global fruit supply chains are all fundamentally unsustainable and should be abolished--but the way some people talk about it with a christian martyrdom level of fetishization of suffering is just such a dead-end. if you are going to be an eco-socialist you have to make the case that freedom from wage labour and universal housing and the socialization of wealth are going to be worth giving up the unsustainable luxuries of the capitalist economy in the imperial core--'we're going to make your life worse and you should think that's a good thing' is not a political movement with a future.

I love when information revealed at the end of a story recontextualizes something said or done at the beginning. Like yes queen make the story a loop let the story keep developing even though the book is closed and the credits are rolling. The story never ends it just starts over.

[Transcript:

Man with a beard speaks, “People who grew up with money, like, literally look into your eyes and ask you something insane.”

Camera switches to a woman in a green shirt who says, “When I was in college, the guy that sat next to me in one of my business classes sat down next to me one morning and asked me if everything was okay because he had seen me walking on my way to class. He was worried about, like, you know, did my car break down, did I need a ride, very sweet of him. So I got to tell him that, uh, no, I don’t need a ride, but thank you, I live pretty close, and also I don’t have a car. Because it’s Boston, which is a hellscape to drive in, and I am poor. And he kind of laughs, and he’s like ‘yeah, yeah,’ he gets it. Like, driving in Boston is really annoying, having a car is annoying. But he has a loophole, so he wanted to tell me about the loophole, and that was that every morning he would drive his car and he would park it in front of the business school building, in the fire lane. And it would get towed immediately because it’s a fire lane, but it was towed to a luxury car impound lot that was, like, maybe a mile away, and it was only $175 a day. So, what he would do is get it towed every morning to that lot, and then he would call a car to pick him up and take him to the lot to go get it at the end of the day. He just, you know, wanted to share that with me. He’s happy to pick me up in the morning and show me how to do it so that when my dad ships my car to the city for me, that I will have a way to park it. And while that was incredibly kind of him, we are from different planets.”
