I knew I was getting close to Textile City. I could see their monument, a colossal weaving device, looming in the distance.

Obviously the government should not make porn, because they would be really bad at it, but they SHOULD fund production companies that produce high-quality ethically made porn that is free to the public, PBS-style.

#and then other porn companies would have to compete with that #thereby raising the standards for eg worker pay (tags op's)

after a couple hours chopping dried sea urchins into tiny pieces with a razor blade you start referring to the razor blade as yourself in your thoughts. a little while afterwards you'll inevitably think something along the lines of "i'm getting a bit dull, i'm going to have to throw myself out & get myself a new self" at which point your internal monologue has pretty much returned to baseline

This happens with mobility aids too. I bump into shit with my forearm crutches and say "ow" before I realize those are not, in fact, More Legs. Then when I get up and try to walk without them for a second there's a moment of feeling like a dog walking upright

I suffer from something that can only be described as "grim postmonitions;" upon succeeding at a dangerous task, such as walking up an icy set of slate stairs, my mind flashes with all the ways it could have gone wrong, e.g. slipping and cracking my skull on the masonry. I become inordinately distressed at these visions, as if they are distinct, imminent threats, despite the danger having already passed

It's very frustrating watching people make the "people should be compensated for their labour, so you shouldn't pirate things/should buy from my etsy" argument over and over again as if it'll somehow remove the difference between labour you did to make a product to sell for yourself and the labour you did for someone else in exchange for a wage.

One of these is you selling your labour to someone, which you wouldn't do if you weren't compensated, and the other is you putting labour into making something and hoping you'll be able to sell it at some point, with no guarantee that you actually will.

It's not a labour rights issue for someone to not buy the thing you made, it is a labour rights issue for someone to not pay you for the work they hired you to do.

These are fundamentally different things, and if you insist you're being exploited because people won't buy your things you indeed going to be accused of being ignorant and entitled.

(Incidentally many authors for example actually effectively are in the situation where they're being paid to make something for someone who will then go and reap all the profits from it and might even get the intellectual rights to it. But still direct their ire at people not buying stuff/unable to buy stuff rather than the people not paying them.)
