Just a bored girl rebloging random stuff.

Literally just that. Been here for a long time, no ideia how to run a cool or successful blog. Also quite introverted, even on the internet. This has basically became a kpop blog.

And you know what? Even if the guy with all the money should change his heart *right this minute* and donate billions to a cause as good as world hunger:

...Nonetheless, whether he does or not... he will still die, like all the rest of us, regardless of who may be at his bedside, alone in his head: alone. By himself. No one there to mitigate the pain, to be telling him how important he is, to make what's happening okay in any way whatsoever. He will cross the bar alone. And there is nothing he can do to stop it.

Nothing he can do with the science we have in this day and age will change that. Nothing invented in the next twenty, thirty, *fifty* years, will change that.

Is he a schmuck? Yes. Is he vastly wealthy and powerful (in the in-this-life mode) beyond the dreams of almost all of us? Yeah, sure!

Will it avail him at the moment when, eventually, beyond any ability of his or those he's paid to keep it running, his breath stops? NOPE.

...The comfort associated with this may be a bit on the chilly side. But (leaving aside folks' personal beliefs about what happens on the far side of the Last Breath) all his personal bullshit in the physical world will swiftly come to nothing.

Let's wait our time. I may not see it: but some of you will, and will be able to say, "Well THAT's over, finally."

(sigh)

Okay, that's my annoyance for the day. ...And now who wants some tea?

Boyfriend: wait but I thought you could change from alpha to omega? Like you get hit with a pheromone and bam become that and you fuck, but the rest of the time you’re androgynous

Me: … I think you have confused omegaverse with the seminal piece of science fiction literature The Left Hand of Darkness by Ursula K Le Guin

I don’t like the U.S. military or their recruitment tactics but I feel very uncomfortable pretending that I’m morally superior to people who join, given the privileges I’ve had. Like am I supposed to pretend that my white ass who’s had six years of higher education paid for by parents who have always made well into six figures am an anti-imperialist queen meanwhile the students who I have worked with who are first and second gen immigrants of color are the greatest evils in the United States? I guess privilege is the experience of keeping your hands clean

— July 9, 1912 / Franz Kafka diaries

[dailykafka]

Note: This entry was censored in the first edition of the diaries, Max Brod changed it to “Two handsome Swedish boys with long legs.”

"Perhaps Brod’s elision of passages that could be read as homoerotic has ultimately drawn more attention to them than they otherwise would have received—still, this very elision suggests that these passages threatened the image of Kafka that Brod was striving to construct." — from translator's preface

We're at the "JK Rowling is personally funding litigation to try and destroy AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL" stage of rabid UK terf brain.

Screenshot via Alejandra Caraballo @esqueer.net on bluesky

Tldr Amnesty International, global human rights organisation, published a report called 'A growing threat: the anti-rights movement in the UK'. In it is detailed, amongst others, a whole bunch of transphobic groups and organisations, including Beira's Place, JK Rowling's trans exclusionary sexual violence support service. JK Rowling threw a shit fit and got Amnesty to take the report down by threatening libel. This was obviously not enough, because you can't appease a fascist, so now she's going to bankroll a bunch of lawsuits anyway through the JK Rowling Women's Fund.*

You can read an archived version of the report here, please save it and share it.

*Not so friendly reminder there is no way to engage in the wizard books without enabling this shit.
