Geertgen tot Sint Jans, Saint John the Baptist (c. 1490)

So long as we’re abandoning the cult of the individual hero, we also need to abandon the cult of the individual villain. I hope that Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin, and Elon Musk have all confirmed that the wicked chessmaster archetype who’s always six moves ahead of everyone else is just as much of a fiction as the lone hero who can repair the world through rugged determination. It’s all just PR.

Saw a post that pissed me off but OP has me blocked for some reason so I’ll just make a new one: Assisted Suicide (“MAiD”) should never be legal and will always lead to racist, ableist, ageist, classist, and eugenic applications. It is contrary to the purpose of medicine and ethics of the medical profession for a doctor to deliberately end a human life and against the most basic principles of universal human morality to recommend, let alone facilitate the suicide of anyone, especially the sick, the injured, the poor, and the disabled. Life is precious.
