list of people who i think are secretly bottoms--nooo i swear i don't think being the penetrated partner in sex is humiliating or degrading i swear! I'm not sexist I love women and cutie gay femboi bottoms. haha did i just imply all women are inherently the submissive penetrated partner? oops wellll hahaaha. no see trust me i think its extra funny when manly men bottom because its like the opposite of how it should be! Of course all women don't have to be the penetrated partner--it's hot when girls peg their macho boyfriend and make him your girly little toy--nooo i swear I'm not being homophobic when i say that fucking somebody degrades and dominates them, especially if it's a man's ass!!!--well anyways the list:
spongebob,

#Look at this list of amazing aspirational things
Exactly!
Got a write up on high modernism, or someone else's you would recommend?
I think James C. Scott is the one to coin the term? Where I got it from anyway. You can probably best understand as a) a deep abiding faith capital-P Progress and a teleological view of history and civilization, b) a cult of experts and technocracy, with academic/technical knowledge prized over custom and tradition and 'uneducated' popular opinion and c) a program of using technology and scientific organization to improve the world (which as a necessary precondition requires the world been rationalized and made legible to bureaucratic understanding and scientific optimization.
Though really I use the tag a) with a wildly variable amount of irony depending on what I'm tagging and b) mostly as, like, a vibe.
Uh, think, aesthetically: Brasilia, the Aswan Dam, the Turkestan-Siberian Railway and the Interstate Highway System - overmighty civil services and fordist/state capitalist economics - mass electrification and literacy programs as wholesale national missions - 'towers and flowers' urban design and high speed rail as prestige project - 'measuring the marigolds' and skepticism/demystification as ideological project - land reform but the type that ends up empowering technical experts and state managers as much/more than the peasant farmers - the heroic age of science - the Green Revolution - Better Living Through Chemistry - your first reaction to someone talking about 'the good old days' being infant mortality/forced marriage/smallpox/blood feuds - thinking a world where everything about the world is legible and rationally ordered as an impossible utopia and not a depressive nightmare.

Over the last week I have developed a firm idea of how they SHOULD have done the new phyrexia plot, and also why hazbin hotel has mostly good songs that are assigned and spaced terribly
This road trip has left me with strong opinions about both hazbin hotel and magic the gathering

Actual destination restaurant had a 40 minute wait, so we were tricked into going to a Chinese buffet place with thousands of 4-5 star reviews.
Quite literally every stereotype I might have had about sprawling chain Chinese-American/Canadian buffets in the middle of the suburbs have beem justified.
I have never in my life felt like more of a snobbish out-of-touch downtown cultural elite.

are kitty cats bourgeois?
Loves hunting rare birds
Violence a core part of social relationships
Will spend 16 hours a day simply reclining in decadent luxury
kitty cats are clearly military aristocrats.

I think so much about the food people ate pre-Columbian exchange. Huge parts of cuisine extremely important on both sides of the pond just didn't exist.
You've probably heard a little about what was brought over from the New World, corn, potatoes, cocoa, cassava, peanuts, chili peppers, avocadoes, cranberries, pumpkins, and the like. Imagine cooking without chili! Without potatoes! Modern Indian cuisine contains enormous amounts of potatoes and we just didn't have those for the vast majority of history. The best of the nightshades all on one contiguous hunk of land. Hell, tomatoes! Almost forgot about those.
But we don't often look at what the Old World had. Wheat! Barley! Rice! A profusion of incredible grains, really, the finest poaceae has to offer. Carrots! Tons of rosaceous plants like apples and cherries and pears and peaches and apricots! Grapes! Soy and Bamboo! Okra and watermelon! All these things were simply never found in the Americas. The grains one is the wildest for me, the variety of grains available across Eurasia and Africa was truly astounding.
You know what binds together the food of all cultures across the world? Onions. Onions are fucking everywhere. There's probably onions growing near you right now. Allium Gang Unite.

I have endured what no one on earth has ever done before
I put to my lips the hands of the man who killed my son.

I was making chitchat with the woman who works at the plant nursery and I mentioned that two baby trees I bought the other day aren't doing too well, their leaves are yellowing, maybe I'm watering them too much? what could be behind this phenomenon? and she looked like she was trying to find a gentle way to phrase it but then gave up and just said plainly, "Autumn."
another social interaction that will come back to haunt me at 3am five years from now

funniest kind of alien to meet: a big bearlike species that cultivates a symbiotic population of bugs in their fur. the bugs distribute oils, eat dead skin and hair, and fight off parasitical species. it's like an external immune system for them. they only lose their bugs on death, when the colony flows from the cooling body into the warm fur of the assembled mourners. a bearlian with no bugs, due to fire or frost damage, is in need of immediate transfusion or they will be at risk of terrible infections.
unfortunately humans have no symbiotic bugs in our fur, and our ancient instincts are to remove all bugs from all fur, immediately. a body covered in swarming little pests is deeply horrifying: it's viscerally dangerous to us.
so each of us see one another as disgusting corpses. and our diplomats have to talk to each other across very wide tables.
