Please don't move to Hawaii in the PANDEMIC, displacing even more Native Hawaiians like myself, unable to afford 950k+ housing on starvation wages, living on the street, or forced to move away. Don't be a colonizer.

L.J.'s Restless Brain Syndrome

This is why hope is the radical choice, because through hope we choose to look beyond our current self-destructive reality and to dream other possibilities into being. Whiteness is not and never has been the only way to exist, not even for people currently (de)racialized as white. We will and we must move beyond the fantasy of a flat white world that has become a nightmare. We owe it to each other and to the world to dream and live beyond whiteness. We have to hope.

CPU history, erasure of women 

"Sasaki attributes the basic invention to break the calculator chipset into four parts with ROM (4001), RAM (4002), shift registers (4003) and CPU (4004) to an unnamed woman, a software engineering researcher from Nara Women's College, who was present at the meeting. Sasaki then had his first meeting with Robert Noyce from Intel in 1968, and presented the woman's four-division chipset concept to Intel and Busicom."

Not even sidelined, just "unnamed".

Hormones, medical, trans 

I ended up worrying a bunch last night about breast cancer and blood clot risks from hrt and ended up reading a bunch about it and it... turns out the risk is miniscule? Cancer risk is still lower than for cis women. Blood clot risk was previously overestimated because they used an estrogen meant for birth control that *does* increase the risk a lot, but estradiol doesn't really have much of an effect on that?

Anyway that was a huge relief and I thought I'd share. It turns out people *have* been doing more up to date science on trans folks, which was sorely needed.

If the police are telling you how to protest, it’s a pretty safe bet you should do exactly the opposite if you want to be effective.

So can everyone please stop repeating the “outside agitator” and “anarchist hijacker” tropes.

re: Leftism Meta (-) | Fedi Ment 

And guess what, this very same kind of cronyism was exactly what I used to do years ago back when I was toxic, and hung out with toxic people.

Don't make that mistake like I did. - Julayla

Leftism Meta (-) | Fedi Ment 

This is why it's important to let go of the hero worshipping and idolization of leftist figures in social media, that is why it is so important to be an iconoclast, not just to figures of your enemies, but to your allies as well.

Because if you end up idolizing someone, it will be a lot harder to let go of them when they end up doing something absolutely vile. And your integrity, morals and principles vanish in a puff of smoke, leaving behind the stench of cronyism in its wake.

The strength of leftism doesn't lie in its unity, (In fact that is a tankie red flag.) it lies in our ability to keep each other honest. If we can't even do that, then we'd be no better than the AltRight. Because this kind of cronyism, the refusal to indict your own because "they contributed a lot to us" is exactly what fascists and other oppressive orgs are known to do.

This was what made the Elekk/Monads/Myass cronyism and self-gratifying circular self-affirmation so toxic; Anyone who tried to hold them accountable became a potential target for harassment, gaslighting and whisper campaigns. We can't let that happen if we're to make a difference in this broken world.

I want to fucking vomit every time liberals rediscover the Swedish military LGBT rainbow propaganda and say shit like “fascists get owned.”

Every national military is fascistic.

packbat is a social construct

The blog post Adam Neely links, "Blues tonality" by Ethan Hein - ethanhein.com/wp/2014/blues-to - goes into a lot of detail on patterns in blues and blues-influenced music, specifically refuting a lot of ungrounded assertions that it's the same harmonic theory as the one taught for 18th century European classical music
