I'm not the biggest fan of his defense of "free speech," but my goodness Cornel West has some points to make here: "Fitting in, in a neoliberal world, is to be well adjusted to injustice."

“Resiliency to me is not a natural thing. I do not think that we were born to be resilient. You are forced to be resilient when you are placed in an environment that is unnatural with manmade suffering—where another actor can alleviate this condition that is forcing you to be resilient to it.
I don’t want to be resilient, I think that we should fix the things that are making us be resilient”

skyrim death
dammit, I can't resurrect Belethorker, or at least I can't figure out how. poor convenient Belethorker. (I use a mod that turns him into a horker, which makes his horrible smarmy dialogue much easier to bear for some reason)
skyrim death
dammit, I think the stupid vampires killed Belethorker. I'm debating resurrecting him and making him immortal; he's just too convenient to offload all the weird stuff I pick up, at least until I've done enough Thieves Guild quests to get fences or gotten my Speech up high enough to sell anything to anyone, both of which will take some time...

Blockchain is beyond parody at this point
Seriously? God game/village sim Rise to Ruins is introducing a new race: anthropomorphic cats who act as merchants and traders. Wait, haven't I seen this somewhere before? Maybe it's just coincidence, let's see what they're called...
