@PaulFerence @aldersprig@tootplanet.space @eryn I'm happy to put it to my followers! I don't know any immediately -- I think all my space queers have families or at least relationships -- but I'm happy to ask around.

Can anyone recommend any good books/games/films/narrative experiences about being queer and alone in space? I could really use that right now.

If you are going to do #nanowrimo, I’d like to follow you here and on @aldersprig

The more robust #writing community we can get together here, the better for all of us.

Socialism, business, etc. 

@Elizafox I'm sympathetic, and yet at the same time it's hard not to think some times that a lot of small businesses exist that, had the system we wanted existed in the first place, would simply have never come into being because the numbers didn't work out. It's hard to know how to address those cases, but whatever the answer is, empathy for the change in circumstances must be part of it.

@Canageek@cybre.space @DialMforMara @Canageek In my novel, Beautiful World, there's a part where a bunch of digital sentiences and a few uploads get caught in a virtual world suffering an out-of-memory crash. =>.>= The mention of the glitching-out reminded me of that sequence.

Narrative Analysis

It's okay to enjoy problematic material, but it's important to understand why it's problematic. It's not enough to just to say "it's flawed." It's got some pretty serious problems that can't easily be glossed over.

SPEAKING OF GUMROAD'S 24HR PUERTO RICO DONATE-A-THON: now would be a great time to nab my Chessmaster Guide zines! Three BEEFY color pdfs full of TOTAL DRIVEL about power animals, cryptids and the Tarot, illustrated by a cavalcade of fantastic artists!

@DialMforMara @Canageek "She opened her mouth, but only modem-connect squeals came out. Blue and white voxels dropped from the corners of her eyes, and her hair went staticky, Bezier handles jutting out in all directions."

Magic 

This is a long shot, but I'm going to ask anyway. Is there anyone here who both knows anything about Thelema and happens to be around the Seattle area? I have... questions.

@irisjaycomics I have, but novels get even less engagement than comics these days.

@BigFatFae @signalstation@witches.town The nice thing about being good at words is that, occasionally, I can stick one into the meat and get back something resembling what I expect. Self-programming is harder than Javascript, though.

@jakebe None immediately; the lsat time I looked into Esperanto seriously, it was in college, which was twenty years ago.

@jakebe If you do, let me know. Mi pratikis min Esperanton antaux.

Magic, Bodies 

Filtration of gold. Fixation of silver. Digestion of iron. I can sculpt myself as I see fit. I am the stock, and the hammer.

I got my Qsymia prescription refilled today. Tomorrow I resume the work. I was down fifty kilos at the end of the year, when I declared victory and went off the meds. Then Winter came, and all that came with it this year, and twenty of those kilos found me again. No more.
