Okay y'all, if I immensely appreciated Debt: the First 5000 Years, what other pieces of modern anarchist lit should I look into?
Or: I'm already more or less on-board with the basic principles of anarchism and I'm really hungry for serious in-depth analysis applying anarchist principles to complex social structures.
Of particular value would be anything on alternatives to police/prisons, or discussion of anarchist approaches to structuring of large groups.
(also I need to ever practice writing fiction so I could do it my own damn self)
Writing prompt, because I really want to see this story: What if technological meddling in our emotional and thought processes allowed us to become more empathetic and emotionally communicative and fostered more meaningful relationships between people?
Me: Okay, so the play we're going to this evening looks like it might be yet another "psychiatric medicine turns people into robots" story, but I'm optimistic about it being more interesting than that.
Play: "Psych medicine turns people into robots!!"
Me: deep sighing
Also, is weather being predicted by neural networks yet, or are we still mostly using physical models?
IDK, it probably just feels weird to me because I'm a determinist.
Just me, or is assigning predictive probabilities to one-time events kind of philosophically dubious?
e.g. I'm not sure "There's a 35% chance of rain on tuesday" actually has meaning. "35% of simulations have rain on tuesday" makes a lot more sense to me.

Also, because I know not everyone is in Facespace and, thus, does not have access to the phenomenon known as Labourwave, I give you perhaps the greatest piece of art to come from the movement.

dating sim idea
DUNGEON DADDIES:
A gay dating game where you play a party of monsters who dress up in leather and explore dungeons filled with evil monsters
Make relationships with your friends! Have one-night stands with your enemies! Get rich in more meaningful ways than gold out of murder!
Hah well I tried playing Localhost and got too upset to continue after five minutes.

Remember: the links in your toots to images you upload are there for a reason. If you delete them the image sticks around on YOUR instance, but if for some reason the image doesn't federate then your readers just get a black rectangle.
fleeting thought: I'm glad I'm in a social space where people know what I mean when I use the word "liberals".

If you like to read and are a fan of urban fantasy and horror, maybe try out the game I've been working on for the past few months? My team and I worked real hard on it.
I just accidentally bit one of my spiro tabs in half and auuuugh it tastes so foul.
Right now I'm drinking a lapsang, which is a black tea that's been smoked. It tastes like campfire!
Okay y'all, tea time!
If your tea is bitter you're oversteeping it. Teas are meant to be used with a specific(ish) water temperature and steep time.
Five minutes as 212F is great for a lot of black teas, but will ruin a green tea. A lot of green teas do better at like, 180F and 1-2 minutes of steep. The packaging should have directions somewhere on it!
A nice electric kettle can dial a specific water temperature target. Lacking that, let it cool a bit if the water was boiling.

"madness" as a mechanic in games sucks. it represents something that the designer does not understand, not something that _no_ human can understand. it represents nothing because the designer didn't want to bother researching it.
just ask anybody who's experienced psychosis, chronic dissociation, etc. they will probably be able to explain to you very well what it's like. there is not a point where, oops, suddenly you're permanently and irrevocably "mad" and can't _ever_ use reason again
I very much want to talk about the ending with anyone else who has finished it.
Goshhhhh I just finished Pyre and I'm blown away.
