Empress of Mars: Undisputed @zebratron2084@awoo.space

(The Eyrie, rather. NOT a Freudian slip, I promise, even if it is full of Young Alien Types... <3 )

I'm not sure WHAT exact mood was represented by the above, but I am sure feeling a lot of it this morning.

Weekend was pretty good, though. Got a ton of work done for the Phoenix webstore, got to hang out with the Eerie, got feesh at Toyoda Sushi with @neonNeptunian

I am just not equipped to deal with reality this morning, and judging by the dreams I had last night, fantasy doesn't have anything better to offer.

Guess that just leaves work and sitcoms.

This is probably closer to my actual mood this morning. #StillFierce #IfIFitsYouGoesWayK #AbuDhabiBound

I think that's the worst I've ever blown a Navigation roll that hasn't wound up with me in another U.S. state. Sorry again, @neonNeptunian!

In totally related news, can someone recommend a really good, cheap mobile data plan? I think it's time to enter the 21st century and get a proper cell phone so I don't waste anyone's time like this again.

Hokay, folks, I need to feel really intelligent again somehow, so I think I'm gonna stare at Parallax until my forehead bleeds. Cheers! <3

I did not make appropriate peer-2-tiger food choice behaviors today. :(

Saaaaaay, y'all at Phoenix wouldn't happen to have the Vol. 3 trade of Gail Simone's Clean Room in stock at the moment, would ya?

I also like how she's coined the term "validist." Can't possibly get ahead as a fanatic until you've got a "-ist" box. Otherwise, you have to carry your ideological opponents around separately, and who the fuck has time for individuality? THIS IS SOCIAL JUSTICE.

Seriously, am I totally misreading this person's timeline, or are they in fact essentially a transwoman who's somehow managed to become a TERF, by basically rewriting the rules to include their own subgroup and exclude everyone else?

I mean, she's outright said it's "not OK" to be anything but her own narrow band on the gender spectrum, so there's no possible way her beliefs can be spun that I'd respect her, but...

I performed a brief magical imprecation in which I beseeched Eris and/or the Great Antler Mother to shrivel @Alda@witches.town's pleasure center like a moldy prune until she learns a few basic lessons about tolerance, gatekeeping, letting jargon replace sense and compassion, and most of all, not drawing the line of who's "real" and who's "not real" just below yourself (like every other goddamned fanatic on the planet).

I feel rather better now.

After having to deal with witches.town Social Justice Slasher this morning, I think I need to take some refuge in deeply problematic media. The OJ Simpson episode of SNL (s03e12 2/25/78) should do nicely.

No CW. You will listen.

If you hate someone and call them invalid purely because of a demographic accident over which they had no control, you are a bigot. This is utterly regardless of any lines of greater social oppression. It is your own personal failing, and you can not excuse it with theoretical hand-waving. Your hatred is not made moral by whether it's on the Social Justice White List. It's hatred based on something innate. It's the roar of the memetic zombie. I will not accept it here.

This person is an idiot. This person was made into an idiot by ideology. This person is what happens when the natural semantic drift imposed by human folly makes its way into a good and noble intent. This person reminds me so fucking much of what happened to Christianity, a religion I used to love dearly, and why I CONSTANTLY try to warn you about the same thing happening to us. I want to roll some Erich Fromm up into a cone and shove it up her nose until it reaches her forebrain.

Get this fucking bigot out of my movement. This, THIS is why I hold myself at arm's length from the hard left. This is why I say young communists playing devil's advocate for North Korea on Masto (YES, I'VE SEEN IT) might not in fact be our friends. This is why I feel like I'm about to be purged by my own "fellow travelers" at every moment. This is why I don't believe FOR A FUCKING SECOND that the queer millennial left doesn't contain its own Robespierres, Stalins, and yes, Trumps.

Dammit, something in one of my recent tweets made me DESPERATELY want a card game based on the Paranoia RPG.

(No, not that one. A GOOD one with modern DBG mechanics. *snootily dons beret, pince-nez, and nasal extender* )

My current mood in culinary form:
