Who would have thought that the real distopia will be a world where information can be delivered with the click of a button and everyone are able to publish what they please, only noone will actually pay attention to any of that and instead everyone will be thinking and living in the most backwards fashion imaginable, telling each other the same myths, they did a couple of thousand year ago and suffocating each voice which doesn't fit their view.
TIL Strava heatmaps help you find popular bike routes close to your city.
Don't try to impress others - they don't care about you (or anything that you can do).
I am still being blown by how cool it is that hashtag #wittgenstein is a thing here.

How do we stop the culture of having to explain your trauma or condition in order to have accommodations made or boundaries respected? Bc it is trash.
Okay, since this is a recurring question (which I should have expected), I've updated sunbeam.city's about page with a link to a short description of what #solarpunk actually is, taking on board suggestions from the Fediverse:
@joshsharp The idea seems even clearer to me once I slept on it - most *countries* (at least capitalist ones) are ruled in a democratic fashion, but most *corporations* are actually dictatorships where most people are depraved of any rights.
Some advice
Does there exist an alternative to capitalism where what to do with the profit gets decided by members of the organization in an referendum-like procedure?
Most people who are saying "No" to equal marriages are misinterpreting the question - they think that LGBT people are asking for their *approval* for having a relationship and a family.
The moment they realize that it is about whether an existing union can be legalized or not, the argument will be resolved.

You can read almost a whole book for free on the internet, do this, its for free! It's a sci-fi crime novel, which is an interesting concept. Its also not long, so you can read in one sitting.
Very old Shirt
i didn’t know how to tell people about this so
i stopped on the side of the road on my way home, sat down under a random tree, tore a page out of my sketchbook, and stayed there for an hour making this
Amazing how people who are self-described "brutally honest" never seem to give out brutal complements or be brutally vulnerable.
They can't just be like "Hey @KitRedgrave that skirt looks motherfucking fabulous on you and if you don't like it, tough shit." or "Jesus Christ I am dying of nerves right now at this interview. Just telling it like it is, bruh."
Looking at #artvsartist and wondering whether there are artists who would want to illustrate my film-noir styled sci-fi story.

This piece has some interesting ideas, although the logic is flawed.

About the same time as Einstein published his theory Russel and #wittgenstein saw that a theory is just a possible explanation of a phenomena and not a logical basis for it.
Reading through it, makes it apparent for me that while he thinks that he is searching for the ultimate theory he is ultimately just chasing his own tail.
