Like idk it's really hard to separate the art from the artist when the artist is a racist pedophile and the art is about...being a racist pedophile.

One of many 2019 moods is constantly thinking about how things I enjoyed as a teenager were made by legit horrible people with legit horrible themes baked in as subtext, or straight-up text

Today's gender is the smell of five a.m. just before it starts to snow.

i have a lot of admiration for the sheer bravery and/or ignorance it takes to create a work of public art

"Your fingerprints are not secret & as a result, they are bad authentication tokens because they are easy to clone and hard to revoke. It's like issuing you a password at birth & then never letting you change it. It's an incredibly bad idea from a security perspective." @doctorow@twitter.com twitter.com/JosephSteinberg/st

@brightneedle There's a whole thing about science as a process having to constantly throw out bad science to get into there, which they don't understand or are being deliberately obtuse about as cover for their prejudices. They love to use obviously bad science to launder bias and bad politics.

I'm feeling mildly triggered because some tourists touched me suddenly from behind, to get my attention.

It was fucking pointless anyway, because I heard the cashier, they just thought I wasn't moving fast enough or something.

I heard them worriedly whispering, "He said, 'Don't touch me!'" amongst themselves like I was the rude one to say anything...like, keep your hands off strangers, fucko. Jesus.

And when strangers in the city switch from shouting rudely at me in English to shouting rudely at me in Spanish, because I can't be deliberately ignoring them.

It must be because I don't understand what they're saying!

When people stare at me and I'm not sure if it's because they can't figure out my gender, my race, or why anyone would go outside looking like that.

Growing up, I thought mambo was corny old people music, but it? Actually kind of rules? It's just that I got my knowledge about it from gross white people who liked boring, bad things.

I have never, ever wanted to not inform someone that they need to rethink their font choice more than right now -Alice

This iteration of Atari should just say fuck it and become a fashion company.

And they should, specifically, be a fashion company that make street clothes that require batteries.

Bluetooth booty shorts, baby.

I want to build a hacker deck so I can walk around in public with it while wearing my black hoody and an Atari speaker hat

"ug this cartoon is always going off model, its like theyre not even trying"

i believe the medium you want is live action film, not cartoons.

@garfiald the word "creator" is itself a bourgeois construction, meant to separate the ones who create from the ones who consume. if you're not born a creator, you can't create, and this is partially what enables corporate media to be so successful. they are in on the joke.

at least in my mind, readers and writers are closer to technicians -- practicing τέχνη -- making works of art from their labor. normalizing it as a type of activity rather than a "personality type" is crucial to empowering people to make more art.

you can't talk "punching terfs" antifa talk if you think screenshotting is a step too far when dealing with people calling for genocide
