in the recent shaun video he talked about Those Who Walk Away From Omelas, where the premise is could you tolerate a utopian society if it meant just a single child had to be left in eternal suffering to maintain it
while I wouldn't in the way it's presented, I would if that child were bill gates or elon musk tbh
like if we have to put billionaires in eternal torment to maintain our society, that's a bonus actually

@mavica_again a lot of the work i've been making in my clay class has came out good! we did a natural pit fire where you basically stick the pots in a bonfire and one of them looks so cool i'm obsessed with it
one of the things I find most frustrating about creativity on the modern internet isn't just the many, often arbitrary, limitations enforced by corporations, but people's willingness or even eagerness to surrender to them
from "seggs" and "unalive" to nudity bans to filtering out queer keywords to llms telling you off for asking about things that are totally normal in fiction, huge swathes of the global human experience and imagination are roadblocked off by random people in far-away offices
"you shouldn't feel bad about not doing anything all day, capitalism is a human construct!!! 😊😊😊💜💜💜" i don't feel bad because i'm not productive in the capitalist sense. i feel bad because i've done nothing but scroll social media all day. being productive for the self regardless of capitalism is mental health too. fuck your toxic positivity
okay it was a dead lead but i'm not really disappointed actually tbh mistakes will happen all the time
alterhuman, queer, disabled, leftist, pagan, witch, maybe autistic. willow or wil, or The Magician if you're feeling fancy. literal reincarnation of a fictional character.
