Thank you, god that original one was an awful read.
I’m sorry you’re going through that, man, that’s awful.
I’ll do my best, yes.
Good luck, everyone. I genuinely hope you make it through as okay as you can.
I love Zowie mice because their shapes are incredible and they’re built like tanks. One of mine is 15 years old and I still use it for work.
The same hallway for 75% of the shots.
I tend to believe people don’t really change but they do tend to show their true colors eventually.
A drunk action is a sober thought.
Congratulations on your positive change :)
I’m going to go retch in the bathroom for awhile.
I’m curious what Con voters will tell themselves after we lose this. And then whatever they take after that. What do they think, internally? Is it enough for them that people they’ve never met suffer, or do they require it to be specific people?
Good luck everyone, I am starting to feel a very real fear.
“I just reread The Left Hand Of Darkness last month, and it’s such a great book.”
It was my introduction to her writing, and wow what a fucking book. I read it in two days, I couldn’t put it down.
Not because he’s incoherent–he has been for years–it’s because he’s not popular.
Well, I recently lost, like, 50% of my credibility as an intellectual as I stopped smoking.
Hey, congrats!
I feel like a certain poster here is conveniently and transparently overlooking the word “DEVELOPING” in the title.
I notice the wikipedia article is still un-edited, too. Put your money where your mouth is if you’re so confident.
No sci-fi wasn’t an official thing, yet the title of this is ‘were developing the Afro-Futurism/Black Sci-Fi genre…’
I’d say a fictional story about slaves successfully rebelling and taking over a country, narrated by a scientist, who does science things, counts.
It is ridiculous how much hair-splitting is done when it’s Black culture, and I’m quite embarrassed by the attempt to claim entire wikipedia sections are ‘wrong’ like this.
(Not saying you’re saying that, I understand we’re on the same page.)
So looking up the Blake story it’s not really sci-fi at all?
You should edit the wikipedia entry then, because it disagrees with you.
"Samuel R. Delany described it as "about as close to an SF-style alternate history novel as you can get.
Further, while it incorporates elements of the fugitive slave narrative, Blake’s narrator is also a scientist, whose focus on data collection and research stand in repudiation of the racial science of the day.[10] In fact, this reflects one of Delany’s major themes: that Africa and its contributions to science and math were foundational to the Western world.[12]"
This also applies to their misogyny. You may be the poorest of the poor and white, but you’re a man, so you’re better than all women.
