this one world vision
turns us in, to compromise
what good's religion
when it's each other we despise
damn the government
damn their killing
damn their lies

hush
it's okay
dry your eyes
dry your eyes
soulmate, dry your eyes
dry your eyes
soulmate, dry your eyes
'cause soulmates never die

placebo - sleeping with ghosts

people don't talk about it so much because we live in an off kilter world, but The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas is, among many things, a strong meditation on nonaggregationist ethics

Taurek wrote about it in the 70s in a paper, but it's not often someone puts it to you seriously and with love in mind

it's not an easy read (CW death, torture, abuse), but it's an important one that you might resonate with

"Books are friends, which we keep around because they make for good company..In the act of reading, we are in the company of the text and the motions it performs ..In the act of writing, we provide company for someone else as they (eventually, maybe) read our words and take in what we have to say. The point of writing thus, at some level, becomes to provide good company, and the point of writing about what others have written is to become a part of this company of friends."

hi

this is my first #introductions post-- i'm not really as private a person as i might seem :)

it's mostly like it says in my profile: i know plenty of STEM things, i'm queer, and i try to be friendly and loving.

my main deal has been setting up co-op vehicles to try to get my friends+loved ones paid to do things that help us more directly, instead of things that obliquely hurt us. i've managed to get one started in the past sixth months, and i want to have another going by end of this year.

ok sort of proud of this:

"If the ponderous, rigid machinery of state socialism and corporate rulership can both build dams, nuclear reactors, and hospitals, then the flexible, coercion-free dynamics of motivated anarchists will certainly serve. We can be cooperative, we can be syndicalist, we can be communist, we can be social. Anarchists are what they need to be, in the deepest of ways."
