we've automated so much with technology, collectively we are so productive, and yet. the grind persists u_u

sometimes i see the old posters and stuff from like a hundred years ago when unions were strong like "well fellas we got a 40 hour work week now but in the future we'll have a 20 hour work week!! ☀️" and im like man. i wanna live in that timeline

LOOK AT MY COOL LIBRARIAN FRIEND

merry ⚖️ @merryknight.bsky.social · Sep 17

im usually pretty good at googling stuff on my own but I was trying to find state laws about a thing and google did not understand me at all and i ask library and in like less than 30 minutes they reply with specific codes and regulations

merry ⚖️ @merryknight.bsky.social · Sep 17

libraries and librarians are pretty cool i think

righttttt. it's wild how recent that was really
i wonder what the safest things to consume would be, probability wise? just raw produce, maybe? hm

also there used to be a lot of lead and arsenic everywhere and i think i'd immediately perish. we're so soft now isn't that cool. we have FOOD SAFETY now isn't that COOL. i think it's cool. shout-out to food safety and the poison squad

HAND SHAKE
i used to think my asthma would do me in but these days i think it'd be my stomach. i'd have to eat or drink something and my tummy would murder me about it

like listen it's fun to dunk on people in the past for ohhhh you didn't wash your hands? you only drank alcohol all the time?? but from what i understand the alcohol killed the nasties in their water, and it was not That alcoholic, so. idk. maybe they had a point

merry ⚖️ @merryknight.bsky.social · Sep 11

sometimes i wonder how long i'd survive if i was sent back in time. you'd think that with modern knowledge, like washing your hands, i'd fare better, but if i got sent back to a time where water generally was unsafe, would washing your hands just make matters worse??

if you like caramelcorn a description about how it crunches in your mouth and sticks to your molars with a lingering sweetness might be nice but if you hate that sensation it's gonna be gross. just like if you're into (static noise) (redacted redacted) will be hot but if you think that's nasty. well

merry ⚖️ @merryknight.bsky.social · Jun 16

like if you're writing something in a lot of detail people are gonna respond to that more whether that's because oh this is intriguing/terrifying horror, hot/disgusting sex, or mouth watering/gross food. i think.

merry ⚖️ @merryknight.bsky.social · Jun 16

listen i think there's a lot of overlap between writing sex, horror, and food because of all their ties to the visceral

by this metric, if you struggle to write sex and wish to get better you must write it as gore; and if you struggle to write gore and wish to get better you must write it as sex.

erotica and horror are two sides of the same coin, if you wish to write good horror, you must be willing to turn someone on, and if you want to write good porn, you must be willing to scare someone

i know absolutely nothing about him as a person, i do hope he does things safely because. boy they sure look dangerous

merry ⚖️ @merryknight.bsky.social · Jun 12

grateful for nilered because there's that part of me that goes "haha what if i did (dangerous stupid thing) on purpose. just to see what would happen :)" but now i can simply watch to see what would happen
