I'm not ready to talk about the sci-fi novel I'm writing in too much detail yet, but here's a meme about what it's inspired by without any further context

![The image says "Shen is seeking an ENGLISH -> BRAZILIAN PORTUGUESE TRANSLATOR TO TRANSLATE ABOUT 100 COMICS! - Image editing is not required. I only need a translation of the text, panel by panel, like "panel 1: [dialogue], panel 2: [dialogue]" - Comics are generally 4-6 panels with 2-8 lines of dialogue between them. - Must be fluent in Brazilian Portuguese, preferably including modern slang and grammatical quirks. If interested, my DMs on here are temporarily open to anyone. Please message me your rates!" There is also a picture of Shen with a determined expression with sparkles in his eyes, clenching his fists in front of himself. He is saying "those fellas in my quote replies... I... I must SPEAK to them...!!"](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:fnmi7afaet3hqjmsagh5mc2p/bafkreigd6yy42lqftuhzqbsb2ospimc7ir4glzuvh552hfstyz2jtcoddy@jpeg)

This is just what the average Nordic kids show is like
In the 2010s, the Icelandic tv station Channel 2 accidentally added subtitles from a gritty crime drama to an episode of Teletubbies.

rapist foreign policy from a government full of rapists
US Secretary of Treasury Scott Bessent:
What I am urging everyone here to do is sit back, take a deep breath, and let things play out. The worst thing countries can do is escalate against the United States.

yeah authoritarian regimes are really quite sensitive to public opinion
there’s a reason why the Russians have generally (or at least to a certain point) tried to avoid conscription in Moscow and St. Petersburg

what they understand about authoritarianism they have gotten from movies and YA novels
How is it that so many people think that authoritarianism is a way to bypass completely public opinion?

fwiw this is the kind of stuff that is going to get us through, not playing rambo
Minneapolis and Saint Paul have basically mobilized into a war economy of mutual aid and non-violent defense. I’ve never seen anything like it, even during Covid. People who barely vote are guarding their schools from ICE and doing the shopping for neighbors in hiding.
This is so smart. I’m so impressed with all the different ways you’re helping your neighbors.

There's a reason why Fred Rogers used the word "neighbor." The older I get, the more powerful I realize "being a good neighbor" is... and I'm not talking about some damn State Farm.

"We Beat 'Em Before... (Portland's Version)"
This idea came to me late. I think it fits really well since Portland Frog Brigade literally carries no weapons and yet ICE has no idea how to respond to them. Just feckless incompetent goons all around.

Daisies, a Czechoslovakian film I watched for a class I took on European cinema I took a while back.
It's basically a feature-length r/LetGirlsHaveFun post with a visual style I can only describe as David Lynch meets Pinterest.
Good movie though. Haven't seen anything like it before or since.
