This is an angle that I don't feel is pushed enough.
THE 21st CENTURY:
HUMANITY: Hmm, climate change is a real problem but we're starting to reach the point where most of us acknowledge that something needs to be done.
A.I. DEVS: HEY WE INVENTED THIS GREAT THING THAT EATS FORESTS AND CRAPS OUT GARBAGE, IT ALSO STOPS YOUR BRAIN WORKING

I'm so grateful that my wizard journey was in the world of author Diane Duane. With complexity and queer characters. An author who wrote an autistic character that the autistic community took her to task over & she REWROTE her book in response.

Dunno why but I find it really depressing to see people who were formerly pro open immigration slowly changing to "I would be for it, but [same complaints about immigrants that have been made since the Chinese Exclusion Act]"

I recently realized that I've been very cautious about touching doorknobs at work. I would jerk my hand back before I touch it, then cautiously try to open it. I just realized why. I've been getting static shocks every time I touch the metal doorknobs at work and they have conditioned this response.

I'm not sure what to post here, but I should make my presence known so my friends can find me. I'll be posting quotes and shower thoughts until further notice.
