That's an adhesive surface, right? That's why subsequent powder applications don't change the colouring from the first application, right?
Is this a standalone piece or is this a transfer sheet that can be applied to clothing or other surfaces?
Either way, this is wicked cool.

Oh, it's a sticky surface, isn't it?
Can this be put onto clothing items, or other surfaces? Or is it a standalone art piece?

I'm confused: how does brushing the colouring over the areas you weed only apply the first colour? Like the skin tone powder gets all over the hair colour field, but doesn't discolour it?
Otherwise, this video is amazing I wish I could do this. Is this a Cricut transfer vinyl?

Before you go off, YES I am entirely aware of the nuances of why we engage in rules-bending, and eventually rules-breaking.
And YES, I'm aware that certain rules NEED breaking, like, fascist laws. This post isn't about that.

Even better because it's more accessible and easier to do:
Oven mitts and a container large enough to hold a cannister and shake it, and fill it with soupy mud.
Wear thermally insulated gloves.

Is this supposed to be damage control? Do you think we don't understand or fail to grasp your "justifications" for betraying your mandates, your mission, your patient community, your Hippocratic oaths?
You are complicit in the most literal sense. You complied with a crime. Reverse your decision.

Men are the biggest existential threat to humanity, bar none. Evolutionarily speaking, individually speaking, doesn't matter. Men have got to get a fucking GRIP. Or we all pay for it, even them.

Someone, sooner or later, is going to go "fuck it, launch the nukes" because they are so pissed they can't get their own way, or so despairing at an unwinnable situation, and....that's it. Once that ice is broken, the second nuke will be that much more likely.

(9) if we can't find a way to definitively manage our instincts (in a way that doesn't introduce an even worse dystopia where our instincts are directly pliable and therefore capable of being weaponized for even greater oppression vs today)...if we can't get it right, the rifle is on the mantlepiece

(8) and that's the end of the sentence that evo.psych leaves open. Yes, we have programming but we ALSO have executive oversight, and interventions for those evils. I think we're doing a shit job of that, though. And I think, of we want to survive as a species, we NEED (not optional) to do better.

(7) complicity is complicity, so I'm not exonerating women by sourcing their contributions to the realm of inhumane behaviour back to men. But I think it's important to be aware of the link.
Here's my point though: we don't HAVE to be like this. We can control ourselves. It's hard, but possible.

(6) women have other kinds of programs, other kinds of toxicity. And maybe it's only as a consequence of them being historically subjugated by men, but....absent men's threats, I think women won't typically default to behaviours that end up killing 6 million people in gas chambers

(5) ...it typically results in them taking out their impotence in areas where they have a very basic, British, but *satisfying and soothing* control. And so they abuse people with less people, to cope with how they themselves are being wronged by the basic facts of existence.

(4) These programs are immensely advantageous from an evolutionary standpoint. But they can lead to the very worst behaviours, resulting in the very worst of human experience, such as fascism, etc. when men come up against the limits of their ability to force the world to conform, to make sense...

(3) but we don't experience life from an evolutionary lens. We have many instincts that we recognize are not ideal for the communities and societies we've built, and do our best to suppress them. Men's need to define, constrain, control, possess, these are, to my mind, evolutionary programs.

(2) the main criticism of evo.psych is that it leads to a sense of fatalism, bioessentialism etc. but MY take is that, while our programming leads us towards certain tendencies, those tendencies aren't the ONLY way we can behave/operate. Those programs work in an evolutionary context. (Cont.)

I see no reason why this can't be done; hate speech is not and cannot be considered protected speech. And there is no speech more hateful than that of fascism, of whatever stripe.

Ie, I'm speaking to the viewpoint that has a post of mine being declared as violating Community standards when what it actually did was uphold them through the celebration of the death of an existential threat to those standards. How do we get institutions onboard with that level of antifascism?

when I say that there's no ethical way to oppose Nazis through direct action prior to them seizing power, I'm trying to say is that most of society believes what is legal is the same as what is right. I'm trying to find a way to reconcile how to oppose nazis not only meaningfully but also legally.

They view the use of violence to suppress fascism as an over extension, as an illegal response. Those people tend to believe that the law and Justice are the same thing. I don't think there's much chance of being able to convince most people, otherwise. It's too comfy in the middle.
