solange das verhältnis der menschen zu ihrer arbeit, ihren nachbarn und sich selbst sie vernichtet, werden auch die schwulen keine ausnahme sein.

wir sind überall! wir sind die zukunft!

emptyness is me and you

nichts ist selbstzerstörerischer als die männerherrschaft, die verhältnisse belacht, die sie selbst produziert hat.

If this were a movie, this would be the plot twist at the end of the first act. Well, well, well.

Murderbot would love Festival de Cannes

The story with the trans woman aged like milk

I'm glad that Conina talks shit about Cohen in this. The Cohen/Bethan stuff in The Light Fantastic is the only thing that kept me from rating it as highly as the other Discworld novels I read so far.

I don't feel like committing to a longer book right now so I somehow ended up reading Kaur again because of her low words per pages ratio. I think I still don't like her poetry though. 😬

Not to be mean but the mum's extremely long head distracts me every scene she's in

Fairly certain that this is the only manga that has ever used the term "queerplatonic". Didn't think I'd see the day!! It's not important for the plot but it gets mentioned and explained when the main character is asked what kind of relationship she wants.

Absolutely wild to see a niche ace label like lithsexual mentioned in a manga of all places when most mangaka are too cowardly to even use well-known labels like bisexual.

Kondo implies here that tidying is infectious and once you tidy your spaces, the people you live with will start tidying on their own accord. I can tell you right now with certainty that that's not true. Source: My life living with other people

Babadook cameo

There's a subplot in this that is just "Her (2013) but in space"

The average train conductor will involuntarily kill three people in his career.
I've been taking the train regularly since I was 10 and I've heard my fair share of announcements giving "people on the train tracks" as the reason for a delay or cancellation, so I think about this a lot, how being a train conductor doesn't just mean you have to learn how to operate a train but also deal with severe trauma

Reading the only Caitlin Doughty book I haven't read yet for spooky month

Finally back for more Discworld, baby!

I'm back for more Murderbot, baby!

AAAAAAAAAAHHH

I waited five years for this, no one talk to me until I'm done with it

There's a wordplay based on a viral Vine in here

ich bin aromantisch, weil ich nicht zwischen romantischen und platonischen beziehungen unterscheiden kann – wirklich, was ist der unterschied, mal abgesehen von förmlichkeiten? und weil verliebt sein und angst haben sich so ähnlich anfühlen; und weil ich mich andauernd verliebe, und nach kurzer zeit immer merke, irgendwie ja doch nicht so.

Fühls

Ich war Mal eine Person, die wirklich viele Micro-Label kannte im A-Spec und auch in der weiteren queeren Community, aber wenn man Mal ne Weile nicht mehr so fest im Griff der sozialen Medien ist, verpasst man, was gerade an neuen Labeln aufkommt. "Exteramo Anziehung" lese ich gerade zum ersten Mal. Interessantes Konzept, hilft mir persönlich nur wenig, da ich Anziehungen differenzieren schwierig finde.

Them saying about a hundred times that they're boring but also saying about a hundred times that they're weird... God, pick a struggle, guys

My library loan expired and now I won't get it back for probably three months, so on the on-hold shelf it goes

My loan expired, so I'm putting this on the on hold shelf until I get it back and I can finish it (could take a month or two :/)

I'd say the "twist" in this book was too obvious, but maybe it's just because I'm a 26-year-old adult reading a book meant for teenagers

SHE SOLD THE **** OMG GO OFF
