@eniko and - I know this may sound weird - but this also plays a part in how I perceive and present my masculinity. There's a social expectation that someone like me should really own a big, expensive car simply because I'm a dude and that would somehow be an affirmation of my gender... and I'm so much like fuck that bullshit, I don't want any part of it.
È davvero piacevole avere nelle orecchie un nuovo lavoro di Ryan Adams – la cui uscita prevista per la seconda metà di febbraio è stata anticipata dal singolo radiofonico “Do you still love me?“. “Prisoner” è un album dalla genesi complessa: figlia di quel divorzio che lo ha devastato sia dal punto di vista emotivo che psicologi... https://noblogo.org/available/ryan-adams-prisoner-2017

"Death and taxes are supposed to be the things we can depend on in this life." This article intro is brillant. Because the article shows that all that hype about #ColossalBiosciences and it's "de-extinction" is gambling for money and personal fame, not for nature: https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/dec/31/colossal-ben-lamm-deextinction-dire-wolf-dodo-tasmanian-tiger-aoe"Colossal are preying on people’s desire to undo the sins of the past."#extinction #conservation #biodiversity #ethics #greed
Centuries pass, but human vices remain stubbornly the same. Dante placed the greedy in his Inferno for good reason long ago.Unchecked avarice has always been, and remains, a destructive force.#Dante #Literature #Greed
Tucking into this one because @pluralistic@mamot.fr told me I had to. I don't know how nuts it's going to be, but the first couple chapters start out with some truly wild stories.
