"So the concept of “prison abolition” doesn’t simply mean abolishing prisons, but means working and struggling for a transformation of society as the groundwork necessary to work toward the abolition of prisons. Angela Y. Davis is author of a book called Are Prisons Obsolete? [12] Prisons are obsolete in the sense that the massive expansion of incarceration has clearly not dealt with the ostensible social ills imprisonment is supposed to ameliorate, and prison abolitionists have worked tirelessly to denaturalize the prison and incarceration as inevitabilities. Abolition is about breaking down and getting rid of the political and economic conditions that make the current prison system viable, and that is what it means to “make prisons obsolete.” If we think about property abolition, it requires us to think about what a world beyond the norms, structures, and psychic-symbolic centrality of private ownership might look like, and what the preconditions for such a shift might be. What I’ve learned through a recently completed project, a book of interviews titled Revolutionary Feminisms, [13] is that abolition work begins with centering and recognizing the transformative work, a work of survival really, that exists around us, has always existed, and upon which we must build.

Modern aus are a lot of fun and i do understand the narrative signifcance of power and class in mdzs and to preserve characterization you may find the need to replicate that in a modern story but please stop making Nie Mingjue a ceo. Why would you do that to him? Stop taking him out of his natural habitat (in the forest chopping wood with his shirt off) the office environment does NOT provide him with enough enrichment!
#did you guys know that there are actually other rich people jobs?#i am joking of course you should write whatever you want#but the corporate world would make nie mingjue DEEPLY miserable#being good at being a sect leader (parttime ghostbuster parttime politician) is a skill that CAN transfer to modern capitalist corporatism#just look at jin guangyao#but that doesn't mean that it always WILL#and i could actually see him own a company depending on what it does. owner and ceo are not the same thing#just don't make this man deal with shareholders#mdzs#nie mingjue

the love of my entire life
#valtteri filppula#no one cares but i'm still gonna rant about this because you don't understanddddd#he's objectively one of the most succesful finnish hockey players. no not just in my biased opinion he really is!!#no other finn has won the triple gold (the stanley cup + olympic gold + world championships gold)#in the latter two he was also the captain of the team 😭#1000+ games played in the NHL#he's also won the swiss league and the CHL#he could have retired. moved to florida and bathe in his money#but what does he do? comes back to play in his home team 19 years after he left#(if we don't count the few games he played here in the NHL lock-out season 2012-13 before he got injured)#in his home team that currently does not even play in the top division??#as one of the owners of the team?? practically for FREE?!#because he wants to give back to his team and help them back to the top division 😭#i mean. what kinda person does that?? 😭😭😭😭😭#i'm bawling at how he walked in the locker room for the first time and introduced himself to everyone (with his nickname!!)#as if all them didn't know exactly who he was. come on he's a living legend??#he said he wants to be treated like everyone else in the team. they're just some boys#and he's won pretty much everything you can win in this sport#look how stark the locker room is in comparison to what he got used to in the fucking NHL and the swiss league 😭#at 40 years of age he's gonna be sitting in the same bus with these youngsters through the darkest of finland's winter#again i cannot emphasize enough that he could have retired to e.g. florida where he used to play for many years#(and where i think his wife is from? but i'm not sure so don't quote me on that)#he's so humble so smart so polite so friendly and on top of that he is handsome as fuck 😭😭😭😭😭😭#i've never had the chance to meet him but this season i really hope i can. although i'll probably cry loads and make an idiot out of myself#i was bawling my eyes off just watching him skate on the ice in his first match this season. it all felt so surreal. he's home again 😭#i've loved him for a thousand years (or just 20. but it feels like thousand years)#i'll love him for a thousand more 💙

ngl i think i kind of was a genius for being like 'yeah this character is a scary killyou cannibal scary killer who scary kills you' and then realizing that the way my worldbuilding works out is that there's a nonzero chance that if you leave literally any body parts over they can just come back, depending on what they believe in their heart of hearts can kill them. Of course she'd start eating her kills. She probably tried normal stuff first and then realized it didn't work and she had to try harder if she wanted to actually keep them dead.
#red rambles#im working on a character who i made up years and years ago and wasnt even happy with then because he didnt seem to have enough like#interior thoughts he was just like a guy who killed people when he was stressed and his life was constantly stressful and then he killed on#person too many and they were like 'this is fucking untenable and he has to die' and then they killed him#which is soooooooooo absolutely nothing honestly. Like it works as a barebones summary but i want to stress there was actually straight up#nothing else there. the entire rest of his whole whatnot was just being entangled with Haven who is a different character who at the time#ALSO felt unsatisfyingly lacking in interiority but at lesat he had really complex motivations and action flowcharts. that werent just 'i#get grumpy and i just go kill some random person with no regard for what the consequences will be and then i am so mean and i kill you'#now theres a lot more happening. i really didnt. like.#okay so i had a Backstory worked out but it was vague because i didnt know what the fuck he WANTEDDDDDDD right like. i had no motivations a#literally all except 'oohhh i kill people ooohhh i like killing people ooohhh im erratic i kill people' and the background i HAD was like.#Upper class scion of some rich family whose family honest to god just did not like him very much and also [gestures vaguely] i guess he#maybe kicked dogs or something and then he ??nebulous timeline meets haven and then kills his sister or kills his sister and very quickly#thereafter meets haven but i usually lean toward the former because haven LOVES convincing people to kill their whole families its like#cathartic for him because he would love to kill his entire family but physically cannot do it. but like kind of the implications of this#as far as i was concerned given this is set in the mid 1800s was like. ehhh he's getting away with this because he's rich white and male an#it pays to turn a blind eye to his indiscretions or w/e. a genderswap means that she'd be subject to a lot more scrutiny on basis of like#misogyny. LOL. and i already had the preexisting 'hates half sibling' (i genderswapped the sister into a brother because why not) and 'hate#parents' and 'parents strongly dislike her' and 'unsettling' and it worked nicely to start giving me actual fucking. Literally anything to#work with there. because it means that by going off with Haven she walks out of one situation where she has like 0 agency into another one#and like to be clear i respect anyone who is sitting around in haven's general vicinity for snapping and just starting to kill people. me t#but this works. SOOOOOOOOOO much better for real#im still working the kinks out but like also this means that she wins. she wins like multiple times actually. she comes closer to killing#haven than anyone since he learned what fucking species he was and causes him more trouble in the interest of getting the FUCK out of there#than anyone else has and then she fucking gets what she was going for against literally every effort haven could've made over ~five decades#get owned loser.#every time i draw her i cant help it i write some shit like PLEASE JUST GET DIVORCED on it even though i wrote the fucking narrative i know#it will never fucking happen and thats why she does all this shit instead#in another world she'd be like the wildly capable owner of Raytheon 2 or some other shit like that. like she'd never be a nice or good#person but she wouldn't be dead. god she could be in charge of a country or some shit. Alas. Please get divorced.

found out that rascal's owner took him again while i was out, and he's probably not gonna be back since the semester's almost over. i don't even know if his owner's coming back next semester, if i'll ever see him again. if he'll ever see me again. why do they wait until im not around to do this? why do they never let me say goodbye to him?
#i didnt really get to process it bc i found out when i was hanging w a friend but. im processing it now#sigh.. i dont know. i dont know.#at the end of the day he is and has always been someone else's cat. i can't control what she does with him#no matter what i think of it. she can always take him away. but every time it happens im just. im tired yknow?#it's worth it to me to have him around. i love him dearly and i want him to be in a home where he's actually cared for (which i have done my#best to provide) but he's just. not mine. and every time it happens i back up and think man. im such a sucker.#i don't think people manipulate me often. not in an ongoing way i mean. i don't think ppl see me as valuable enough to most of the time.#but damn. she really found my weak spots didn't she. free petcare courtesy of one chump who can't live without animals around. sigh#he deserves stability but he deserves love more. this weird shared custody thing is better for him i think. and frankly i also love him.#im not the priority here but my feelings are like. there. him being taken away without even telling me first hurts. i'd like to be able to#say goodbye to him. im not saying he has to stay or this has to go on but couldn't they just.. consider my feelings a bit more?#just bc you're fine with dropping your cat off somewhere for weeks not knowing when you'll see him again and not visiting doesn't mean i am#and i kind of feel like my roommate is part of this. after all it's not like his owner can just break into our room and take him#and if im always out when they do it there's a chance roomie's just shipping him off whenever she gets sick of him.#she's done it before. even after she agreed so vehemently with me about never wanting him to go back to such treatment and stuff early on.#she's been spraying him for little reason lately too. and i mean i get being a little more cautious with some things bc her neck's broken#but she's really fixated on how much he smells and bites and stuff and talks about how if i wasn't around she'd consider eating him#and then other times she's like that's my pookie. i don't get it. like yeah i tell rascal to fuck off sometimes bc he hurts me but it's not#like a hateful thing. i dont resent him for it i'm just annoyed sometimes bc he's maiming me a little. he's my baby. how could i loathe him?#so it makes me think that roomie might be blaming his transfers on his owner bc she doesn't want me to judge her#and like. this is her room too. it's not her fault she's more bothered by the smell than me. if she doesn't want to be bitten and clawed all#the time i can sympathize. i don't wanna force her to house him. but i wish she'd just be honest with me i guess#like. what if his owner decides to give him away without telling me? i'd take him in in a heartbeat. even though i know it's a bad idea.#but i'm worried he'll fall out of my reach completely. and at the very least I'd like to be able to say goodbye first. that's all.

Maybe Kaveh left Mehrak out and she's displaying a hologram of one of them and Tighnari gets scared when he sees it as they all come into the house
“i think i��ll let mehrak wander the house a bit while i work. what’s the worst that could happen?”
*loud screaming coming from the entrance*
“*sighs* god damnit mehrak.”
kaveh goes out to apologize to everyone for whatever mehrak did and finds: one sick alhaitham, one not-sick alhaitham, 2 cynos, 2 tighnari’s, a third tighnari summoned by mehrak, and kaveh.
kaveh is also screaming now alongside the others because wHY ARE THERE TWO OF YOU GUYS WHY IS THERE ANOTHER ME WHAT IS HAPPENING AAAAAAAAAAAA
and mehrak is just floating there smiling, without a single thought going through her mind.
#mehrak is like a puppy who just brought her owner a dead duck that she found and she has no idea what she’s done wrong#‘hello i brought you something :D oh you’re getting loud! does this mean its play time? are we playing?? i love playing with you :D’#♡⊱a talks#♡⊱a answers#kaveh's voice impressions#alhaitham fucks up the leylines: the saga

Really hate that “ethical” seems to be the new buzzword of the week
#saw someone refer to themselves as a ‘highly ethical horse owner’ and I had to put my phone down for a while#what does that even mean WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN#and how are you assigning YOURSELF that label without a hint of irony#ok guys I��m just going to assign myself as an ethical person then I’ll never have to do any reflection on my own actions ever again#im just good for life and no one is allowed to criticize me ever

ik canonically cas' only interaction with a cat was an interrogation but i literally don't care everyone can benefit from a cat. he cared about the whole world because of dean he can care about a cat somewhere in there let me have my tfw cat au. go in peace
#my proof that he can learn to like a cat? re: you changed me dean#he can change he has the range alright open ur mind to the possibilities#tfw gets a cat and everyone thinks cas and the cat just ignore each other little do they know the conversations going on#they dont have a pet owner relationship i feel like cas doesnt really get the whole ''pet'' thing they're just buddies or wtv#whenever cas does talk to the cat out loud he talks to it the same way he talks to everybody else he doesn't really see the distinction#my reasoning ? it's how i talk to cats#just know that when im like ''cas has a cat'' i dont mean ''oh soft uwu baby has a wittle kitty awww'' no#i mean he has discussions with a fellow beast on their mutual assimilation into a human family and#what they lost and gained by accepting said assimilation#ignore this im just thinking about my fic and cas would have conversations with that cat ok..

The problem with cash is I literally convince myself that no one can see me spending it and therefore it’s not real money and can’t get me. And then I spend £48 on books
#my grandma gives me cash every time i see her and i always forget to deposit it until i’m carrying over 200 in cash like some child emperor#who is begging to be robbed#the thing is instead of depositing it i make these stupid financial decisions#anyway does anyone want my book haul in text form??? okay so#first i hit up a secondhand book shop and honestly i could’ve spent all day in there and bought everything but i tried to be realistic about#what i was actually going to read sometime soon#so i bought revival by stephen king; the unbearable lightness of being by milan kundera (i just keep hearing good things about this book#and i’m curious and it was only £1.50)#then i bought two taylor jenkins reid books; after i do & maybe in another life#i just like her romances. i don’t care for contemporary romance generally but idk there’s just something about how she writes#i really liked one true loves and how Much was going on in that book. so i decided to get these two as well#then i walked into a new book shop and for whatever reason my inhibitions just left my body#it would’ve been better if i had gone buckwild like this in the secondhand shop but anyway#i bought a fucking special edition of dracula. what’s really crazy is it wasn’t even the cover that sold me#the typesetting is so lovely for some reason. i saw it and i was like okay the next time i read dracula; it needs to be from this book#then i got rouge by mona awad because i loved bunny; it was so delightfully bizarre#and i dithered a bit but i bought orbital by samantha harvey#i am just so curious about how it beat james for the booker prize… i’ve gotta know why#i mean maybe i just have the blinders on when it comes to percival everett in that i think everything he writes should win an award#like maybe it’s just me#the owner gave me a free magazine and wrapped my books really nicely 🥹 i must cry#i feel like the trip was a success. i love independent bookshops. my wallet doesn’t though#personal

Go figure I'm getting annoyed with linguistic unpopular opinions when Grey is prevalent in me. Hilarious stomping around in the astral being particular about coding shit and having to pause mentally to complain about things
#Unpopular linguistic opinions: Saying smudge is the official native term as a non-native borders on racist because it is#explicitly an English word and haven't we done enough ''you speak English. English is your official language. English words are your words.#Your actual languages and words don't matter. Your terms and labels for things need to be forgotten so you can speak English''#Like... It's like saying ''you can't call something a tribe because that's the official native (what native??? What native language???) wor#you should use something like People or Group instead'' like I understand ''smudge ceremony'' is the official English term...#but like. smudge is English. It's not a native word. It was applied to natives' rites and it's what they call it. Calling waving incense#around smudging is not appropriating a native word - you could argue. because I fail to find sources on it#being used in Christian settings. that seeing natives call smoke cleansing smudging and then trying to cleanse with smoke and calling it#smudging is appropriating but not just natives (again. people don't even say what tribes and what language Smudge is from)#smoke cleanse and smudge is English. We can loathe appropriation without telling people that natives' official terms for things#are English words and that English is their official language#Second unpopular opinion is plurality us obviously a thing but I actually agree that plurals shouldn't use medical terms#We all know ''I'm so OCD'' and calling interests special interests and hyperfixations is not appropriate and saying that it's not#appropriate is not saying you aren't heavily affected by lack of neatness and your interest doesn't make you ecstatic and consume#a lot of time and space in your brain and thoughts. but. it's not OCD and not a special interest or a hyperfixation if you're not on the AS#But that's less related to spiritual things so let's leave off that. I mean it's entirely related I split myself into multiple people#constantly. It's how I get shit done. I have multiple selves. I watched the original owner of the body die#But just like someone with a wild belief isn't experiencing delusions and thinking a hair is a spider isn't hallucinating...#these aren't alters and I'm not a system because my dissociation is not DID or DDNOS or whatever it's called#Oh to be clear w the smudging thing. Smudging /is/ used as a native term. Smudging ceremony is a native thing. Smudging#with sage and all other features of it is a native thing. It's appropriation to yoink it into your own practice. But saying that Smudging#is their (who????) official term and that if you use the word for smoke workings you're appropriating because Smudge Is#A Native Word that's.... I don't understand. Autism brain does not compute. Antiracist brain says weewooweewoo#racism alarm why are you as a non native saying an English word is the official Native word#ramblings //#Anyway I needed to get that out Grey's gonna snap lmfao if I don't let some steam out of the engine. I can be reconvinced#with these opinions. These aren't things I see others saying and then unfollow over. Its just my part of the ongoing debates about them#but man. Anyway. If I don't chew on silly human drama I'm going to literally chew the walls of reality down. Silly Human Drama#being his label because that's what it is in comparison to the crushing weight of the planets-before-planets knocking on the#walls of entire realities can't you TELL I'm ASLEEP and yet the hunt was always going on at this time... And I am...
