@azvolrien @emitter-of-learjets the hour of my triumph is at hand! thank you for your preliminary interest

I have a gr9 idea for a poll but I can't make them yet...

[charminglyantiquated]

one of my favorite concepts from a series about fey creatures was sort of a golden rule - interaction leaves room for interaction. See them, and they might notice you. Touch them, and they can touch back. Speak, steal, harm...

This is flawless, thank you! Put really beautifully.

Call for beta readers

Especially all you orc-lovers with less than pristine thoughts about the Dark Lady.

After reading A Favor for the Queen by the brilliant Redisaid , @emitter-of-learjets & I spotted some potential trans allegories in Sylvanas, & I got to wondering how she might interact with trans characters -- trans orc ladies in particular. 

Naturally, this led to a few days of obsessively headcanoning orcish LGBT culture. 

Right now I’m writing a Sylvanas/trans oc fic that takes place during BFA, focusing a lot on how the actions of leaders & champions effect the Horde’s queer community. Sylvanas is a disaster lesbian, Orcish culture is gay af, most homophobia/transphobia is directly traceable to the Legion/Shadow Council, and all the Nightborne are bisexual. Just try and stop me. 

Message me if you’re interested in giving it a critical eye! Or if you just wanna rant about gay orcs and Sylvanas’ Big Strap Energy

JACOBIN MAGAZINE

Emily Atkin, in an article for the New Republic, has written the latest in a recurring genre of articles defending rich people who advocate for action on climate change. A year or so ago, Vox gave us “Rich climate activist Leonardo DiCaprio lives a carbon-intensive lifestyle, and that’s (mostly) fine”; now, Atkin has set out to establish that “Al Gore’s Carbon Footprint Doesn’t Matter.”

Both of these pieces take on a popular right-wing talking point: rich liberals who live carbon-intensive lifestyles yet advocate for government action against climate change are hypocrites. This, Atkin argues,

is deceitful faux-populism . . . climate change advocates who don’t live a carbon-neutral lifestyle aren’t hypocrites because, for the most part, they’re not asking you to live a carbon-neutral lifestyle. They’re asking governments, utilities, energy companies, and large corporations to increase their use of renewable energy so that you can continue to live your life as you please, without contributing to global warming.

Atkin is correct on one thing: the Left does need to reckon with the “Learjet liberal” rhetoric — but her approach is not the way to do it.

The reason that Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and other voices on the Right have so much success with this attack is that it contains a kernel of truth: climate change is largely the fault of the rich. As Chancel and Piketty detailed a few years back, the “top 10 percent emitters contribute to 45 percent of global emissions, while [the] bottom 50 percent contribute to 13 percent of global emissions.”

People see Al Gore living a lifestyle that clearly has more of an impact on the world than theirs, and they resent climate change solutions that threaten to make his lifestyle their problem.

Atkin tries to finesse this point by blaming climate change on a series of abstractions — “governments, utilities, energy companies, and large corporations” — but everyone knows that all of these institutions are controlled by the rich. Later, she leans on an argumentby David Roberts that the contributions to climate change by individual rich people are insignificant — but this technicality misunderstands the fundamentally classed nature of Learjet-liberal rhetoric. It works not because people necessarily hate Al Gore in particular, but because people generally resent the rich as a class, and are happy to find targets for their anger.

Fortunately for the Left, there’s a simple response to this talking point: reclaim class warfare. The fight against climate change has to be understood as a fight against capitalism. If you leave climate action in the domain of private decision-making, then of course rich people who make decisions to disproportionately pollute are hypocrites when they call for action against climate change. But if you understand climate change as a fight to take personal discretion out of the equation — to abolish private property and place control in the hands of democratic governance — that’s another matter.

(Description same as on youtube, but with voice credits)

I've been wanting to try doing something like this since I decided to study animation. The visuals aren't fantastic because I was working entirely on my own for them, without any particular instruction or extra time. The audio recordings also weren't fantastic, since I didn't have anywhere good to record and ended up with a lot of echo that I had to try to reduce. Still, I feel like it came out pretty well. It's the sort of project I wouldn't be ashamed to show people, which is better than I expected.

Many thanks to my friends who helped me make it happen!
