The #MeToo disclosure is so fraught for the listener, so “fatiguing,” precisely because it creates moral obligations for us. The words “this happened” and “he did this to me” must change our behavior and bring us into solidarity with the rape victim. That means offering a lasting and concrete opposition to rape and to the impunity of those who commit it, rather than relying on pacifying clichés like, “I’m sorry that happened to you” or “That must be so hard.” The rapist must change in our esteem; his reputation and status must be lessened to reflect what he did. The rape victim must be acknowledged and restored to the full membership in the community that the rape denied her. We can no longer act as we once did; we can no longer behave as if we do not know something that we do. Not if we are to live honorably, or by our own principles. But so many of us do not live honorably, and do not follow our own principles. To our shame, we find it too painful, or too difficult, to oppose rape; too costly to approach its victims with respect. And it is costly. The anger provoked by #MeToo, the exhaustion and annoyance felt at its parade of female suffering, might be best understood as a response to this shame. The rape victims, in their terrifying numbers and evident righteousness, were creating in us, their listeners, an obligation to transform our world. It was a task that most of us did not feel up to, and ultimately, it was one that we rejected. What rape victims want is to not be betrayed this way, to live in a community that shares their values and sees the horror and the wrongness of sexual abuse. They want their friends and family and lovers to seek to eliminate such violence without having to be told to...They want a world where they do not need to be asked ["what do rape victims want?"]. This is the world we have not been strong enough to make for them.

uhh okay so, some preliminary caveats: i am only just now Currently going through the process of learning this stuff so my understanding may be especially limited for this subject + idk how much of this is intentional on hussie's part buuut i also generally don't care that much about "author's intent" anyways so. let's see what i can do here.

this is the, "kantian metaphysics of space & time and how that might apply to homestuck aspects, because i'm slightly insane & i need to make my homework interesting," post. you know the funk mclovin homestuck & philosophy series? this should fall into a similar vein.

SO.

kant sees space & time as essentially two fundamental features of human perception, i.e. two cognitive faculties inherent to the human mind & Experience (kant's big into jargon so i'm gonna try to be careful w/ words here but, ehh not that careful). notable context here is that a big part of kant's overall goal (i'm reading selections from both the critique of pure reason & the prolegomena) is to respond to the empiricist (e.g. hume) and rationalist (e.g. descartes) points of view, ultimately critiquing, agreeing with, and synthesizing together different aspects of both stances.

w/ a lot of the space & time stuff kant is really responding to hume, who, as an empiricist, saw experience as the primary source of any n all deep metaphysical truths. this is as opposed to the rationalist position, which saw metaphysical truths as coming primarily from reason (e.g. descartes' whole process in the meditations of hyperbolic doubt -> one fundamental truth of "i think, so i exist," -> CDP & reasoning back up to bigger metaphysical truths like the existence of God). i tend to think of hume's position as the more passive one here, where you can just sit n chill n receive information through experiences from the outside world, versus descartes' position which is more active and requires more vigorous reasoning.

it's hume's ideas about "experience" itself here that kant is poking at, specifically the ways in which humans understand experience in the first place. to do this kant executes a kind of copernican flip w/ the order of understanding & experience.

(under the ptolemaic model, earth was originally situated at the center of the universe, surrounded by the moon, sun, planets (then only mercury, venus, mars, jupiter, & saturn), w/ a wall of stars on the outside. in 1543, nic copernicus flipped this view w/ his new heliocentric model, which placed the sun at the center & earth in orbit around it as the third planet in. thus, the copernican flip.)

kant's flip here is about the order of sensory information coming in & being interpreted in the brain. typically, and this is the logic hume followed, the assumption is that we passively gain information about the external world through the senses (we experience things) and then -> we break it down & interpret to understand it. correct?

according to kant, fuck no. in order to have an experience As A Person, humans inherently must have the cognitive faculties to understand space & time prior to any synthetic judgements.

here's my best analogy for this:

imagine building a model, or a bookshelf, or any kind of similar structure that provides you w/ pieces to put together yourself. if you've ever done anything like this before, you may know that not following the instructions makes it real easy to end up w/ a bunch of random leftover pieces that could just as easily be super fucking important or bonus spares. following the instructions, however, instead makes it a lot easier to understand what the true purpose of those pieces actually is. the paper just tells you. using this analogy: what kant is getting at here is not really the pieces themselves, but how they're understood by the person putting them together. space & time are essentially the instructions that determine what those spare pieces are-- only instead of being somewhat optional instructions, they are literally built into human understanding, like inherently. you are born w/ the instructions, and you cannot comprehend any of the pieces any other way. for another example of this: look at the room currently around you & focus on one object, like a chair, or a tree if you're outside. try imagining a space without that object, or even space without anything in it. shouldn't be too hard, you can even look up at the night sky and see all the empty space out there for yourself. now try imagining that object without space-- not just in the area surrounding it but inside it, creating the boundaries of it, not just 2D but completely lacking any spacial features at all. basically impossible, at least according to kant.

(just keeping this indented to break up the post a bit btw, not quoting anything here)

the important point to take from all this is that an understanding of space & time precedes actual sensory/synthetic experiences for kant. we simply Cannot comprehend things outside of spatial & temporal features, it is literally past the realm of human understanding.

this is where kant's whole synthetic a priori thing comes in w/ relation to his metaphysics. for a quick rundown:

analytic & synthetic: about judgements themselves.

analytic judgements: just about concepts, where the definition is contained within the term, i.e. the predicate is embedded within the subject. for example: all bachelors are single adults. no new information is added here, "single adult" is a part of the definition of "bachelor".

synthetic judgements: amplify knowledge, go beyond basic definitions, telling something new through the connection between two concepts via experience or intuition. for example: not all birds are capable of flight. these ones can be wrong, "capability of flight," is not something you inherently get from the definition of "bird". (alternate example: 5+7=12. you don't get the concept of 12, or even addition/math, from 5 & 7 alone.)

a prior & a posteriori: "from the earlier/prior to" & "from the later," respectively. about how judgements are known/justified/made.

a priori: independent of experience.

a posteriori: dependent on experience.

put together:

analytic a priori: conceptual truths.

analytic a posteriori: impossible (unless, maybe, you're God).

synthetic a posteriori: experiential truths.

synthetic a priori: possible, though difficult. the basis for kant's metaphysics. the big example kant uses here is geometry, which HE says is both synthetic, due to ideas like "all angles add up to 180 degrees" not being inherent to the definition of a triangle, and a priori, due to how geometry utilizes the cognitive faculty for understanding space that is built into the mind & is therefore independent of the need for experience/external sensory input.

that being said. what the hell does any of this shit have to do w/ homestuck, apples, you may be asking. well, barely anything, but lemme pull some conclusions out of my ass to justify subjecting you to this much kant. thank you if you've actually read this far. i love you.

the actual homestuck bit now:

it is made very clear at multiple points throughout homestuck that space & time are two aspects necessary for the completion of any given session of sburb/sgrub. one of my favorite series' to re-listen to on youtube, the textalks aspect analysis series, breaks this down in a really great way by pointing out that not only do space & time make up the basic fabric of reality, but they also specifically make up the basic fabric of homestuck's reality, as a narrative and story. they are the set and runtime as much as the physical world (or, following what we just went through, faculty of the mind- gonna make that connection in a sec, i promise).

i'd need to do more digging to check how explicitly this is said, but i think it's a reasonable conclusion that both a space & a time player are necessary for any session to even have a chance at success. the thematic associations w/ birth & death to space & time respectively are especially fitting for this reason, w/ the space players' ties to the breeding of the genesis frog & forge and time players' ties to a scratch construct (e.g. the beat mesa on LOHAC) being key to the success or restarting of any session of sburb. (a homestuck & death essay is next on my list to write. no promises for when that one's coming out.)

i actually don't remember if this is said directly, but it seems pretty clear to me that a part of the reason why the alpha kids' session was so completely, utterly stagnant was their lack of a time or space player. whether their session was void bc of a lack of time & space or was fated to be void & thus in turn fated to not have a time or space player is kind of besides the point here (skaia, like God, is one of those things that probably falls outside of human comprehension & the necessity of being subjected to the faculties for s&t), since either way they ended up not prototyping anything either.

rose discusses this w/ dave around (A6I2:4701-4708), when she breaks down void & null sessions:

DAVE: didnt you say at some point that not prototyping anything would be really bad ROSE: Yes. ROSE: It's just another way to create an infertile session. Though by a less catastrophic and bloody route we took to achieve the same result. ROSE: By contrast, it leads to a rather harmless, uneventful session. Underlings remain unaugmented, and so does the royalty. ROSE: And while this may sound advantageous to the players, it's a curse in disguise. The lack of prototypings which keeps adversaries unevolved has the same influence on the battlefield. ROSE: Without successive prototypings, the battlefield will never reach its final form, which must be fertilized to grow a new universe.

(A6I2:4702)

it's roses last line here that really stands out to me here, in connecting the failure of the session to evolve w/ the lack of prototypings to a lack of an evolved space.

slight sidenote, but one thing i've always wondered about is why hussie/whoever worked on the tie-breaker order for the extended zodiac quiz, decided to put time before space. even following kant's arguments (yes, we're still doing that) he seems to give space some precedence over time in the creation of his proofs:

Therefore the simultaneous existence of substances in space cannot be cognized in experience except under the presupposition of an interaction between them; this is therefore also the condition of the possibility of the things even as objects of experience.

(the critique: part c. third analogy, on the principle of simultaneous existence, B 258)

this is maybe not the best quote, but basically, ifaik kant breaks down all of his arguments for time being a basic faculty after space, w/ time's arguments being dependent on the ability to understand thing spatially (?)

to really tie this all together though: i think i'm actually more interested in kant's metaphysics here for how they connect time & mind, highlighting further just how in sync terezi & dave were during the beta kids' session.

i still really like how tg managed to fit understanding of mind into my post on plato & knowledge, way back when i wrote that essay, though i think this kant stuff could be another interesting way of looking at it.

mind in hs is very caught up in actions, in looking at & judging people through the things they do. it's complementary to heart in how external it is, less caught up in the nuances of an internal self by looking primarily at the vast range of potential choices any individual may or may not make over the course of their life.

kant, too, likes utilizing this line between external & internal. it's a part of how he refutes the cartesian skeptical/"problematic idealist," perspective, by basically saying that you can't doubt the existence of an external world w/o also doubting the existence of an internal one too-- here, by tying the internal "i think, i exist," self to persistence over time, which must come from the external world as, taking from hume, the internal is in constant flux.

time (& even space) being an inherent faculty of the mind really works in this context, what with how terezi is essentially able to see the multitude of timelines that any & all given actions lead to, and i quite like how this also shows some of the underlying connections/overlap between multiple aspects.

that's one of the ideas brought up in those tex talks videos that i really appreciate too, actually-- the nuances of how different aspects can deal w/ similar ideas, e.g. "life" is it's own aspect but as i just pointed out space is also tied to birth (and time to rebirth; istg i'm writing that death post), light to energy/vigor/living in the spotlight-- hell, even breath & blood & heart to the physical necessities of life itself. i'm almost tempted to say that aspects are less, "building blocks of the world," as they seem to sometimes be portrayed, and more lenses that filter through and emphasize different fundamental ideas (fits the color theory stuff optimistic duelist & arrghus were doing, maybe). that would certainly also fit with the idea that seers channel all of their understanding through their aspect, fixating on one possible lens & seeing all there is to see through it.

anyways, yeah. kant n homestuck. astronaut fuckin OUT.

Questioni, whoms art thou? (What does your toon look like?)

👀

Orb Giblets (Imagine I'm looking off to the sky)

If you're talking about ingame, here's what he looks like!

I usually go with the right one bc I think it looks better, but the yellow hypno glasses were apart of the fit for so long (++ they help bring out the yellow) that sometimes I still wear them for fun

Art wise, here's a quick sketch-that-got-out-of-hand of him

I have an older post of the first time I drew him so the styles a bit.. outdated but its colored.

I'll write more about him in the tags as to not make this post longer than needed

[caimitos]

there r no group of people more superstitious that students about to take a test.....my bangs r pissing me off but i'm too scared to cut them until november i'm sleeping next to my reviewers and i got my pencils sharpened by some lecturers i really liked for good luck. they're labeled and tucked away safely and i'm beginning to realize this is probably how white women are with their crystals

food review: happy crab (cajun seafood)

overall rating: ★★★★/5

what a cute lil place! reminded me of high school in a sort of amusement park sorta way (i'm used to peeling crawfish and shrimp in people's backyards rather than a restaurant), and it was so fun! had half a pound of crawfish, half a pound of shrimp, and some sausage!!

i re-learned to peel seafood (sad to say i forgot abt the crawfish digestive tract / poop thing until the second crawfishfjewiaofj). muscle memory helped me out tho :,)

minus half a star because they served me my food in a bag..? never seen that before, but ig it makes sense..? minus another half a star bc they only gave me one (1) piece of corn : (

also had a strawberry daiquiri! reminds me of a parade i went to with some hs friends where my friend's mom got us daiquiris and then we went to the mcdonald's where the worker said i'd look good w gages in my ear. i fell in love that night. (it doesn't take much to do it for me)

tbh i feel like it’s almost cheating to say that aradia is your favorite homestuck character. like yeah obviously you like the really cool and awesome and rad one. pick a little freak like the rest of us. be bold enough to say that you stan someone who’s actually embarrassing to stan

[secundus-cinaedus]

i still think there's few fandoms to have topped homestuck in complete and utter annoying factor but you can't deny the music goes

[adhdo5]

I fucking love doing homework on time I love doing math puzzles that all synergize with each other I love completing objectives and feeling accomplished

Harga Desain Rumah

Desain rumah adalah langkah pertama yang penting dalam pembangunan rumah impian Anda. Dari penataan ruang hingga pemilihan material, desain rumah memainkan peran utama dalam menciptakan rumah yang fungsional dan estetis. Namun, salah satu pertanyaan yang sering muncul adalah: berapa biaya untuk desain rumah ? Dalam artikel ini, kita akan membahas berbagai faktor yang mempengaruhi harga desain rumah serta memberikan gambaran umum mengenai biaya yang perlu Anda pertimbangkan.

Faktor yang Mempengaruhi Harga Desain Rumah

Harga desain rumah bisa bervariasi tergantung pada beberapa faktor yang berbeda. Berikut adalah beberapa elemen yang dapat memengaruhi biaya desain rumah:

1. Tipe dan Ukuran Rumah

Tipe dan ukuran rumah sangat mempengaruhi biaya desain. Semakin besar dan kompleks rumah yang Anda inginkan, semakin tinggi biaya desain yang diperlukan. Rumah dengan lebih banyak lantai atau desain yang rumit membutuhkan lebih banyak waktu dan tenaga untuk merancang.

Rumah Sederhana: Desain rumah dengan tipe yang lebih sederhana dan ukuran kecil cenderung memiliki harga yang lebih terjangkau.

Rumah Mewah: Desain rumah mewah atau rumah dengan banyak ruang khusus, seperti home theater, kolam renang, atau ruang gym, akan memerlukan biaya desain yang lebih tinggi.

2. Jenis Layanan yang Diberikan

Biaya desain rumah juga tergantung pada layanan yang Anda pilih. Beberapa layanan desain rumah hanya mencakup perencanaan dan gambar dasar, sementara yang lain mungkin termasuk 3D rendering, pengawasan konstruksi, atau pengelolaan proyek secara keseluruhan.

Layanan Dasar: Layanan desain dasar mencakup gambar denah dan beberapa rincian struktural. Biaya ini cenderung lebih rendah.

Layanan Lengkap: Layanan lengkap termasuk desain eksterior, interior, serta detil teknik dan pengawasan pembangunan. Tentunya, ini memerlukan biaya yang lebih tinggi.

3. Lokasi

Lokasi tempat Anda membangun rumah juga berpengaruh pada harga desain rumah. Biaya desain di kota besar atau daerah dengan permintaan desain tinggi cenderung lebih mahal dibandingkan dengan daerah yang lebih terpencil.

Kota Besar: Kota-kota besar seperti Jakarta atau Surabaya memiliki tarif desain yang lebih tinggi karena persaingan dan biaya hidup yang lebih tinggi.

Daerah Terpencil: Di daerah yang lebih kecil atau rural, biaya desain cenderung lebih rendah, meskipun ini juga bergantung pada permintaan dan kualitas layanan yang tersedia.

4. Kualifikasi dan Pengalaman Desainer

Desainer atau arsitek yang lebih berpengalaman dan memiliki reputasi baik biasanya akan mematok harga yang lebih tinggi. Pengalaman dan portofolio yang kuat memungkinkan mereka untuk menawarkan desain yang lebih kreatif dan fungsional.

Desainer Pemula: Arsitek atau desainer yang baru memulai mungkin menawarkan harga yang lebih terjangkau, tetapi kualitas desain mereka mungkin lebih terbatas.

Arsitek Berpengalaman: Arsitek berpengalaman atau yang memiliki banyak klien biasanya menetapkan harga yang lebih tinggi, tetapi mereka dapat memberikan solusi desain yang lebih terperinci dan dapat diandalkan.

5. Kompleksitas Desain

Desain rumah dengan tingkat kompleksitas tinggi, seperti rumah bergaya kontemporer, minimalis, atau desain yang memiliki banyak fitur khusus, seperti skylight, atap miring, atau ruang yang tidak biasa, akan memerlukan lebih banyak waktu dan keterampilan dari seorang desainer.

Desain Sederhana: Desain rumah dengan bentuk yang lebih standar atau bentuk geometris sederhana akan lebih murah.

Desain Unik atau Kustom: Desain rumah dengan fitur khusus atau bentuk yang lebih rumit akan memerlukan biaya tambahan.

6. Material dan Finishing

Desain rumah yang mencakup material dan finishing premium, seperti marmer, kayu solid, atau kaca besar, tentu saja akan meningkatkan biaya desain. Pemilihan material ini mempengaruhi tidak hanya desain visual tetapi juga struktur dan teknis bangunan.

Material Standar: Material yang lebih umum, seperti beton atau bata, cenderung lebih murah untuk desain rumah.

Material Mewah: Penggunaan material premium seperti marmer, kaca besar, atau kayu solid dapat membuat biaya desain meningkat.

Kisaran Harga Desain Rumah

Harga desain rumah bisa sangat bervariasi, tergantung pada faktor-faktor di atas. Namun, berikut adalah kisaran harga umum untuk desain rumah di Indonesia:

1. Harga Desain Rumah Sederhana

Untuk rumah sederhana dengan ukuran sekitar 60-100 meter persegi, biaya desain rumah biasanya berkisar antara Rp 10.000.000 hingga Rp 25.000.000. Desain ini biasanya mencakup gambar dasar dan beberapa elemen teknis yang diperlukan untuk membangun rumah.

2. Harga Desain Rumah Menengah

Untuk rumah dengan ukuran sekitar 100-200 meter persegi, harga desain bisa berkisar antara Rp 25.000.000 hingga Rp 50.000.000. Desain ini mencakup elemen lebih rinci, termasuk beberapa gambar 3D dan mungkin konsultasi tentang pilihan material.

3. Harga Desain Rumah Mewah

Desain rumah mewah atau dengan ukuran lebih dari 200 meter persegi bisa mencapai biaya mulai dari Rp 50.000.000 hingga Rp 150.000.000 atau lebih. Biaya ini mencakup desain yang lebih rumit, termasuk pengawasan, gambar teknik terperinci, serta pemilihan material premium.

4. Harga Berdasarkan Per Meter Persegi

Beberapa desainer atau arsitek lebih memilih untuk menetapkan biaya desain berdasarkan luas area yang dirancang. Harga ini bisa berkisar antara Rp 50.000 hingga Rp 150.000 per meter persegi tergantung pada kompleksitas desain dan pengalaman desainer.

Tips Menghemat Biaya Desain Rumah

Meski harga desain rumah bisa bervariasi, ada beberapa cara untuk menghemat biaya sambil tetap mendapatkan desain yang berkualitas.

1. Pilih Desain Standar

Jika anggaran terbatas, memilih desain standar atau template yang sudah ada dapat mengurangi biaya desain rumah. Desainer seringkali menawarkan paket desain template yang lebih terjangkau daripada desain kustom.

2. Gunakan Material Lokal

Pemilihan material yang mudah ditemukan dan lebih terjangkau, seperti batu bata atau beton, dapat mengurangi biaya desain. Hindari penggunaan material yang mahal atau sulit didapat, terutama jika anggaran terbatas.

3. Pertimbangkan Desain Efisien

Desain yang sederhana dan efisien dapat membantu mengurangi biaya konstruksi. Hindari desain rumah yang terlalu rumit dan pilihlah layout yang lebih praktis.

4. Bandingkan Beberapa Penawaran

Sebelum memutuskan untuk bekerja dengan seorang desainer atau arsitek, bandingkan beberapa penawaran dan pastikan Anda mendapatkan layanan yang sesuai dengan anggaran Anda.

5. Diskusikan Anggaran Secara Terbuka

Pastikan untuk berdiskusi mengenai anggaran sejak awal dengan desainer rumah Anda. Ini akan membantu desainer memahami batasan Anda dan menciptakan solusi desain yang sesuai dengan anggaran.

Kesimpulan

Harga desain rumah sangat dipengaruhi oleh banyak faktor, mulai dari tipe rumah, ukuran, hingga kompleksitas desain. Meskipun biaya desain dapat bervariasi, penting untuk memastikan bahwa desain yang Anda pilih tidak hanya estetis, tetapi juga fungsional dan sesuai dengan anggaran yang telah Anda tentukan. Dengan perencanaan yang matang dan pemilihan desainer yang tepat, Anda dapat menciptakan rumah impian yang nyaman, efisien, dan sesuai dengan gaya hidup Anda.
