does anyone else just. want a drinking tap in their room? like we have so much other shit going everywhere we don't need but unfortunately despite all of my ambitions i do not always have the organisation to walk to the well (bathroom/kitchen) as much as i would like in order to stay hydrated. my ancestors would be appalled

[the-tenth-arcanum]

broke the pipe in the bathroom sink. fuck!!

[link-sans-specs]

Ok, so... I was curious about this at the time...

Where was the water going? Obv not actually in his b-hole. It had to be running behind the sofa somewhere. Well. Turns out this particular sofa is plumbed and ready with tubing for just such an occasion. 🌊

[terrifyingstories]

tasha doesn't really have any kind of innate expertise as it pertains to things like plumbing, tiling, house improvement projects, general handiness, etc, but what she does have is grit, patience, and an impressive capacity to pick up new skills and knowledge rather quickly. she isn't intimidated by these projects and is surprisingly good at figuring things out with enough time and information. she's not a crazy genius, nor a plumber or mechanic or whatever she finds herself doing, but she's sharp and she likes a challenge.

she's not a professional, but she's handy and good to have around if you have a leaky faucet or running toilet. she's down to help with any home project and has taken on quite a few herself, both at home and at the studio she owns as well.

she doesn't have a huge passion for these things per se, but she likes figuring things out and challenging herself, and i think it's especially meaningful to her after how she was raised. this was the kind of work tasha was never supposed to know anything about; born into high society, she was always discouraged from getting her hands dirty in any kind of way and never would've been allowed to engage in anything remotely close. but after the attack, tasha was given an opportunity to reinvent herself, and she did.

it's not really something anyone could guess by looking at her; she's delicate and petite and not someone you expect to know her way around a toolbox, but one of the benefits of her new life is that she gets to be full of surprises, and she is. she likes that, not necessarily because she cares what other people think of her, but because she likes proving to herself that she's capable of new and challenging things.

I just wanted to say that your Neighbor!Graves works have me enthralled and entrapped. He lives in my head rent free and man's was obviously raised by his grandparents.

Keep up the excellent work

Same :( I have a whole pinterest board dedicated towards this specific au since it's been living in my head since like February and it's rotting my brain :/

I imagine that Philip, the pinnacle of the red blooded american, is quite popular in the community. It's a relatively small town so basically everyone knows everyone and they certainly know the war hero, Graves! He's invited to every grill in the neighbourhood and he himself has organised many in his own backyard. He'd be especially well known among the middle aged women and housewives who even though married they still insist on bringing him cookies and lemonade and give you mean looks when they see you near Mr. Graves.

Like I imagine poor Reader just looking confused when she finished chatting with her blonde neighbour as she was watering her plants in the morning and these three jogging older women gave her the most judgemental stink eye😭

I imagine they'd legit go nuts if they ever saw Graves leaving your home with the biggest grin and you waving after him with a bright smile and he was there to fix your plumbing :(( and try and woo you bc he's a dirty old man with the ultimate hots for the cute younger girl next door (it's starting to work)

Can we stop romanticizing ancient pagans as if they were all peaceful tree-huggers or free of any wrongdoing?

Sure, many Norsemen were farmers, artists, and excellent sailors. Some were also responsible for raiding English monasteries and settlements of their food and wealth, among other heinous things.

Sure, the Romans had a huge impact on human society regarding the calendar, plumbing, architecture, and sculptures that show us pieces of history. They were also responsible for colonizing most of western Europe, the middle east, and even north Africa. They eventually took on Catholicism, and much of what they did with it is still reflected in today's society.

I'm sure other pagan cultures had their own fair share of absolutely fucked up stuff going on. Does that make every individual ancient pagan terrible? No. But let's not pretend that all ancient pagans as a whole were innocent of any foul acts.

Uplinkchump Linkdump

On June 20, I'm keynoting the LOCUS AWARDS in OAKLAND.

It's Linkdump Saturday! This is the day on which I clear the giant backlog of links from the previous week that I haven't managed to post in my newsletter's "Hey look at this" sections. This is my 19th linkdump; here's the previous 18 dumps:

https://pluralistic.net/tag/linkdump/

Let's start with some fun and games. Liam is a high-schooler who created "Bad Plumbing," a Jenga-style boardgame using a variety of 3D printed shapes; the game was a smash hit at his local game-jam, so now he's kickstarting it:

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/liamclift/bad-plumbing

The shapes are delightful and Seussian, and there's a very ingenious game dynamic that's not just "make the pile bigger." You can pre-order for $30, and for $100, you'll get a version with a custom-designed shape of your specification. I backed!

It's lovely to see something that's both excellent and delightful, but to be honest, the majority of this week's links are excellent and enraging. Most of these links from The American Prospect, which has, under David Dayen's executive leadership, gone from "a magazine I really like" to "the first thing I read every day."

This week saw a the Prospect publish a stunning series of articles on prices, a sacred object for neoliberal economists, who see them as the carriers of the information that allows society to order itself for maximum efficiency and broadest benefit. Unfortunately for these economists, the love-affair with prices is one-sided: they may love prices, but prices hate neoliberalism.

The dogma that says that any government interference in pricing will destroy the economy by "distorting" prices does not survive contact with reality. The instant the government steps away from regulating monopoly, and its handmaiden, fraud, prices go batshit crazy.

This week's Pluralistic newsletters were dominated by this brilliant series in the Prospect. On Wednesday, I wrote about the Prospect's investigations into algorithmic and surveillance pricing:

https://pluralistic.net/2024/06/05/your-price-named/#privacy-first-again

And yesterday, it was the epidemic of junk fees:

https://pluralistic.net/2024/06/07/drip-drip-drip/#drip-off

There's more than I could fit into the newsletter, though, like Friday's excellent piece on the scourge of surge pricing by Sarah Jaffe:

https://prospect.org/economy/2024-06-07-urge-to-surge/

Jaffe's piece was especially interesting given economist Ramsi Woodcock's compelling case that surge pricing is a per se violation of antitrust law:

https://pluralistic.net/2021/07/26/aggregate-demand/#pure-transfer

The Prospect series was so timely. After decades of pricing orthodoxy, economists like Isabella Weber are making huge waves (and attracting a tsunami of abuse). Weber's interview with Vass Bednar on the Globe and Mail's Lately podcast this week is a must-listen:

https://www.theglobeandmail.com/podcasts/lately/article-the-millennial-economist-who-took-on-the-world/

(Though if you get your econ ideas from the New York Times, you'd miss this whole revolution, as the Grey Lady's views on prices remain mired in the Reagan era:)

https://twitter.com/HalSinger/status/1798849195664916648

Few prices are more important than the price of the roof over your head – after all, "shelter" is only second to "food" in the hierarchy of needs. Dayen's Friday story for the Prospect in NIMBYism gets to the crux of the cost-of-living crisis: people who own houses want houses to be expensive, and will go to enormous lengths to make sure that shelter costs as much as possible:

https://prospect.org/infrastructure/housing/2024-06-07-homeowners-want-housing-prices-to-go-up/

Dayen attributes this to "the wealth effect" – that is, most people would like to be richer, and the minority of Americans who have a positive net worth owe that status to rising house prices, and the plurality of Americans who have a negative net worth thanks to a mortgage are counting on rising house prices to flip them into the black.

When America threw off the Gilded Age, we charted two courses to prosperity for working people: labor unions and home ownership. The ruling class cannily convinced us to rely solely on the latter. The housing emergency raging across the country is the inevitable result of that decision:

https://pluralistic.net/2021/06/06/the-rents-too-damned-high/

The Prospect's consistent brilliance isn't merely an editorial matter, of course. The magazine features a recurring cast of some of the best muckraking writers in the field, and the absolute peak of that impressive pile is Maureen Tkacik. Tkacik's work on Boeing is stunning:

https://pluralistic.net/2024/05/01/boeing-boeing/#mrsa

Her labor coverage is second to none:

https://pluralistic.net/2023/09/14/prop-22-never-again/#norms-code-laws-markets

And no one writes better than her about private equity:

https://pluralistic.net/2023/06/02/plunderers/#farben

I am in pure awe of Tkacik's prolific and expert work. So when I read her piece on Long Covid in the Prospect this week, I was stunned to learn that she has been severely disabled by this heavily downplayed – but rampant – chronic illness:

https://prospect.org/health/2024-06-06-nih-perpetuating-long-covid-denial/

The fact that Tkacik is doing this career-defining, high-frequency work while being randomly smashed by a series of acute Long Covid incidents makes her achievements nothing sort of heroic. But Tkacik's Long Covid coverage isn't a lament for her personal situation – it's a characteristically brilliant investigative story about the systematic cover-up of Long Covid by the NIH, which has a long history of dismissing inconvenient illnesses as psychosomatic, from black lung to chronic fatigue.

Tkacik's Long Covid coverage adds yet another subject where I'm learning more from the Prospect than from other sources – part of a host of issues where the magazine leads the pack. An issue far more squarely in its wheelhouse is antitrust, especially the intersection of antitrust and labor rights.

This week, I eagerly devoured Luke Goldstein's story about the latest in a series of lies that Amazon executives were caught making to the US government:

https://prospect.org/labor/2024-06-06-senators-allege-amazon-lied-delivery-drivers/

You may recall when Jeff Bezos lied to Congress, claiming that the company didn't spy on its sellers and clone their best products:

https://www.bbc.com/news/business-58961836

Or when Amazon posted a lying rebuttal to a Congressman who objected to its drivers being forced to pee in bottles in order to meet its punishing schedules:

https://www.aboutamazon.com/news/policy-news-views/our-recent-response-to-representative-pocan

The latest lie: Jeff Bezos and CEO Andy Jassy lied to the Senate about the company's relationship to its drivers, whom it insists are "independent contractors" because they are hired through cutouts called "Delivery Service Providers":

https://pluralistic.net/2022/04/17/revenge-of-the-chickenized-reverse-centaurs/

These drivers work for Amazon. It dictates their working conditions. It installs cameras that watch their eyeballs while they drive. It enforces an illegal "no poach" system that fixes their wages. And it lies about all this. To the Senate.

You know what they say, it's not the crime, it's the cover-up. Tech barons go through life in a warm bath of their own bullshit, surrounded by lackeys who are contractually prohibited from calling them on it. They forget that there are people out there in the world who won't offer them this deference – including lawmakers and regulators.

That's why Facebook lied to the FCC when they bought Instagram, withholding key information in order to secure regulatory permission for the merger:

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/ftc-claims-facebook-withheld-information-152834983.html

After decades of inattention, the world's governments have discovered a newfound energy for busting trusts and smashing corporate power. Five years ago, it looked like maybe this was a fixup by Big Cable or Big Content to take Big Tech off the board so they could claim more dominion over our lives:

https://memex.craphound.com/2019/06/04/why-is-there-so-much-antitrust-energy-for-big-tech-but-not-for-big-telco/

Today, every sector is coming in for antitrust scrutiny, and the tempo is only increasing. Just this week, the FTC and DOJ opened investigations into Microsoft, Openai, and Nvidia:

https://www.theverge.com/2024/6/6/24172868/ftc-doj-antitrust-openai-microsoft-nvidia-investigations

Yeah, there's still a lot of policy focus on tech, but that's because tech has extended its tendrils into every area of policy. That's the end-point of a decades-long process of tech going from sitting alongside important policy questions to being inseparable from them. I've had a front-row seat for that transformation, through my work with EFF, whose brief just keeps expanding as tech infuses every aspect of our lives and rights.

The latest example; EFF's "Surveillance Defense for Campus Protests" by Rory Mir, Thorin Klosowski and Christian Romero:

https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2024/06/surveillance-defense-campus-protests

The military has gone all-in on electronic surveillance, and campuses have gone all-in on militarized policing, so campuses are now sites of electronic warfare, and protesters are vastly overmatched. This is an excellent and timely guide.

Well, this is where this week's linkdump comes to an end. It only falls to me to send you off with one last week: Libro.fm's buy-one/get-one sale on DRM-free audiobooks, with a share of each sale going to an indie bookstore of your choosing! This is a heckin deal, and a great way to start weaning yourself off of the Audible monopoly (also, my latest novel The Bezzle, is in the sale):

https://libro.fm/bogo

[wistfulcynic]

the inn is a metaphor

They are terrible at running an inn. 

In the beginning. 

They don’t know the first goddamn thing about the hospitality industry. Or carpentry, plumbing, invoicing, logistics. Anything, really. They know nothing. 

They learn. 

There’s a lot of trial, even more error. But by the first time the Revenge returns for a visit they have something. A roof that doesn’t leak. Un-rotted floorboards. Nooks and crannies free from feral beasts of any kind. Zero spiders. Twin armchairs in front of the fire and a bed just big enough for the two of them. It’s a start. 

The Revenge comes bearing gifts. Wee John has knitted them some afghans and Frenchie sewed an enormous quilt, which takes pride of place on the bed. They’ve towed in another ship as well, a wreck whose timber they all pitch in to rebuild into an extension and some outbuildings. Roach helps them plant a kitchen garden and a medicinal one. 

Jackie gives them business advice and contacts for her old suppliers. Lucius has a guestbook for them, with marginalia he drew himself. Some of it at least is appropriate for guests to see. The rest…

“Are you planning to have guests who’ll faint at the sight of a cock?” Lucius inquires innocently. “Because I’ll be honest with you, that seems unlikely.” 

The idea of guests of any kind is still a long way off, but they’re getting there. They can envision it now, and not just as a wild fantasy they spin each other at night as they lie entwined with sweat cooling on their skin. They have actual plans, concrete ones, and a decent understanding of how to realise them. 

They get to work. 

Jackie’s contacts prove invaluable. Soon they have a liquor supplier, deals with local butchers, bakers, candlestick-makers, and even a reliable fisherman to give them first dibs on his haul. 

(It’s not Pop-Pop.) 

A few survivors of Zheng’s old crew hire on as housekeeping and kitchen staff. The soup is phenomenal. Ed learns how to make it and how to cook a fish without burning it. They have fresh-smelling towels, expertly folded. They have guest rooms, and soon they have guests. 

It’s an adjustment, having new people in their space. Some of the guests are gawkers, eager for a piece of Blackbeard and the Gentleman Pirate. They reserve the right to refuse service to anyone, namely those particular assholes. But other guests are much more pleasant. Locals looking for a bit of a mini-break, people from nearby islands wanting a getaway, even the occasional European who doesn’t know who they are. 

The guests are mostly happy with their stay. There’s excellent soup and decent fish, fresh linens and great views. The walls could be a bit thicker, perhaps, for everyone’s comfort, but the hosts are always most apologetic in the morning and offer copious marmalade in exchange for good reviews. 

The Revenge returns frequently, each time with some new trinkets and finery for their former co-captains. In exchange, they host bonfires on the beach with music and dancing and wine, until they all fall asleep together in a pile, so like the old days on the ship that Stede watches them in the soft light of the embers with tears in his eyes. 

“All right, love?” Ed asks him. He slips an arm around Stede’s waist. Stede tugs him in until Ed’s head is nestled against his shoulder. He strokes Ed’s hair. Ed sighs and snuggles closer. 

“I’m all right,” Stede says. “A bit nostalgic is all.” 

“You miss it.” 

“I miss the crew. I wish they could visit more often. I suppose I miss the sea, though of course it’s right there in front of us. But I’m happy, Ed. I have no regrets.” 

“Really?” The whisper of doubt in Ed’s voice has Stede pulling back to look down at his dear face. 

“Yes really! Do you doubt it?” 

“Kind of.” Ed shrugs. “It’s easier for me, I think. I was ready to be done with it, Stede. Desperate to do anything else but be Blackbeard. But you—you had just got started. You could be out there now with the crew, pirating away. You could be famous. You could—” 

“Ed Teach, you listen to me.” Stede’s got his Captain Voice on now and the sound of it has Ed’s stomach turning cartwheels, his dick leaping to attention. “I don’t care about any of that. I only wanted to be a pirate for the freedom. To escape my old life. But I have a life now that I would never want to escape. Do you know why?” 

Ed shakes his head. 

“Because I chose it. I chose you. I love you and I would be happy anywhere you were.” He cups Ed’s cheek in his palm and kisses his forehead, his nose, his lips. Ed moans and presses closer but Stede pulls back, just far enough to whisper, “You make Stede happy.” 

They spend that night alone in the inn, no guests, far enough from the beach that when they serve breakfast to the crew the next morning not a single smirk or smart remark is sent their way. 

They wave goodbye to their friends that evening and stand together on their porch to watch the ship sail off into the sunset. Stede turns to Ed with a smile. “New guests checking in tomorrow,” he says. “We should probably fix the creak in the door hinge of Room 1.” 

“I’ll do it,” says Ed, “if you polish the candlesticks. Fuckin’ polish makes my nose itch.” 

“Deal,” says Stede. He turns to head inside. “What’ll we have for dinner?” 

“Got a nice turbot we could roast.” 

“Ooh, fab.” 

The inn’s front door closes behind them. 

It’s still a bit rickety, their inn. It’s old, it creaks, it springs leaks from time to time. It’s hard work, keeping it going. But they are devoted to the task. Whatever it takes, they will see their inn thrive. 

It’s what makes them happy. 

[is-this-yuri]

once upon a time i worked for a total of three and a half (3.5 entire) weeks at a metalworking facility where i used power tools to carve away at giant metal pieces. the metal pieces in question were pipes and plumbing of various types, to be used in sewer and water systems. so, for threeish weeks, i was part of the reason someone had running water and sewage. this is generally considered unskilled labor for some reason

anyway, the place didn't provide me the right sized gloves. i have freakishly small hands, so like, i didn't expect them to have a good pair for me right away, but they refused to get me a pair in the right size. so, since i didn't feel comfortable with my fingertips flopping all over the place, and they didnt just let not wear the gloves, i got my own.

i got vibration resistant gloves because i noticed even within the first day that my hand was getting numb in places from holding the tools. the gloves seemed to work great, but they quickly wore out and i had to take them home for difficult repairs every week.

i STILL got raynaud's syndrome. just working there for less than a month! with special gloves designed to help prevent it! i didn't realize until the next winter i spent homeless and my fingers went numb and turned white, so i never thought to pursue any compensation.

on top of this, the OSHA guidelines for average dust particles in the air was up on a board for me to read, but when i read it i wondered if they'd considered the fact that every single employee stops their work and sweeps their station at the same time every day, kicking up a visible cloud of metal dust particles. my boogers were constantly, always pitch black for the brief time i worked there. i have some pictures of me in that place and i literally look like a coal miner. no masks or respirators provided, i also bought my own of those.

this was also a teamsters company, and i was really excited to hear that at first because it was my first time working under a union. and most likely the union has made excellent progress in making that workplace safer than it otherwise would be, but i personally still didn't feel like my health was a priority.

so yeah, three weeks at that place was enough to know it wasnt for me. i didnt even mention the macho work culture i didnt fit into, which is also common at factories and warehouses. this wasn't my only attempt at this kind of job, but it was the shortest, because at that point i had enough self respect to leave when i knew it was bad.

the sad thing is, every job is like that in some way. your health is never a priority. the unions have gotten us to a point, but it's essentially bare minimum. and thats if you can even get unionized. you're going to have to reach into your own pocket to accomodate your needs at work, a pocket your boss's hand is already deep into.

so if youre feeling guilty, or lazy, or worthless because you can't stand your job, just know that almost no job is a hospitable enviornment.

I just love how Mario and Luigi both care for each other in their own ways.

Mario is the older brother, the protector. He is quick to jump to his brother’s defense from bullies or people saying mean things about him. Always pushing is brother behind him and being the front line to keep him safe. He also works to boost Luigi’s confidence, offering comfort and reassurance. He is excitable and eager and keeps his brother from retreating into himself by getting him to get out and try new things (always staying close though just in case). 

Luigi is a caretaker. More calm and gentle then his brother, and more level headed. He is the one that handles the phone calls for their business and the one that carries their plumbing tools. Mario is so excitable he tends to forget to bring their tools when he rushes out the door to help the next client and can’t keep track of multiple phone calls or keep a schedule. Luigi excels at these things though and has great customer service skills (Mario is a bit of a hothead especially if a customer is upset at Luigi). Luigi also makes sure his brother eats (he gets so focused sometimes he forgets), bringing him food and his coffee in the morning. Along with the physical caretaking he keeps his brother’s spirits up too, bragging to others about how great his brother is and always telling Mario he is a good brother and great at what he does.

They are both also very affectionate with each other. Lots of good natured teasing, secret handshakes, hugs, claps on the back etc. etc. They really are two parts of a whole, each filling in the gaps of the other.

I'm a minor who is shifting, trying to shift. But some places I want to shift to seem like a really bad idea to shift to, and I want to script every bad thing out because I wanna explore the place and see the cool things but none of the bad things. But I know the bad things happen...any advice or recommendations? Sorry if this isn't detailed enough or a stupid question

(I'm 16, the place is game of thrones bc I wanna adventure with some people and do fun things with none of the unnecessary things that actually happened in the series)

Greetings Fellow Shifter,

It turns out I can help you with that, as i plan to shift to the worlds of House of the Dragon and Game of Thrones myself.

I’ve found that scripting certain elements is essential for a more enjoyable experience, so I’ve included a few things that I believe would be beneficial for your journey:

Modern Plumbing: Yes, this includes sinks, showers, toilets, and more—because let’s be real, these are essentials.

Cleanliness and Hygiene: People in this world are clean and maintain good hygiene (because we know it can get pretty grimy otherwise).

Warrior Skills: I’ve made myself an excellent, OP warrior. If anyone dares to challenge me, they’ll regret it.

Better Treatment of Women: Women are treated with respect and dignity, not as objects.

Safety During Sleep: Nothing can harm you while you’re sleeping.

Immunity to Poison, Drugs, and Alcohol: You cannot be poisoned, drugged, or unintentionally drunk.

Perfect Health: You are immune to illnesses and injuries, and you heal rapidly from any wounds.

Multilingual Abilities: You can understand and speak any language or dialect used in this world fluently.

Enhanced Intelligence: Your strategic thinking, memory, and problem-solving skills are top-notch, allowing you to navigate political intrigues and conflicts effortlessly.

Allies and Friendships: You automatically attract trustworthy and loyal friends and allies who support and protect you.

Wealth and Resources: You have access to significant wealth and resources, ensuring you can live comfortably and influence events when needed.

Royal Connections: You are connected to or respected by the ruling families, granting you a level of protection and influence.

Stealth and Invisibility: You can become invisible or move undetected when needed, perfect for avoiding dangerous situations or eavesdropping.

Knowledge of Future Events: You have a general sense of key events that might unfold, giving you an edge in planning your actions.

Enhanced Reflexes and Agility: Your physical reflexes and agility are heightened, making you unbeatable in combat and quick to react in any situation.

Protection from Magic: You are immune to harmful magical effects or curses.

Perfect Timing: You always arrive at the right place at the right time, ensuring you never miss an opportunity or fall into a trap.
