This is a beautiful text about Star Trek Deep Space Nine (my all time favorite concerning Star Trek) and why it is so much more than a science fiction show:

“But the 8-hour workday is too profitable for big business, not because of the amount of work people get done in eight hours (the average office worker gets less than three hours of actual work done in 8 hours) but because it makes for such a purchase-happy public. Keeping free time scarce means people pay a lot more for convenience, gratification, and any other relief they can buy. It keeps them watching television, and its commercials. It keeps them unambitious outside of work. We’ve been led into a culture that has been engineered to leave us tired, hungry for indulgence, willing to pay a lot for convenience and entertainment, and most importantly, vaguely dissatisfied with our lives so that we continue wanting things we don’t have. We buy so much because it always seems like something is still missing.”

Guessing fediverse admins may want to block that instance (it calls itself "The pro-liberty social network" which is fash speak)

Just a heads up to anyone who isn't a fascist lol

The idea that we are separate from nature is a colonial idea that we need to abandon. It is both an anti-indigenous concept and unproductive towards limiting the effects of climate change and healing our planet.

My love for beetles.

Indigenous people from modern day Canada and Alaska invented the first sunglasses. The oldest pair known dates back to the year 1200. They work by limiting the amount of sunlight that hits your eyes, preventing snow blindness.

It feels so good to just post without concern of “likes” or “unfollows”, there’s such a wonderful #freedom to this platform

#Introduction:

I’m Jordi (they/them pronouns). I’m queer & nonbinary (fluxfluid). Gender neutral language preferred because who knows what will feel good on any given day #genderfluid

I’m a LGBTIQA+ advocate and a young adult literature writer & reader. Living on the stolen land of Narrm (Melbourne).

I don’t know that I’ll be posting much here - at this stage I’m here to connect with community and learn from other advocates & activists. (And for the memes. Always for the memes.)

CW: White
