walked into the living room, my dad said "hey watch this" and then went to mow the lawn. i sit down just as a guy has a heart attack and a bunch of guys in winter gear put him on a table and start defibrillating this wasn't traumatizing as much as i was like an awakening

"After the President died he somehow “persuaded” the Vice President not to take the oath of office. Did we then have a President or not? A real “Constitutional Conundrum” the papers called it." they even got the news being limp to the point of complicity up in this

based on how few there are and what a pain in the ass it is to replace them and shit i've always assumed that space marines are also immortal to like 90% of violence to the point a catastrophic battle for them is like ten guys die. some lore stuff implies this, some doesn't, as with most things 40k

though i guess it is kind of relevant. i've seen multiple cops giving seminars and speeches say that basically they can find a reason to pull anyone over at any time if they really want to

like "the fact that they deign to not arrest me for the crime of jumping at a foreign sound just reinforces the power they have over me, not relieves it" that's a far cry from speed limit laws, but in principle i'm on team "if the law can't be consistently enforced revise it so it can"

i was thinking about this reading the city and the city, where the main reason the bizarre consensus reality of the cities only stands up because the breach cops routinely overlook minor infractions and mistakes and mostly thinking that seemed really bad, in a kind of terroristic sense

theres an angle there, the Malazan series has a whole bit about a summoned shock trooper just being a confused and scared fisherman from a dimension where people are big monster guys, though yeah that has to be a more deliberate choice than the example

one of the reviews said the idea stories in this collection get more sophisticated as it goes on do you agree with that? wondering cause I read the first two and not big so far, the one with the monk especially. to me at least ligotti's thing is too specific and unique to just also do that thing

for further info on this subject pretend to read bataille also if nerevar comes back as a lady it's because of what vivec did in the ritual to disrupt the nerevarine prophecy.
Yung Kark Alien Wine (@yungkark.bsky.social) reply parent
specifically it's like vivec's thing is he wants to be infinite and that's what he's advocating, to reach a higher state of being by violating the boundaries of one's own existence it's a short putt to gender from this idea and vivec in general is very gender
Yung Kark Alien Wine (@yungkark.bsky.social) reply parent
ive spent an embarrassing amount of time trying to figure out what vivec's books mean and the only conclusion i can come to is 'reach heaven by violence smacks of gender'
