I love interacting with you all very much, and I know there’s a lot of important political issues in the world going on right now. I love my Linux Mint setup, I support Palestine and trans people, and I’ve blazed through all of OG Star Trek, TNG, Voyager, and am now on DS9.

But I also want to discuss Luka to the Lakers and Kendrick calling Drake a pedophile and getting 5 Grammy’s, a tour, and a Superbowl halftime show out of it, you know? I wanna talk about your country’s Eurovision entries. Am I just not in the right communities?

    This is a bit mean. Just because I want to talk about the WEIRDEST trade in the modern NBA (that has collusion vibes all over it), doesn’t mean I am vapid and shallow.

    I volunteer a lot in my community and mutual aid spaces, and things have gotten a lot worse since the pandemic. Talking about so called “vapid” social topics is how a lot of us avoid burnout.

    Also if you watched Kendrick’s Superb Owl performance, saw the message he was trying to portray about black empowerment, how ANGRY the establishment MAGAbros are over it, and still think of it as mindless drivel…maybe you’re part of the problem.

    Things don’t have to be academic to matter.
