I Suggest That We Start Using The Term ‘creatives’ Instead Of ‘content Creators’ For Authors/artists/gifmakers/podficcers

I said it in the notes on the last post but I’m gonna say it again.

I’m married to someone with severe memory problems. Automation of household appliances & systems helps him a lot and helps me a lot because it reduces the number of things I have to keep in my brain at all times. I love doors that lock themselves, being able to schedule dog food being delivered, a thermostat I can manipulate from wherever. Beyond my little bubble it should be noted that voice controlled appliances can be really good for people with mobility concerns. Appliances that can measure and talk and remember little tasks can be such a blessing for people.

I will never forgive Amazon and Google for taking technologies that could be really helpful and weaponizing them, and fuck everybody who acts like its some kind of conspiracy theory that those devices are spying on you. You absolutely should be distrustful of those devices but just make sure you’re getting angry at the right people.

I don't want to hear anything about solidarity with queer Palestinians from people who cheer on their principle oppressors. Queer Palestinians in the West Bank lost friends at the Nova concert massacres, but some people don't care. An Israeli Arab won Miss Trans Israel but none of them cared. Even in opposing Israeli policy towards queer Palestinians, none of them called for reforming the asylum process or to end policies of threatening to out Palestinians in order to turn them into informants. They prefer queer Palestinians to die than for their lives to improve through *Israeli* actions.
