i know they don't necessarily look like anyone in particular (at least if you're going off the dream guardians that appear on top of the netherbrain, i know minsc's appears as dynaheir) but, do u ever think about what the rest of the party's dream guardians might look like and what that says about them……. or at least what it says about the emperor, who crafts them to look like someone (it thinks) the characters would trust

Happy pride month to my dad. When I came out as bi to him, this man googled what it ment, look at me and said "ohh. Yeah. You get that from me. You'd have far more siblings of I only shaged women." And went right back to his work emails.

Ask yourself: what’s good about this moment right now? Is the sun out? Can you hear birds? Are you drinking coffee? Can you smell freshly cut grass? Is your bed soft and warm? These little things are oh so precious and yet seem so arbitrary.

New video! Shikata Ga Nai: The Mars Trilogy by Kim Stanley Robinson

This one is really special to me ✨ I love space and I love communism and I love utopianism, and the Mars trilogy has been a huge inspiration to me ever since I first read it. It's a sociological epic telling the story of human habitation of Mars through a series of successive revolutions over 200 years as humanity strives towards a future where nobody is hungry or homeless

The books have never been adapted to screen, which presented a big challenge to me as a video essayist, so I included a lot of my own astrophotography to show everyone why I love space 🌌 🔭

I also spent hundreds of hours in Kerbal Space Program recreating iconic sci fi set pieces from the series ✨👽

It's a really pretty video about a story that matters a lot to me, and I think there's so much in the trilogy to enjoy that I didn't get around to that you really don't need have read the books before watching 🥰 but I hope you'll want to read them after.

This essay is about utopianism, which I think is utterly vital. We need to formulate and share our postcapitalist desire. We must dream.

"The deepest desires of our hearts and minds and those of others are a necessary form of knowledge and of truth" - Ruth Levitas, Utopia as Method

PSA gays: if you're wearing a mesh/lace shirt to a pride fest, sunscreen your whole chest/back before putting it on. I can't live to see another diva fall prey to sunburns with bizarrely specific patterns.
