'Not many people have ever died of love. But multitudes have perished, and are perishing every hour—and in the oddest places!—for the lack of it.'

@pad3p @KiwamiCube Colin Baker (6th doctor) was right when he said that TV is limited in what you can do about stories that span the whole of time/space. The audios really unlock a potential for the characters concept wise and writing wise that the TV show never touched

[Alex @MesmericMonad]

@pad3p @KiwamiCube You can find thousands of hours of the audiodramas for free out there, and a great deal of them are anything but subpar. The whole Gallifrey series featuring Romana, Leela, & Braxiatel is brilliant. Stories like Neverland / Chimes of Midnight are some of the best DW concepts

@0jzk4 @RegularSanStan @jona_net The sun is authoritarian.

@meta_nomad This looks fascinating, interested to see how this develops. Have you looked into Bodynamics at all by chance? Integrates Reichian somatics to coordinate behavior with each specific muscle in the body

@jayexci2 Oh hell yea, sweet. Such a cool project :) Romana was always my fav companion so it's pretty rad to see her with people like Leela. Brax is fascinating too lmao

@polen_ball @Kholina54321 I see the diamat argument 4 this but I also think humans under educated and free conditions will find ways to meet their needs, and perhaps a broader (global?) political goal wouldve been implausible, but that's even the case today.

@polen_ball @Kholina54321 Yea idk wat the use of tools would look like in an alt timeline and ig it matters not but I dont think that the industrial revolution helped set the stage for communism even if it normalized large-scale socialized production/distribution. Mostly empowered the ruling class imo

[Alex @MesmericMonad]

@polen_ball @Kholina54321 And it seems like ever since capitalism appeared historically, the consciousness of humans to self-empower and operate their lives without an authoritarian state/the market has only decreased exponentially

[Alex @MesmericMonad]

@polen_ball @Kholina54321 I think it could have happened, it would just be people doing labor that Marxists wouldn't label proletarian. I dont see why it couldn't have occurred that humans in other social forms decided to overthrow their power relations and establish whatevers close to communism

[Alex @MesmericMonad]

@polen_ball @Kholina54321 Tbh I think a "communist" state of society would have been easier to achieve if capitalism never happened

@profmoser @TheRealVarnVlog Not sure it's exactly what youre looking for but I've got to plug this gem. Wood helped to advise this as a dissertation, and is named after a book by her colleague, George Comninel's Rethinking the French Revolution. Extends her analysis in Origin of Capitalism to Industrial Rev

@pando_guillermo @ld_nv_ @GlueGulper13 @fioobsie Look up "Johnny truant" in gifs lmfaooo I had to search it up myself. Perfect representation of the book sometimes

Sorry but you missed the boat and are all wet.

Anesthetics bind and act in non-polar, water-excluding hydrophobic solubility regions which support quantum
optical effects in aromatic rings. We call it the ‘quantum underground’ inside proteins, lipids, nucleic acids throughout cells. Microtubules quantum underground pervades living systems. The polar charges in the aqueous phase would decohere quantum states.

And the water on microtubule charged outer and inner core surfaces are ordered and dynamically coupled to microtubule oscillations, https://t.co/tbxjpVxz6L

@PervertGuide Like u can keep displacing responsibility by referring to some "Other" or a supposed gnosticism or whatever. But at the end of the day, genocidal pedophiles are making these terrible decisions dooming the world. If you cant account for that, youre just talking nonsense.

[Alex @MesmericMonad]

@PervertGuide No, I'm pretty sure there are specific world leaders making terrible decisions and funding data centers to ruin the environment
