“Not everything is autism. The whole family does x behavior” says the woman with 4/5 autistic grandchildren.
my patience is thin with people who like to walk the fence when talking about palestine but for one last time. what hamas did was brutal, yes. it was violent, yes. but most importantly it was inevitable. when you push people to such extremes, stripping them of their rights, their land, their dignity, their childhood, their dreams, their whole lives, they are bound to push back. if hamas didn't do it (even though this lazer focus on hamas is also a skewed perception of what's going on, other Palestinian resistance groups are also involved, including marxist/secularist groups) some other group would have, if they didn't do it now, they would have done it later. this kind of violence from the occupied is an unavoidable response to a much greater, much more brutal form of violence done by the occupier. thus the blame for the lost lives of israelis should only be placed on the zionist occupation. if you cannot understand this, or do not accept it, i'm not willing to take anything you have to say about palestine or palestinians or hamas seriously.

Don't think about US market
Sft: But it isn't necessary for you to be commercial!
Paul: We tried ten years ago to make songs that would be hits in English, but that's done. The world doesn’t want Rammstein in English! Nonetheless Till had the idea for other languages. We had Spanish on the last record, previously also Russian, and this time French which couldn't be prevented. Since we don’t restrict ourselves we just let it happen. We don't think about the US market and a single. We just found the chorus funny. Originally the song was entirely in English, but playing in front of the Americans and British, they asked us to incorporate some German. Till wrote something for the verses that English speakers would easily understand in German, easy to claim what the song is about. Complicated German lyrics with an English chorus wouldn’t work. A good song alone is a hit. We don't think: how will it be a hit? We simply want to make a good song. "Pussy" will be the first single. Previously we would have refused because yes, it's too trendy. Now it's easy for us to use a song that's pleasing. I don't think it will be a hit. While it’s a good song and funny and people will certainly understand it, it isn't a monster hit. But it's cool, it has four chords. Four chord songs are perfect!

something I don’t see people bring up a lot when talking about worldbuilding, especially when you’re creating cities, is wind. prevailing winds in many places in the northern hemisphere blow from west -> east, and because industrial production tended to take place in the centre of cities, workers would live downwind of factories while the wealthier classes would live on the other side, away from air pollutants, which is why a lot of cities have a poor east-end and a rich west-end, a spatial configuration that persists in many places that are now post-industrial
and in general the built environment has a durability to it that persists far past the historical moments that produce those configurations. this means that the stated aims of a city via a vis city planning are frequently at odds with the physical layout of the city itself. so if you want to create a city that feels like it has a long history to it, working through its earlier stages of production can help with decisions you make about its layout, and also allow for weird spatial contradictions in a city that has to constantly fight against its own physical history
adding to this post: this youtube playlist is a series about the history of cities in north america that I really enjoy, it goes through the stages of urban development via economic stages of production. It’s a decent resource if you want to learn about urban development and geography in a more casual way
Percy Shelley doodling while helping his wife edit the draft of her first novel, Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus (1818):
The idea for the story was devised in mid-June 1816. The draft shown here was written between August and December 1816, and it was revised until April 1817. The book was published January 1st 1818 when Mary was 20-years-old. She was only 18 when she conceived the story, as her 19th birthday was on August 30th 1816.
