La Roche-Posay Lipikar Triple Repair Moisturizer once or twice a day, especially after a showering using a gentle cleanser helps mine a lot, but I have to stay on top of it. Shit sucks.

Best I could find on the matter. As of now, no one really knows why they were snubbed. All of the accusations against China are purely speculation, and I find it unlikely that it's China's involvement since there have been a bunch of issues with the Hugos in the past few years esp. around LGBTQ stuff.

Progressives should not make the same mistake that Ernst Thälmann made in 1932. The leader of the German Communist Party, Thälmann saw mainstream liberals as his enemies, and so the center and left never joined forces against the Nazis.

Why did he see mainstream liberals as his enemy? honk

Why did he see liberals as his enemy, motherfucker!?!? big-honk

My current obsession is Normal Gossip which is mostly just a fun anonymized gossip podcast about real people. They have a slight left bend as their parent company is a worker's coop but it's mostly fun. Highly recommend!

And everyone is free to fight you in court and sue the shit out of you if they find a flaw in your design.

"The law, in its majestic equality, forbids the rich as well as the poor to sleep under bridges, to beg in the streets, and to steal bread."

Wonder how wealth plays into the material reality of going to court. phoenix-think

How many of those lawsuits against eminent domain in the USA were successful btw?

Does anyone know what the cultural connotations of the term Huxiang might be in a somewhat artistic context?

Wear what makes you feel good and confident. Developing a personal style that you like is more important than staying up to date on fashion imo. The people you want to hang with will appreciate that as much if not more than being up to date on fashion.
