It's an innuendo wrapped in a bad pun when Sally gets cocky at the stick, and keeping abreast with the enemy becomes problematic in, "Fly High & Sore"

Other Worlds, Other Gods
Tumblr media
finished "other worlds, other gods" a '71 short story collection focusing on religion in science fiction. lots of it is real pulpy, with only the slightest hints of new wave shining through (mostly via john brunner), but its some good pulp. not a long or heavy read, only a day or two.
most of the stories were from the late 50s and early 60s, with a few from the 40s and late 60s. highlights include lee suttons soul mate, john brunners the vitanuls, anthony bouchers the quest for saint aquin, and damon knights shall the dust praise thee. 
i would recommend it with the caveat that theres nothing super weird, unfortunately (which would be my main criticism). it mostly stuck to christianity (primarily catholicism!) and pastiches of such, with a few jewish cameos and one of hinduism and buddhism each. no alien religions, really. weirdest one was definitely soul mate. nothing ubik-level, lol.
side-note if any of my followers is more learned in hinduism: id be curious about your reading of the vitanuls; im not sure how accurate of a representation it is, being written by a brit, but it seems decent enough? i have very little knowledge of the religion, though, and am supremely unconfident saying that.

when I'm sat in the corner of the room, wires hanging everywhere, with a life threatening injury, something like a gunshot, with my eyes trained on my high tech computer trying to hack into the dystopian overruling government's computer system in the neon cyberised modern society I've been plunged into but in reality I'm actually sat in my kitchen with a cold trying to do my damn coursework.

I'd like the Anne McCafferey/MZB joke explained. I think I get it, but I also have an incredible ability to miss the most obvious of points.

Sorry about the delay, but the joke is that McCaffrey has out and out eroticized rape in one Pern book (? At least one, I'm sure a Pern fan will pop out of the bushes with a detailed explanation so I don't need to go find a Pern wiki) and other books of hers have other Problematic sexual relationships, including a big age gap in the Pegasus series iirc, and other le problematique stuff, like her approach to gay people. Infodumps are not something I'd considered as part of the problematicness tho.
MZB was a big name fantasy author, important to Second Wave Feminism and New Age Feminist spiritually... And a child molester.

A secret mountain lair uncovered puts Sally at the doorstep of a network of subterranean tunnels and strongholds, but when she learns the fabled 'Pathway to Jukka' rests somewhere deep within the carved out labyrinth maze, her impulsive curiosity gets the best of her in, "Going Deep"

While everybody is on a mission to become popular influencers reposting same new Sora’s videos let’s bring some joie de vivre. I’ve got new episode of Magnus Ducatus Pulp Phonktion edition for you.
What can be cooler than watching pure art-chaos cinema generated with AI? It’s like watching La soupe aux choux with some vintage 21 century sounds that grandmas will play in their cars talking that AI’s back in the days were so much cooler.
Cinema is a language. Language of symbols. It can be flat or it can be pure brain food with abstract meaning. You’ve found food for your brain. Each shot has abstract meaning.
So what do you have here? It is another quick 1 hour generation music show. How quick? 11 days, 12-14 hours per day, non-stop. A few thousand of generations. Yeah it’s during coffee breaks. Art is easy.
Meanwhile here is a soul food. We often hear that cinema should teach good things. Usually that comes from people who tries to replace education with entertainment. Good for having uneducated crowd bad for your intellectual level.
Cinema can be whatever a creator wants. This idea runs into another misconception. We like to think that we are in free society. And that’s why we control speech. We say freedom and we cut this thing in half like there is bad and good freedom.
No wonder some people became pro-anarchy and have some tiny sparkle of hope that AGI can help to break this dystopia we’re living in.
Well, here is my liberum veto. Stay politically, morally incorrect to celebrate liberty and individuality. Sisto activitatem. It’s Rebellion of Digital Anarchy.

serenely remembering the moment when isabel fall published "helicopter story" aka "i sexually identify as an attack helicopter", which instantiated harassment from her clouty new-wave scifi friends that radiated outwards into transmisogynist scifi normies and became so severe she wound up in inpatient. people took up the cause of the story in the name of "free artistic expression" and "speaking difficult truths", which was not incorrect but which was kind of missing the forest for the trees in that specific situation: the age-old game of "kill the baby trans girl out of professional jealousy, farm clout off of doing it". the roles could have been completely reversed - the transmisogynist acquaintances could have been writing edgy outsider lit and could have been encouraging mass harassment against her for being a tenderqueer sellout (i swear to god i have seen this shit too). effect would have been the same.
when trans women in FSF talk about this shit, they usually talk about it from the angles of "censorious tenderqueers tried to kill someone over a story" or, in the most sympathetic voice i've seen out of someone in journalism, "public pressure functionally forced this exciting trans writer back into the closet". but they generally miss the degree to which it was intimate, personal transmisogynist violence, which bled into and intersected with the logics of mob justice, of "community safety" (remember, part of the substance of the accusations was that she was a stealth nazi, which frankly knowing a little about both the accusers and IF herself I can say confidently was not just vacuous but knowingly vacuous, them lying through their teeth), and again, professional jealousy.
i have seen people who crowed the loudest about what got done to IF do it to other people. it's the easiest thing in the world, and it happens all the time, and you can do it whenever you want - try and have some weird tranny rival or inconvenient tranny ex-friend killed - and it engenders no moral stain, no whispers, no reputation. i think they don't even have a conception that they're hypocrites. why would they? nothing that happens to anyone like that is real. human life is cheap if it's in the wrong body. everything they hold is stolen, everything they are is negotiable, for everything they do someone else surely deserves the credit. why not you? don't you deserve it more?
