I started reading Gone with the Wind but tbh my heart has not been really in it. So much of it reads like rich white ppl romanticising the Southern US and the whole plantation life, when all of that is wrong, built on stolen land by slaves stolen from their homelands. Does it get better?

I'm looking up to the night sky right now, seeing a golden crescent moon. A chilly winter wind timidly caresses my cheek. God, how beautiful the world is and what a gift it is to be alive

Throwing Ukraine at Moscow's feet will do nothing to appease the warmonger in office. A German newspaper remarked that Chamberlain attempted a similar appeasement plan by giving half of Czechoslovakia to Hitler, trying to prevent a larger conflict. WW2 still began a year later. I agree with them.

My trans friends deserve to grow old. So fucking old they'll have deep laugh and smiling wrinkles and hair so white the snow would look grey next to it. They deserve to love and be who they are without fear of anyone persecuting them. Their lives have meaning and value. The world is better with them

"What happened, nobody knows. Some say the Gods grew angry at the Mages becoming lazier as the Golems did all work and decided to punish them. Others argue that the Mages stopped thinking, causing their Mana to congeal and thus start the cataclysm. The city and its vast knowledge were lost forever."
"There is a myth about lost a city inhabited by Mages who had created a realm so advanced they stood out among the rest. This city was famous for its Golems which were said to be so skilled they could write books themselves. One night however it happened: The entire population turned into statues."
