Luke and aftermath are awesome but that really is not the read I got from that story.
Yes, the ai almost gets the kid killed. But it also helps two kids who otherwise would not have the courage get together. And the outcome is to use the ai as a tool for what it is good for, not the control your entire life. They stop using it to communicate with each other but do use it for date ideas.
Which is how the LAD games handle most things. Moderation and caution are good but also take a chance. And don’t force your diaper fetish on others.
Also, if we are factoring in the whole LAD megaverse, it likely intentionally endangered the kid so that Joryu would save him and strengthen the bond between the boy and girl.
Good Morning Mastodon! Hope you’re all ok? Today I’m currently reading Mad Sisters of Esi by Tasha Mehta for some beautiful weird fiction. What are you reading at the moment?
The story of one woman who Israel calls terrorist and prisoner. This is not the exception, it's the norm. She was released in the hostage deal. She was moving furniture, her car malfunctioned, caught fire. Instead of helping her get medical care, Israeli soldiers watched her burn, accused her of terrorism & arrested, interrogated & tortured her.
I've just ordered it - but it seems an important book to learn about a massive injustice. Israelis are taken as hostage for a few weeks & ppl are rightly upset. BUT when Palestinians are accused of terrorism for waving a flag, for being a 12 year old boy, for saying on social media they mourn for gaza, or a car breaking down - suffer torture in Israeli jail - fingers cut off - those people SAY NOTHING.
1/2 Enraged Israeli spokes people are a very common sight on Western TV these days, but this exchange between Sky's Kay Burley and Israel's Eylon Levy seem to set a new low.
Speaking to Levy about Israel's decision to handover 150 Palestinian prisoners in exchange for 50 Israeli children and babies, Burley said she had spoken “to a hostage negotiator” about the discrepancy in the numbers. He made the comparison between the 50 hostages that Hamas has promised to release as opposed to the 150 prisoners that are Palestinians and Israel has said that it will release, [...] Does Israel not think that Palestinian lives are valued as highly as Israeli lives?"
#BanalityOfEvil [repost] “A Day in the Life of Abed Salama: A Palestine Story”
About the Palestinian children Israel sent to jail. An edited extract from “A Day in the Life of Abed Salama: A Palestine Story”, which was recently published by Allen Lane.
“In her work as a doctor with #UNRWA, the UN relief and works agency for Palestinian refugees, Huda saw things that made her afraid for her sons. She had witnessed a soldier shoot a boy who threw a stone at a tank. The soldiers stopped her from going to help him as he fell to the ground. At home in Sawahre, listening to the nightly news of West Bank killings and closures, she had trouble sleeping. She knew Hadi was out throwing stones.”
Amazon US are doing a Black Friday deal on The Sandman book 1. 560 pages down from $29.99 to $13.40. Obviously I'd prefer that you bought it from an independent book or comic shop. And obviously I know some of you are on a budget where this could make a difference.
