actually, it’s a few days short of 2 months, I think.
anyway, my roomate wants to move back in with her dad when she starts college again, so it seems I’ll have to do the same for the time being. I can’t fight my wallet.

These space colony concept drawings were the result of collaboration between Princeton physicist Gerard O’Neill, the NASA Ames Research Center and Stanford University in the 1970’s. They held a series of space colony summer studies which explored the possibilities of humans living in giant orbiting spaceships.
WOW.

I Hate it When
I’m reading essays I like and then—
Telling a child they have a particular ethnic or religious identity is one of the stickiest things you can tell them. Almost anything else you tell a kid, they can change their mind about later when they start to think for themselves.
For the rest of the section, all he talks about how religion is control. Ethnicity is never brought up again.
It’s a little troubling.
I’m assuming what he meant by “ethnic identity” is the idea that “if you were born this race, you have to “act like that forever and ever amen.” And that’s obviously what you do when you have an “ethnic identity” in the first place, because you’re not “default” (read:white. you can’t be fully americanized if you’re not white (or at least white-enough looking)). For most people, this means acting like a stereotype because they are true (for reasons I do not feel like even starting to get into. Shit’s fucked, essentially, and everybody hates people who don’t look white enough because why not lol, it’s a pretty popular thing). So now ethnicity=ignorant stereotype of culture. Because that’s we are, those with “ethnicity”. Ignorant. Only white people have “actual” culture or “actual” knowledge. The way they want their lives to be should be how *we*should want our lives to be.
When you put it like that there’s only one of two choices — totally and completely embrace the stereotype and think of it as a souce of pride, Or to totally turn their backs on their culture and embrace white people’s pop culture and wonder why they’re disappointments to their parents. When you try to apply that middle class 1950’s american dream shit to first/second generation immigrant cultures that are totally removed from the circumstances that created that bizarre dream in the first place, fucked up shit happens.
