George Orwell wanted to terrify the world with a vision of a fascist power so overweening as to demand (when needed, situationally mind you) exceptions to the general rules of arithmetic. It's a great scene still, often mimicked or referenced. But I find myself thinking of how much more drawn out and excruciating it would have been for O'Brien to say that there were approximately four fingers visible. Four and change. Four, possibly three or five but Winston, if it makes you happy, we'll agree that it's four. For now. And what is a finger, anyway? Maybe fingers don't even exist. ~Chara

If you wrap a waffle in a TACO is it still a TACO? Is it still a waffle?

Hmmm. What was that club that Republicans used to beat Democrats with every time they made even the most minor and reasonable course correction or change? Ah, yes! Waffling!

#Intro

I’m a wannabe Kiwi who lives in Australia.

Into geek things like #Firefly, #Andor, #Marvel, #WellingtonParanormal #WhatWeDoInTheShadows, #BobsBurgers, #Buffy and a lot of other things.

I’m also a bit of a political junkie about #SocialJustice, #Feminism, #EqualRights and all associated issues.

Mildly obsessed with women’s football (#WeAreMatildas) - beyond excited for the 2023 Women’s World Cup.

Also love #art and #cats. And #waffling.

It’s nice to be here.
