i cannot believe how comically apropos and ironic and terrible the entire thing was ok, get this first off they came in on a sat night and reserved like half of our fucking tables, like a 30-top so we had to rearrange the entire place for their meetup. they show up huddled outside the restaurant like boy scouts waiting to be lead by their troop leader, but like, 34 year old men (who look EXACTLY like you would expect these fucking dorks to look like; seriously, not even gonna describe them, just picture an effective altruist and yes, thats exactly what they ALL looked like, it was surreal) ok anyway then they are directed by their troop leader to be seated and that there's a one drink minimum tonight (the leaders have t shirts that say effective altruism on them.....*uggghhh*), they all proceed to order one drink literally the rest of the night they do not order a single god damn fucking thing. one of them ordered like 2 sides of fries for the entire group and 2 pizzas for the entire group of 30 people. these pizzas feed 2 people a piece... like, maybe they proceeded to complain that we arent filling their waters enough. as i refilled their waters, i had to listen to the most *insufferable* fucking dialogue i have ever heard in my entire adult life. oh my god i was trying so hard not to burst out laughing and/or murder them every time i walked by, like "i was thinking the other day, is it *ethical to even exist???* bro, i dont know, sopheclese says" blah blah fucking blah and prenatalism vs promortalism and holy fucking mother of god dude we get it you listen to the sam harris podcast shut up shut up shut the fuck up before i take that pizza tray and beat your ass to death with it oh my god they then tried to split the check 30 ways, I AM NOT MAKING THIS SHIT UP. YOU CANT, I DARE YOU we were so staffed up (it was a fucking SATURDAY NIGHT) and we made zero fucking money collectively because these fucking pretentious adult children do not understand the most basic fucking etique, norms or standards that pertain to regular fucking civil society, we must have collectively lost $500 in tips for the entire staff because of the people we physically could not seat because of them. they stayed until an hour after closing and we had to physically start removing their tables to get them to leave. i will never forget this night the tip was a pittance obviously, even broke college students tip better, anyway, had to share!

reporting back: after visiting four different local bookstores and not being able to find it anywhere, i caved and just ordered it through the last store i visited. sadly i'm too tired from working doubles all week to even look at it right now.
but i was able to find murray bookchins post-scarcity anarchism for $2, so that was pretty neat.

She doesn't drink, so I'm kind of at sea with what to suggest for a first date. We end up meeting at this gelato shop downtown. We hang out for a bit and chat. I ask if she wants to walk over to this book store. We walk over. We walk to the philosophy section (i'm looking for Baudrillard's Simulacra and Simulation, have not been able to find it anywhere). She picks a random book in the philosophy section. Turns out its a book that has no business being there, a Brothers Grimm book. She opens it. In the back of the book is $700 in cash. We look around thinking, surely, we're on camera and this is some kind of prank. We took it. She buys the book for $6. Then we went to a concert together. I still cannot fucking believe this just happened.

Libs: Evil Tankie Jon Stewart believes the US is to blame for Russia invading Ukraine.
fuckiforgotmypasswor 3 months ago • 100%
I mean, I'm kinda surprised Jon doesn't even point out the obvious provocation of the prospect of Ukraine joining a hostile anti-Russian military alliance that would put hypersonic nuclear missiles 5 minutes from Moscow. Like, literally right on the Russian border.
Uh -- let's entertain a hypothetical in which one of the US's neighboring countries decided to join a hostile military alliance that put nukes 5 minutes off the US coast. Oh right, that happened! 
We responded by invading, trying to assassinate their democratically elected president, and then we blockeded, sanctioned and starved them for generations.
Why not point out that Putin is literally doing what any US president would do, except, like... not nearly as barbaric?

its too bad the rest of his manifesto beyond the first line is borderline incomprehensible, ideologically.
that first line though. shit goes hard.
edit: just realized the first line of a manifesto is probably the only one people will remember. "a specter is haunting Europe..." and "the industrial revolution and its consequences..." are probably too of the most memorable lines of any political text i can remember.

unpopular take (probably): marx and lenin's use of italics was bad and at times makes even their best work borderline unreadable
fuckiforgotmypasswor 4 months ago • 100%
for comparison: over-emphasizing every other word kills the natural flow of reading something yourself (and makes it seem like the writer is talking down to the reader). italics can be helpful for understanding what exactly an author is trying to say by emphasizing a certain word, but when you start forcing emphasis on every other word, and you're doing it every sentence, reading the entire essay/book becomes unnecessarily arduous. I literally cannot read much of Lenin's work, because it reads like a condescending reddit post. when I can find his writing with all the heavy-handed emphasis removed, it reads a lot more naturally.

e: sorry i responded so late to this comment, its a good question
i blame the soviet ministry of propaganda. why they spent so much time editing the Arkady's and Lem's while Lenin was like "*this* is an *apple*, you *eat* it *with* your *mouth* and *then* you chew *it with your teeth!*" bro stop what the fuck

also my oversimplified understanding of why the cold war even happened was that stalin beat the shit out of the nazis for the allies but the west didnt want to give him too much credit or put the soviets on equal footing as economic post war partners, so the US basically engineered a long era of continued weapons manufacturing using the domestic and liberated/defeated nations industries to subsidize and expand our military while also protecting western capital interests from having to compete in a multipolar global economy where international prols would have increased bargaining power and autonomy, am i doodoo brained or is this kinda sorta accurate

i love the jcm 2000 though! literally everyone used the 900 so its cool to have a slightly different tone, also its killer for heavier stuff if you do metal or heavy alternative/hardcore, whatever :) (the guitar in the track is just shitty ableton simulated distortion, the jcm2000 sounds 8 million times better). would totally recommend! i also love that it comes with additional tone control and the double-extra-mega-crunch button to really saturate the distortion, which i leave on pretty much all the time.

Biden just gives a press conference like, “We would like to thank our comrade President Xi for showing us that there are viable alternatives to liberal democracy, and more efficacious paradigms of development than the neoliberal model we’ve been pushing. We would like to congratulate President Xi on ending abject poverty in China, and for his innovative, forward-looking Belt-And-Road Initiative; we would like to join in helping to develop the over-exploited ex-colonial states we damaged through centuries of merciless pillage and racist imperialist programs. Let’s all join forces and start working to mitigate the harm we’ve done in the past, and start building inroads to a sustainable and just future.” That's literally all it would take. And it would be objectively the right thing to do. And yet the world is in such a state of imposed misery that this seems like the most far-fetched reality I can possibly imagine. It's sad.

It's a critical materialist look at the war in Ukraine, and focuses on how people (like me) in the west can maximize our aid to the innocent people trapped in this war. I'm going to try to turn it into a youtube video in the coming days. If you have liberal friends on facebook who might positively respond to a gentle reminder that our paths of direct action aren't limited to just sending a few bucks overseas, I hope you'll consider sharing this. Also thank you so much to those of you who do continue to send aid to reputable humanitarian organizations. Personally I refuse to donate to the military because I can't in good conscious send money to a fund that will directly arm the Amov nazis, because I'll bet anything that when the dust settles on the Russian invasion, a sectarian civil war is what comes next. Edit: Also every time I try to read this piece I fucking hate it, because I know the audience I'm addressing is lib-pilled. If you have any suggestions on how I could improve it, I totally encourage your critical feedback. Fuck imperialism and fuck war... I love you guys
