“The absence of war alone is not peace. The fighting can be stopped temporarily by international fiat and by the exhaustion of bodies and weapons, but if the political injustice underlying the fighting is not corrected, then we know there will always be more fighting.”

Two years of blood and lead can’t dim the light that broke through these prison walls.

Some of the hottest people are ugly-hot. It’s not the lower end of hotness, but a kind of hotness. Saying this for no reason in particular.

How do people do that thing where they consistently act in their own best interests, seeking to maximize their pleasure and minimize their pain? I can’t do that.

Remember when they told us that a couple RPGs did all this and definitely not the Middle East’s most powerful fucking air force? One of the first of two years of lies, and a whopper at that!

How do you radically transform your life without making any kind of effort or commitments?

There are only two reasons why anything ever happens: 1) everyone is stupid, and/or 2) everyone has to assume that everyone is stupid.

I love Baltimore! When I lived in DC it was only like an hour away so I visited often.

I just want someone to let in so that they can learn all my faults and shortcomings and eventually leave me because of them, cementing their place in my mind as impassible obstacles to any semblance of happiness or peace. To keep me grounded.

The world isn’t ready for my new Happy Birthday song. People would rather stick their heads in the sand than admit there’s a problem. Someday, though, when the time’s right, there will be sweet music again.

Underlying a lot of the uncomradely, undisciplined behavior we see in the Western left is the belief that revolution is really impossible, so people are just staking out a moral posture within capitalism—“Don’t blame me, I voted for communism!” That fatalism needs correcting.

A ceasefire doesn’t end this. “Israel” has carved a grotesque trail of misery through the world, littered with 51m tons of rubble, unexploded ordnance, the limbs, bodies and hopes of beloved millions. It’s polluted the future for generations and invited holy vengeance for its gratuitous cruelty.
