Finished Parable of the Sower. I've never read a book like it, which so accurately describes what it's like to be...stuck, on the societal precipice; knowing bad things are to come in the future, but forced to languish in the frustrated present. Waiting, for the bad to get worse.
Just excellent.
Just excellent.

People often talk about how we all live in different bubbles, reinforced by either our material environments (i.e., class) or informational environments (i.e., the internet). People tend to discuss the latter, because it operates on a model of inclusiveness. Everyone has access to the same internet.

I know people want to celebrate Trump's inevitable death, but all I can think about is JD Vance taking his place and I get even more miserable. Senile fascist promptly replaced by a slightly more competent fascist. I'll only be happy when we actually start getting out the guillotine.

starting to feel like there's a direct relationship between the growing obsession with lifestyle hygeine (no drinking, no caffeine, no sex, obsessive working out and looksmaxxing) and the inability to meaningful moral stands on issues of actual import
Cafes across the U.S. are embracing the low- and no-caffeine lifestyle, with options that are a far cry from dusty tea bags and rewarmed decaf. nyti.ms/3XKlqoj

I'm reading Michael Parenti's Dirty Truths, and he writes in 1996 (paraphrased) "that the only communist holdouts [after the fall of the soviet union] were Cuba and North Korea." Did he not consider China communist?

You can't arm-chair philosophy everything. Doing otherwise undercuts the "dialectical materialism" of Marxism itself, turns it into bourgeois idealism. Teaching Marxist-Lenininism is about understanding how at bare-minimum, the party structure is a necessary component of revolution.

We have yet to see a novel that combines the best of the mystery genre and leninist theory. UNTIL NOW.
Between 3 to 4 AM. Policeman's union detectives Vladimir Ulyanov and Alexandra Kollontai are on the scene, lights flicker overhead a dark alleyway. Alexandra kneels over a blood-splattered body.
