I am a Marxist and someone who enjoys labeling people by their ideological dispositions ;)
I'm making my whole identity about yaoi now. Time to fujo out (whatever that means)

Oh God, I'm reading Canadian Bolsheviks by Ian Angus and I'm getting Trotskyist vibes from the writing. As I understand it from the intro, he's saying that the reason the Canadian party failed was because of... Stalinism? Which...um. okay.

Your workout music is Led Zeppelin. I listen to white noise. We are not the same.

Ellison shoulda called the book "I have no can opener but I must scream." More true to people's experience of life. Mouths? Lots of people have mouths. But when you don't have a can opener? Boy, do you want to scream.

capital recalibrated itself towards wokeness in the 2020s to keep the engine going. they set up diversity committees to stop people from yelling at them but then a bunch of people who make $700k a year working at think tanks decided it was a real cultural project and now you have to read articles.

4 AM posting. Time to write something really clever and unihibited by the supression of conscious lucidity.

Uh-oh! Looks like Somebody's run out of toilet paper! (It's my neighbour. I'm watching with my binoculars. He has a pained expression on his face. He's calling his wife. Pause. Pause. She's not coming. He sighs. His shoulders visibly sag beneath the crushing realization. Oh. Oh. He's crying. Oh.)

My first online date is tomorrow and I don't really know what people do in these situations? I'm going to follow the age-old advice and start with a solid, firm handshake.

Pale Fire is such an insane book. Love it. Nabokov, you're a legend.

I've had to curate my internet experience over the years; extensions to remove recommendations and Shorts from YouTube, for instance; and I still think my attention span is not great. But after watching my cousing using TikTok... Holy shit. I now truly understand the term "brain rot."

I'm starting to read The Motorcycle Diaries by Che Guevara, and holy shit when I open up the book it's so jarring seeing glowing reviews from Time, The Guardian, and The Los Angeles Times. The Washington Post's is the most insulting: "A Latin American James Dean or Jack Kerouac." UM.

You can insult me, call me names...but don't you DARE insult my citation methods. I'll KILL YOU.¹

When people cannot come together (i.e., what we refer to as "loneliness") because the forces of capital have commodified and turned public spaces into private ones, they cannot affect political change. This serves the interests of people for whom political change would be—to put it mildly—bad.

This post better not end up with someone drawing fanart of Marx pregnant, it BETTER not. When I come back here in five minutes, I BETTER not see a picture of Engels holding onto Marx's full-to-bursting belly and looking up at him with tears in his eyes. I BETTER not. Y'all are messed up. Get help.

What's up? Oh me? Nothing much. Just drinking hot water. Yeah. Without a tea bag. Just hot H2O. Yeah. I'm a real sicko.

Oh? The grass is always greener on the other side, is it? Well, at least you have a lawn; I live on a moat of lava. So the analogy doesn't really apply now, does it?
