I am so grateful for my Communist teachers.

Ryoma from the anime series By the Grace of Gods is so pure.
For everyone doing comparative headline analysis, another entry
I met Trump in 1994, and he seemed a bit Tony Clifton even then, but now he's really Tony Clifton, especially when he loses a room, and he's losing rooms more and more these days.
What is the point of Trump doing a Tony Clifton imitation for Black journalists?
Cowboy Bebop is one of my favorite anime series but I don't give a shit about the Spike/Julia romance subplot.
Fellow actors: You may see notices for some high profile video games that casting will say are "grandfathered" or "safe harbor" projects. This is just a loophole leftover from the pre-merger AFTRA contract. THIS IS SCAB WORK. Plus you'll have ZERO protections from AI reuse of your work. DON'T SCAB!

Spoilers for the anime series Wise Man's Grandchild to follow. . . . . . . . . . . . . . They set up a spoiled aristocrat rival for the hero early on, then made the rival over-the-top awful, then even more awful, then he turned into a demon and the hero cut off his head. Not what I was expecting.
Looks like I'm still on Daniel Goldman's Hitlets list (although his account is suspended), as well as "pathetic", Centrist morons, Violence/Harassment, Politically Bad, Dipshits to ignore, and Zionists.
I found a site that shows which BlueSky lists you are on. Let's check out mine! clearsky.app
It is a staggering waste that so much creativity is used just to make a few thousand people rich.
"Technology is political, and its design is political. It is not created in the service of humanity at large. It is created by capitalists for capitalists. It is not in the service of humanity at large. It is in the service of profit. And, you know, that can be different." —General Intellect Unit

1/ Don't the pundits understand that the actual phrase "kitchen table issues" is for internal messaging, but sounds stupid and canned when spoken out loud to the public. It makes a bad cliché.
CNN and MSNBC and FOX cannot host adequate Presidential debates because their ideological positions cannot provide for substantive debate.
I'm reluctant to read Althusser because he was a wife-murdering piece of shit. If that means I have gaps in my knowledge, so be it. Also, there is no epistemological break in Marx's thought.
Guillotines but instead of beheadings we liquidate the assets of huge corporations that have committed egregious malfeasance and distribute the money to their victims.
The rabbis of the Talmud discuss whether or not, if a man writes a bill of divorce on the body of a live animal, the divorce is kosher. Jews are divided between those who find this funny, and those who forbid themselves and others from finding this funny. May the latter never govern the rest of us.
You don't love Helvetica. You love Akzidenz-Grotesk.
Israel is going through what the USA will go through in a second term of Donald Trump's presidency.
I know I annoy people when I say "Toyreh", but saying Toyreh has better mouth feel than saying Torah.
My friends in middle school were obsessed with Victorian pornography, especially The Pearl, and, reading that shit now, it's so fucking delightfully pervy (although sometimes crossing the line).
I love that Luanne Platter joined the Communist Party. The Texas branch must be lit.
Imagine objecting that the Olympics, the international sporting event, is "globalism".
Ben Garrison is having a normal one
I was pretty active in the DSA in Boston for a few years, but I resigned when I saw their internal comms about October 7th. Kill the weirdo Trotskyist microsect mentality living in your head.
This is exactly why I'm not a DSA member. "DSA IC Congratulates President Maduro on His Victory" - really?
