I’m just here for that bangin’ pizza party. I don’t need to actually feed my kids.

It sucks. I ended up emailing him after I saw your comment and they did say that a few people had to reschedule so no decision yet.

I have not. I just sent a follow up email but I’ve been at this for a while so can pretty much assume I didn’t get it.

Happy birthday homie.

Had one of the best interviews in my time as a wage slave last week and really felt like I hit it out of the park. They said I’d know on Friday. Well here it is Monday and still donno. Should I keep holding out or just blow my brains out now get it over with?

On a more cheerful note, I’m finally starting my dive into non-ML leftist theory and started Anarchy Works by peter Gelderloos and it’s been a pretty enjoyable read. The format is basically Idea, historical example, and synthesis of ideas with praxis for each chapter. But it’s clear and easy to digest. I’m 1/4 in and started Saturday and that with barely any time to read and I’m not a fast reader normally.

I’m pretty sure I’m definitely not an anarchist but I like that I am developing a fuller understanding of the concepts. I do like the idea of little pocket anarchist communities popping up all the time tho because even if they never last, it does show that humans can still be communal for at least a moment.

Might take a sidestreet after this book and read up on syndicalism since that’s also piqued my interest recently.

Those fake bacon bits that are bright red and crunchy that people put on their salads and such are made from soy. The real stuff that is chewy is def still pork.

Don’t forget Monster energy drinks! /s sort of. I take a supplement though lol

I can’t fucking wait either.

Gentle remind that the US was perfectly content with Nazi Germany for most of the war.

It is Texas so yeah.

Say what??? Like do the shift codes work?

Each of my 4 thumb keys are tap for space, tab, enter, and backspace. But I hold one of those keys and I enter a dedicated layer for navigation, a 10-key number pad, a custom symbol layer, and my media and F-keys.

It does take a bit of getting used to but the trade off is holding an extra key compared to having to lift my hand off of home row and moving to arrows, number row, number pad, etc. I basically never have to look at where my hands are and still retain 100% functionality of a full size board.

I tried watching 40 Year Old Virgin a few months back and just no…

I’m glad western leaders never did horrible shit.

Haha let’s go!

Fair enough.

From my last job, US factory dairy cows only go for about 4-5 years before they are turned into burgers.

Also I usually get the years part mixed up because God damn has it been 22 years?

Q: What’s the difference between 9/11 and a cow?

A: You can’t milk a cow for 22 years.

If it isn’t called The Giant Spoon I want no part in it.

Principles of Communism by Engels is old but it’s actually a very easy and straight forward read. It’s quick too. He lays it out in a Q&A format that covers basically all basic questions we all had starting out. It’s so easy to digest that I actually recommend that over the Manifesto, and alongside Blackshirts and Reds as the latter covers communism’s history which I think is pretty important as well.
