I love your style!

I wanted to buy $100 of bitcoin in HS and couldn’t figure out how. Would have been like $60,000,000 :ccc

I’ve only read the two, but I remember being skeeved out when I read it and feeling very validated when I read Galatea.

So it’s acceptable for Elselvier et al to milk academics blind? At the minimum, authors should not be charged.

I think Richard Powers is a sex weirdo who comes up with elaborate novel structures to contain his tulpa gf’s in. I was really put off by the woman in the last short story who goes from bimbo to sexy ghost. That felt prototypical for how he sees women. He also admits to stalking and creeping on one of his grad students in his autofiction Galatea 2.2. The short stories were beautiful but the novel itself felt poorly executed with a lot of cut plot threads.

Alright but look at how much they pay the authors. What other business pays ZERO dollars for their core product?

The poorly-animated cast of the spin-off series barely resembles the characters we know and love

Not seeing the downside lol

sounds nice. very fragrant

such an awful thing doesn’t need to be made to high standrads.

please do everything you can to sink that island into the sea. this is henois.

Ultimate B-egg-el: everything bagel, garden veggie cream cheese, slice of sharp cheddar cheese, pickled beets, sprouts, arugula, it’s friday would you like a fried egg, vinagrette.

It seems like a lot of things you want to do on your phone are unnecessary. Why not just use the banking websites in your browser at home? Why not just keep a paper calendar?

Great story! I did the math based on the author’s statement that the american equivalent (not being made at scale) is 5x more at $37,000 and all total they paid about $7,000 to get the truck from the factory to Florida.

For context, a '94 Ford Ranger costed $10,000.

Well you see the president is elected democratically unlike in Germany where the Nazis were never…oh…

Henry Cavill feels like a caricature of a nerd. Happy for him!

This is like the last 2008 style meme produced

He should command Joe to end military aid. Like literally put the main in a crisis of faith idk.

It is fantastic as a revolutionary anti-racist, anti-imperialist history of the US Empire. I recommend it to virtually everyone on those grounds. However, his ideological basis is heavily informed by the widespread pessimism that followed the collapse of the US New Left anti-colonial struggles of internally oppressed nations (as Sakai characterizes). He embraces a brand of Third Worldism whose main practical application is to give up on revolutionary activity in the imperial core, since all workers are labor aristocrats who benefit more from imperialism than they are exploited by Capitalism.

While the degree of exploitation of workers in the imperial core is unquestionably lower, while White workers unquestionably benefit immensely from racism, we cannot accept defeat as a given.

The primary contradiction in the world is between Imperialist Nations and Colonized Nations. “Leftists” in the imperial core cannot wait for the comrades in the Global South to liberate themselves, we must be active strugglers for their liberation and our own. We must believe revolution is possible to hold any attitude other than ‘lie down and rot’.

Also watching white people squirm reading is really fun. A comrade’s conservative, racist sibling has possibly the only actual ‘SJW Marxist Professor’ in the US who is making the class read it. The comrade has been giving us updates on the growth of their sibling’s growing guilt and political conciousness.
