Multiple Crises

also when someone realizes they're petit bourgeois or bourgeois and starts self-flagellating or trying to conceal the nature of their family's relationship to capital it doesn't help anyone. if you recognize your class interests are not aligned with the working class and you are a marxist and want to be in solidarity with workers, you become a class traitor. you work toward changes that benefit workers and not your own class. you align yourself with working people at the expense of your own class. engels was from a bourgeois family, so was fidel castro, and both dedicated their lives to being class traitors. if more bourgeois people were class traitors the world would be a very different place lol

hyperfixating on a fictional woman who went underdeveloped in canon is literally FUN and the 80-90% of fandom people who only do the same for background character men have no idea of the degree to which they are fucking missing out

I do think I want kids and I’ve been thinking about kids a lot and I think one of the scarier parts of it is navigating gender. I’m not too concerned about raising strong and empathetic boys who respect women because it seems pretty easy, you show them Grace Jones as a child. All the strong and empathetic boys I know who respect women have mentioned being very impressed by Grace Jones at a young age. Raising daughters is scarier because you don’t want to control them but it also seems really important to keep them away from creepy older men who will invariably try to groom them into being some sort of sex object, from what I’ve seen this is very effective at derailing a woman’s life for 5-20 years if she falls into it. I think showing the daughters Grace Jones probably helps with that, because she has so much inherent dignity in her demeanor, her beauty is almost an afterthought which is the way it should be for women. Non-binary kids I don’t know too much about because the cultural scripts aren’t super developed for that yet but I figure you probably have to let the child direct you, and show them Grace Jones.

I think it's actually essential to children's moral development to be exposed to short stories moderately beyond their reading level where a bunch of fucked up shit happens and then instead of offering a moral lesson or any sort of emotional or narrative resolution it just ends.

need a lesbian who's ev— (remembers i don't believe in evil) — need a lesbian whose material conditions incentivize her to be mean to me

it might seem like the zipper merge is hopelessly dependent on the goodwill of the driver- after all, if you can't trust anyone else to merge correctly then doing the right thing will get you stuck for ages. but you need to adjust the payoff matrix to account for me. you assume that denying the zipper is without cost, because you assume that if you act decisively your fellow drivers will be cowed. but i have faith, and i have justice. i do not fear death because martyrs do not truly die, and i will GLADLY use MY CAR and MY OWN FRAGILE BODY as a SINGLE INSTRUMENT of that faith and that justice, a HOLY SWORD. I WILL KILL YOU. I WILL KILL BOTH OF US AND ONLY YOU WILL DIE

sometimes i think i can probably pass as masc and maybe even as a straight guy but any time i engage in conversation with a kind stranger i have a demeanor not unlike a princely rich girl archetype in a 2000s manga and frequently extend my hand in an elegant manner which has caused a number of drunken individuals on nights out to kiss my hand as if i were a beautiful ojousama and not a greasy mechanic

eating would be fine if it was only a recreational activity. instead, its a horrible sisiphean nightmare and you need to do it every day without fail on threat of pain and death
