Hah! the words. 

A giant of the political left, Rosa Luxemburg is one of the foremost minds in the canon of revolutionary socialist thought. But she was much more than just a thinker. She made herself heard in a world inimical to the voices of strong-willed women. She overcame physical infirmity and the prejudice she faced as a Jew to become an active revolutionary whose philosophy enriched every corner of an incredibly productive and creative life—her many friendships, her sexual intimacies, and her love of science, nature and art. Always opposed to the First World War, when others on the German left were swept up on a tide of nationalism, she was imprisoned and murdered in 1919 fighting for a revolution she knew to be doomed. In this beautifully drawn work of graphic biography, writer and artist Kate Evans has opened up her subject’s intellectual world to a new audience, grounding Luxemburg’s ideas in the realities of an inspirational and deeply affecting life.

Outside the Northampton Leiderkrantz! What a beautiful night with these two ding dongs. Pete has my own PJB 8-bit made for the site! Notice the lovely grey hair, pixilated tattoos, freakishly giant feet. The second half of ‘19 is looking WAY up. (#7of2019, 6/22/19)

So Ringers Roost has been good to us but they were SO packed on a Saturday night that we played outside to practically no one. Paid to practice is alright. Played with rods and brushes the whole night and played Wagon Wheel, Tennessee Whiskey and I Shall Be Released from Bob Dylan for the first time. Always expanding the pallet...that includes peach heffeweizen. Hey that’s a PJB event on Untappd! YES! (#6of2019 5/25/19)
