Gathering Firewood by Yurii Skandakov, 1964
It really says something that a lot of monogamous people consider polyamorous and aromantic to be "opposites" but every polyam person I know took one look at aromantics and said "they're just like me for real"
My bearded dragon is fascinated by the falling snow outside. He keeps going to the window to stare at it. He woke up from brumating to look at the snow.

Leftists who are committed to the idea that the PRC can meaningfully be called a socialist nation are the intellectual equivalent of someone who has been forced to take a poison pill their entire life and finally decided to solve the problem by switching the pharmacy they get the pill from.
I love how liberal criticisms of Marxism always boil down to a game of peekaboo where capital moves the worst forms of exploitation to different nonwhite countries and liberals can’t see it anymore and assume it disappeared. It’s falling for the most basic illusions that run throughout Marx’s entire body of work
“Nooooo the slavery in chocolate supply chains is just an exception to our totally fair and consensually free exchange of goods”
“Nooooo China is an evil socialist nation wdym our global capitalist economy depends on the exploitation of 300 million intraregional Chinese migrant workers who are barred from forming independent labor unions and arrested for demanding better living conditions”
“International trade is about nations exchanging goods based on comparative advantage. No I will not look into how that means one company shipping its products around the globe and different stages of the production process to countries where workers are more easily controlled and violently suppressed. It’s actually good because it means I can buy a temu haul every week”
"friends don't look at each other like that" well okay you coward you do whatever you want however i WILL look at my friends like they're the most important thing in the world. i love them with my whole heart and i will hold their hand and stare at the stars not because i wanna fuck them but because they mean the world to me and i care about them. fuck you
I bring a passionate 18th style platonic attraction to the function that the amatonormitivity/relationship hierarchy fans can’t handle.
"Friends dont look at friends that way" COWARD. I look at my friends with awe in my eyes, my chest is filled with love, im glowing because i get to be near my friends. I look at my friends and i would give them my everything. SO SKILL ISSUE, look at your friends with all the love that you have
liking someone platonically is so embarrassing like. yeah i admire you. yeah i think about you all the time. yeah i look forward to every time i see you even if it's only for a minute. yeah it's all platonic and yeah i couldn't explain this because it'd sound romantic. fucking hell
The US State Department under Donald Trump has been accused of instigating what amounts to a travel ban after they suspended the processing of trans Americans’ passport applications. The suspension follows an executive order signed by President Donald Trump last week, which mandated federal recognition of only two sexes: male and female. The executive order also maintained that “these sexes are not changeable”, leading to government agencies being forced to apply the policy to all government-issued identification. As such, passport applications where the applicant’s gender is different to their biological sex at birth have not been processed, raising concerns about their access to essential services.

If your conception of socialism stopped developing in the first half of the 20th century I don’t think you’re serious about actual political transformation.
Idk of a single left-wing thinker who hasn’t explicitly talked about the need to develop theories and adapt them to on the ground conditions, and if you are somehow convinced your blorbo who died before decolonization, the rise of neoliberalism, and all the radical transformations since 1955 found the perfect pathway to socialism that will never need to be critiqued or altered you don’t have a political project you have a religion.
Clinging to century old ideological debates and grudges and not incorporating the valid critiques of different traditions is like running into a brick wall head first over and over again and convincing an every shrinking number of your friends that eventually it’ll make a door appear
from the Lavender and Red Union, a group of communists who wrote this in 1975.
"GAY LIBERATION IS IMPOSSIBLE WITHOUT SOCIALIST REVOLUTION. SOCIALISM IS INCOMPLETE WITHOUT GAY LIBERATION."
no matter how you examine a bar of chocolate, there's no indication of the exploitation that went into creating it — not an atom that screams "I came into being through slavery!" and yet, the social relations of slavery and unequal exchange are facts of its existence. in the capitalist world, we're presented with an endless series of commodities, while the social relationships behind their production and distribution are hidden from us. when people understand the misery that others are forced into in order to shave $0.5 off the production costs of every t-shirt, sofa, or TV they purchase, they often feel rage at the capitalist system. that's why we must continually expose such things. don't let them be hidden from view
btw if you are friends with someone and you have the kind of dynamic where you can tease each other you also need to be nice. just so we're all aware. you also have to be nice with your words on top of it. like with your words. use your words. you should tell them with your words when you like something about them. if you are scared of being too sincere or vulnerable that is not an excuse to not be nice to someone. also you should work on that. ok are we all on the same page

Engels on “Social Murder”
how are you people alive.
At work there used to be a sign on a few things that would say like "if this bubbles, run for your life" and "if you hear thumping run for cover" and "bears can and will kill you" and really in general I wish the park service was more willing to say "you are not at home, you are not at disneyland, you can die here and you can die so badly your family will have to bury an empty casket because no one will risk their own life to collect your idiot corpse."
This morning I had like the lesbian equivalent of that part from the Brian David Gilbert cooking video about getting called Boss haha
"trans people deserve love respect and dignity" - sweet nothing, pablum, easy to co-opt into nonperformative statements, it's giving Labour Party
"Public Official X's specific decision to Y is completely unevidenced and is harming trans people. Public Official X should resign or face consequences." - unco-optable, focused on justice, deliciously angry
