What the cinnamon toast fuck is this? I'd tag it as a public art installation and tag the crossing separately as unmarked.
As the saying goes, "graphene can do anything except leave the lab"
Am I misreading this, or is there something about lust that's specifically ADHD?
I think this is a really interesting take. Communism doesn't mean taking a vow of poverty or being a good person, but I can see how it would seem hypocritical to not spend that money funding support for labor rather than hoarding it.
It's probably worth exploring why people over 14 listen to his music and his politics. One interesting reason is people who resonate with the emotional core of the music, but disagree or don't understand his politics. Another is people who genuinely feel that violence may be necessary to bring about communism. Additionally, some people feel catharsis listening to violent music/media without supporting violence.
I think it's worthwhile to empathize with people you disagree with. It can help better understand their viewpoint and solidify yours by contrast.
I'm curious, do you have any recommendations for music made by leftists who aren't rich and don't support violence? It's ok if not, I'm just interested in expanding my listening.
Yeah, I started meds for this and it just... Turned off. Not much else happened and it was like I had taken off a heavy backpack I didn't know I was wearing.

Some version of this concept has floated (pun intended) around for a while. Thing is that plastics are an energy dense "food source" and once something evolves a way to metabolize it they'll have a huge advantage.
It's like how glyphosate tolerance has appeared in weed plants already. Evolution is always looking for an angle.
Oh jeez, the security nightmares I've seen here keep me up at night. You're doing good work, fixing what you could from the inside of where you worked.
...now? I feel like climate has been the "old reliable" culture war issue when climate denialists need to generate buzz on a slow news day going back at least 20 years.
No, you might be a primitivist, feudalist, syndicalist, or any of many other ways of organizing society. What you adopt will depend on your values and how you perceive the relationship between people and capital. Ultimately the labels are helpful up to a point, because the application of theory, or praxis, will manifest in ways to meet the need of your time.
Just to get ahead of it, capitalist can mean both one who supports capitalism as a way to organize society, and one who owns capital. From context it's clear we mean the former definition.
One thing people forget is long distance fees. Cell phones basically did away with long distance fees, and we're better for that. However, landlines have some notable benefits:
We're still way better overall with cell phones, but something was lost to get them.
