Romolla had the idea to try something different and do a more structured, scripted video style and we worked over the weekend to create this and I'm super happy with it. Please consider giving it a look and letting us know what you think of this type of video!

youtu.be/knJhYASboZE new video! another fave of mine by gramsci, about who is an intellectual, and what the function of an intellectual is. highly recommend this one for getting a good glimpse into how gramsci thinks (and why i particularly love his analysis!)

One of my favourite people in the FGC as a whole was sweetxjam. I have so many memories of him that I'll never forget, and losing him so early especially breaks my heart. I'm struggling to fully express how meaningful he was to me beyond that - I cannot say it enough that I have so much love for him

I was going to write an incredibly long and sappy eulogy because if there's one person I've been blessed to meet in my life, it's sweetxjam. He wouldn't want that though. So instead, here's a picture that sums up our brotherhood LOL. Rest easy, my friend. I love you.

sweetxjam and I wearing our "i heart hot moms" shirts, never to be seen again after their debut. Grand opening, grand closing LOL

I don't know if anyone else has posted this yet, but sweetxjam passed away this weekend. If y'all could give something to the gfm for his family that would be great. www.gofundme.com/f/in-loving-...

read this parenti article and it felt like my past and future truly clashed

Lately we have been hearing a great deal about "blowback." But the real menace we face today is global rollback. The goal of conservative rulers around the world, led by those who occupy the seats of power in Washington, is the systematic rollback of democratic gains, public services, and common living standards around the world.

My worldview cracked the fuck open during the section on "common sense" and how people reach it. Not only did it help me understand why my politics have changed over time, but also to be more conscious of potential blindspots.

(in the family group chat): that wont matter. without radical change all of this is meaningless in fifteen years. we have no idea how dire things are (in the communist group chat): they should make a turn based final fantasy again with the two minute summon animations

i was thinking of this bit from litvinov's (the USSR foreign ambassador pre-molotov) speech to the 1938 league of nations assembly in response to the sudeten crisis, and boy is it ever timeless

There is, however, another conception, which recommends as the height of human wisdom, under cover of imaginary pacifism, that the aggressor be treated with consideration, and his vanity be not wounded. It recommends that conversations and negotiations be carried on with him, that he be assured that no collective action will be undertaken against him, and no groups or blocs formed against him—even though he himself enters into aggressive blocs with other aggressors —that compromise agreements be concluded with him, and breaches of those very agreements overlooked ; that his demands, even the most illegal, be fulfilled ; that journeys be undertaken, if necessary, to receive his dictates and ultimatums ; that the vital interests of one State or another be sacrificed to him; and that, if possible, no question of his activity be raised at the League of Nations—because the aggressor does not like that, takes offence, sulks. Unfortunately, this is just the policy that so far has been pursued towards the aggressors ; and it has had as its consequence three wars, and threatens to bring down on us a fourth. Four nations have already been sacrificed, and a fifth is next on the list. In view of such lamentable results of this policy, we had the right to expect that there would be recognition of its mistaken character, and of the necessity of replacing it by some other policy. Instead we have heard proposals here to make the old policy permanent. Hitherto the aggressor reckoned with the possible reaction of the League of Nations, and showed a certain hesitation in preparing his aggression, carrying it out gradually and in proportion to his growing certainty that there would be no reaction at all. But now we are asked to reassure him beforehand that he need fear nothing at the hands of the League, and that the League henceforward will not apply to him either military or even economic and financial sanctions. At the very worst, he is threatened with moral condemnation, and that, …

youtu.be/tKQO2_fjIgY new video! on the initial reforms about sexuality, womens rights, and childrens rights in the RSFSR. when you realize this pamphlet is 101 years old but sounds more modern than actual political discourse on these subjects nowadays, it hits a v particular way!
