Do not take Political Science. I am serious. Dead serious. Mostly dead. But also serious.

I’m curious if other communists have like a religious relationship to their political beliefs for lack of a better word? That’s not a good word to use but I don’t know how else to describe it. I’m solidly atheist but all of the feelings and emotions religious people talk about, revelation and spiritual connection to community and so on are all things I experience pretty regularly and I interpret those feelings as fundamentally communist. the way I take in and absorb information in particular feels revelatory in a religious sense. I’m pretty sure this is fairly common with MLs but I’m curious about it in general

actually if goncharov were real it would never live up to the standards the insane tumblrinas have built it up to be. there is a triangle of homoeroticism, political commentary, and inevitably tragic in which any live, real adaptation would only conceivably be able to achieve two of to their fullest extent. added on to the fact that this is a film that supposedly is filmed and takes place in the seventies makes the possibility of it truly containing all aspects of what we have made it out to be even more far fetched. however, tumblr has been able to spin gold on far more real and disappointing media than goncharov through its analyses of media such as supernatural, sherlock, and a secret third piece of media that the subsequent creation and analyses of the ‘greatest mafia movie of all time’ goncharov is simply a natural step that tumblr as an ecosystem is willing to take. in this essay i will,

aoki deserves a billion and one knives to the organs but tbh if i showed up to the husband of my ex's ceremony Of Which Was The Same Guy Who Made Me Look Like A Jackass On My Birthday and she was like 'wow youre so charming and sophisticated' after i overheard her calling me a creep and a weirdo On My Birthday i think i wouldve killed myself on the spot in front of everyone so good on him for not doing that I Guess

"Oh it would have been more satisfying if the humans had invented a technology which defeated the Martians rather than have them killed off by accident just when humanity's impotence in the face of disaster seems to be confirmed". I

To me that's just a fancy way of saying "Yeah but humans could totally handle the Martians and the writer has a duty to reassure the audience of that!"

Sir we cannot even handle climate change and I'm sorry to tell you that it's not entirely due to a lack of technological expertise

ok i don't under stand how one of the defining traits of conservatism is "wanting a smaller government and not liking big/controlling governments" yet other key features of conservatives are wanting to control the media wanting to make certain marriages illegal wanting to make highering certain people illegal making certain people illegal etc etc

getting back into reading for fun after not really doing it for years is weird

like i remember how i used to absolutely devour books when i was a kid and used to read almost constantly. and now it feels like it takes me forever just to read a few pages.

it just feels very…odd

History and government is so much easier to learn and study than physics, I wish I wasn’t an engineering major

my hot take:

both the UN and NATO are relics of the cold war.

I'm not going to be outright against the UN, I do think it could have its benefits, but right now it is utterly useless and needs a deep reform. thinking it does something is pure wishful thinking. the security council is completely outdated. there's the permanent members Russia and China (communist aligned), US and UK (capitalist aligned), and France to solve draws. it made sense during the cold war, it doesn't anymore, it needs a reform.

I am, however, going to be against NATO because 1. military bad and 2. I 100% believe it should have disbanded when the cold war ended and the Warsaw Pact disbanded; right now, it just serves the hegemon and has the potential to be a catalyst for major wars (like Ukraine-Russia isn't a proxy war (/s), and I don't think the US' interest in Israel is purely out of the kindness of their heart but sure).

I admire my crush's dedication to her craft. Like, yes, please. Give us what you want. I don't care what it is— I'm sure it's beautiful. My life has literally been in flames lately and I feel like I'm at war with everyone and everything around me. But every time I am reminded of her I do a little dance and a little giggle.

(Also, I don't need her to be here to feel her, you know. I see Warrior Nun, I'm reminded of her. I see my journal, I'm reminded of her. I see the bulk of romantic letters that I wrote for her, I'm reminded of her.)

I like the idea of the potential right now, of the fantasy. It is what keeps me from going insane (or maybe I already am) so let me have it. 😋

There's beauty in falling in love with the possibility. Tragedy, too, but I'm focusing on what makes me feel good right now. Dante Alighieri did it; so, will I.
