    my uncle died of coronavirus

    I didn't know him that well so truthfully his passing isn't a huge personal loss for me, but the gravity of the pandemic becomes so much heavier when eventually someone you know dies from it

        thank you, right now what's mostly bumming me out is thinking about how my aunt (his wife) feels, she also had it but recovered. I can't imagine being married to someone for decades then suddenly having that ripped apart in a couple weeks without even being able to properly say goodbye.

      I started blaming Kautsky for literally every inconvenience in my life. It was that reactionary distorter of the revolution Kautsky's fault I have to buy cat food. HE ATE IT

    I did a dsa book club thing today on zoom. We were talking about wretched of the earth I was a little nervous cause it was my first time and I'm still a baby leftist. There's more theory for me to read and I just feel my knowledge isn't really there yet to speak with other actual leftist and hold a meaningful conversation. I thought going into the meeting that I would be silent and just listen. Turns out I was wrong I couldn't shut up. I actually kind of felt bad this is my first time really talking with other leftists. I think I was so excited that I just couldn't help contributing to the conversation. I fear I dominated it a little too much, I let others talk of course but man I just really wanted to share everything that I felt reading the book. It felt so good!

      This is the best way to have conversations. If you want to open up after you’re done with your point. Asking for clarification on ideas you didn’t understand allows the discussion to grow.

    Are we in the cool zone already? I zoned out this month. Have done nothing but jerk off and play videogames. Corona and the general state of the world depresses me a lot dude. Feeling like dog shit.

    My mortgage company was supposed to send me a check for a few thousand and they appear to have forgotten. Imagine if you stole a few thousand... theft is only illegal if you're poor.

    "Leftist" Twitter pundits out there telling everyone, now isn't the time for M4a while Dore goes ape shit.

    Dore is our Alex Jones. Embrace him and let's get rid of these hacks like dixion, Anna, kapsian, and the other now isn't the time losers.

    Apparently the NIH director just used the phrase "Hit the reset button" to describe how people should think of mRNA vaccines.

    All the great reset conspiracy people are flipping out lmao
