Aw man “surplus value” woulda been a lot funnier than labor :(

i could never be mono i just have too much love labor to give :')

GOOD post

fun shitposts but also genuinely kind people, least internet-brained internet site where i trust ppl to engage in good faith, broadly correct abt politics and occasionally genuinely informative. i have made little internet buds. idk it’s just a good site, 9/10 would recommend

(also came here from the original r/cth w/ a different username, mostly lurked there because there was a bit more caustic reddit bullshit that made posting seem unpleasant.)

you have no idea how many conventionally annoying, freaky ass weird ass motherfuckers find happy relationships, i guarantee you’re not as much of an oddity as you think. keep at it if it’s something u want, comrade

not true i am one and i am an angel from heaven : )

alternate pov: be as up front about your freaky politics as possible if you’re trying to find a serious partner. you want someone who is at least okay with where you’re at if not on the exact same page. i have a marx quote high up in my bio on hinge, better to get it outta the way early.

ask her if she’s looking forward to the Racial Jake vs Brother Love 2028 election

i have BEEN SAYING. your strat is way better because it’s bookended on either side by Fun (assuming u enjoy the holidays that is)

so I’ll be doing it again from after Thanksgiving to Christmas.

holy shit why are you so wise i should try this, this is way better than the sadistic puritan op of Dry January

who am i kidding ive only ever been “twink-adjacent”

28 is twink death.

speak for urself binch

I think I remember seeing you post about that - 11 years? Just shy of 9 on my end. You’re free to share a bit about why if you think that would be helpful! No pressure tho comrade.

it’s kinda cool that i’ve grown a ton since i left my (not technically) marriage <1.5 years ago. i do still sometimes feel guilty but it was completely the right decision.

the people in my life most upset by trump as such tend to be the ones least directly impacted by his policies. i really do think it’s an aesthetic thing for a lot of middle class white libs. more upset by the holes he punches in soothing fantasies about lib democracy than most of the actual abuses his admin carries out. not to minimize the anxieties of comrades in higher risk groups ofc, there is a genuine wider range of domestic political violence under trump. and i realize this is a pretty worn out/cliche point in our circles at this point. but still, just thinking about different people i know’s reactions to Orange Man

but I like weed

better thing to like, jealous that my brain doesnt work that way (i only like to get a lil stoned when im also a lil tipsy )

yeah luckily this’ll be a different subset of the same field in a “sister agency,” so while my day-to-day will prob be more hectic on average, i still have same pension, union, bennies, no unpaid overtime etc. i did the whole “you can be called at any moment by people with power over you” type job a while back and refuse to ever dip a toe back into that shit unless it’s life or death. and i set better boundaries than most in that field.

have you considered a playful text suggesting she find an excuse to happen upon ur workspace???
