Great magazine, loved the articles about modern sailing ships and sewage handling by aquaculture.

I believe as individuals and society we are over reliant on unnecessarily advanced technology and should seek alternatives to distance ourselves from this.

I feel about the same way, to the point I don't even really want print media to die. We're still looking at something right in front of us, but at least it isn't a screen. I've been framing it mentally as part of an intentional relationship I want to have with technology, and I think generally others should consider this too. Adopt technology selectively and critically, don't just let them foist new consumer durables on you, LOL.

lmfao american conception of "terrorists", just video game mobs that kill anybody and everybody. what issue would the IRA have with a bunch of internet Marxists who are probably entirely pro-Irish republicanism

I think a modern socialist planned economy fit for our situation would come out with a very pemanent, modular, and repairable cell phone. It would resemble an Apple product in no way, making use of open source hardware and software and with an ideological commitment against planned obsolescence.

comrade Jacob must have studied something well-compensated or become very skilled to pull 70k a year!

It's a nitpick, but we mean the class right? Gotha programme etc., workers as individuals need to contribute some value to the commons and society more broadly, sort of thing. But that's still the workers getting everything: First as an individual and second as a member of socialist society.

Wow, you made me wanna move there, very cool. It's really too bad the geopolitical conditions are such that we can't, say, go there on a working holiday visa.

May we live to see a revolutionary socialist restoration, but more than a restoration, a forging anew <3

As others have said, your family sounds nice. Maybe when you inherit those properties, you can keep one unit and give the rest to the residents to form a co-op.

rollerblading, sweet!

Working on my 2d Unity game, working on coding problems on Exercism, I am so close to being done the C++ problem set on that site, like 87%. Having a horrible time trying to pick what to write my paper on in Environmental Sociology, there just seems like so much to write about, even if I focus on my region.

Playing Thief Gold and loving it, I'm going to check out the open source clone as soon as I'm done. Installed and booted up New Vegas to show my gf the amazing game I've been talking about and OMG, it was a liiiitle jankier than I remember, I really should have installed the mods first if I wanted the game to look polished.

I checked into the library to ask about a casual job I applied for... It's been screening for like 2 months.
