Karl Marx, born on this day in 1818, was a foundational political theorist and journalist associated with the philosophy of Marxism.
Among Marx's best-known texts are the "The Communist Manifesto" and the three-volume "Das Kapital", in which he set out to define and explain the behavior of the capitalist mode of production.
Marx's political and philosophical thought have had enormous influence on subsequent intellectual, economic and political history, and his name has been used as an adjective, a noun, and a school of social theory.
Marx's critical theories about society, economics and politics - collectively understood as Marxism - hold that human societies develop through class conflict. In capitalism, this manifests itself in the conflict between the ruling classes (known as the bourgeoisie) that control the means of production, and the working classes (known as the proletariat) that enable these means by selling their labor power in return for wages.
Employing a critical approach known as historical materialism, Marx concluded that, like previous socio-economic systems, capitalism produced internal tensions which would lead to its self-destruction and replacement by a new system known as socialism.

It's really adorable watching a bird hop up branches of a tree.
it is may 10 and stalin saved the world from fascism
I was discussing mental health with a friend and I came up with a crazy theory that is regionally very specific but I think it has some utility value. This only applies to the the southern California region specifically.
For socal residents going to Disneyland is a form of bdsm. I have specifically noticed a trend with submissive partners I have known that they like going to Disneyland. Where the experience there is being forced to wait, then being restrained, then being subjected to extreme sensations.
I guess any place where you live that has season passes to amusement parks can develop a similar practice of self bdsm. I think that I am onto something here.
There is an intersection of mental health, ritual activity, flow state, and submission, this idea is circling around and I am not sure how to synthizie it
This is genius
You've even got aftercare if you go to the restaurants or sit down and relax after a ride 
tried making some siopao for the first time and it was a bit of a struggle but i hope that they at least taste good 
my partner likes it!!!!!! 
SaitΕ KΕhei is right β Marx (and thus Marxists, until SaitΕ arrived) was completely wrong to assert "The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of the development of the productive forces."
How did Engels let this get published in 1848? Right, he was a Stalinist.
Honestly I can't stand Saito and can't understand how so many people take Marx and the Anthropocene so seriously it's genuine shit.
Less is More by Jason Hickel is actually surprisingly good and extremely easy to read though
Inner sloth got Thom Yorke to make the ost for the newly released among us 3D game

A drunk guy sat down on the train across three and a half seats and immediately started trying to flirt with the lady behind him who effortlessly started pretending she only spoke Russian mid-sentence, then once the drunk guy left she switched back to the same language he was flirting in.
I love public transport.
A guy was hammering on the bus door trying to get in as the bus drove off, I told the bus driver someone wanted to get on and he responded by literally saying "I guess he's going to be late".
HE WAS TOUCHING THE BUS.
Now I'm sitting here fuming at a bus driver.
I was never a huge fan of Coke, Fanta or McDonald's, but since I started boycotting them I have realized how much I don't like them. I don't miss them at all, and I don't know what keeps drawing people back to that crap
I have been boycotting them since about 2021 since they tricked me and a bunch of vegetarians into eating their fries, which are fried in vegetable oil but contain "beef extract". I don't miss the fries but I do sometimes miss the hash browns. How else are you going to consume 1100 calories and like 3g salt in 20 seconds?
vaguely miss strawberry fanta because the local bottler doesn't have one but even if i wasn't taking the laziest moral stand i'm not paying the extortionate price they charge for a 12-pack these days
McDonalds is the same everywhere (Although there are inter country variations im told) and a sandwich is OK and the price is OK, and a lot of people have positive associations with the place from all their marketing to children and the McDonald's play area being some of the most kid friendly areas in deprived communities. None of this is to defend McDonalds, it's slop for hogs and their marketing to children is predatory.
Some of my friends used to get their cheeseburgers for lunch when studying, since they were pretty cheap and convenient. After the war in Ukraine began they raised the price by 50% over 3 months. So now you may as well go somewhere with better food
im about to fuck my parents up with some food on an entirely different level of decadence than they can imagine, i've got chicken for souvlaki marinating that Im gonna make into wraps with some homemade tzatziki and really nice tomatoes and lettuce, i'm gonna toss some broccolini in lemon juice and oil and garlic and shit and then grill that shit til it chars, and I'm gonna make hassleback potatoes with bacon fat and garlic in every slice. happy mother's day motherfuckers

weekly Dr Who rant, spoilers within
"I used to call it the world wide web, until humans named something far uglier that."
The Doctor just wants to chill out and gossip with his mates. Unfortunately the barber shop they hang out in has been stolen be Anansi who's using stories to power some sorta giant, cyborg spider ship. Cue a coup attempt among the gods and a reunion with a jilted lover.
What I liked:
-
the way they tied the way the map of the escape route through the maze was hidden into an interesting piece of African history was cool.
-
the design of the engine/control room was rad.
-
Dr Who acknowledging Earth outsida the Anglosphere is rare, I want to see more of it.
What I didn't like:
-
GIANT CGI SPIDER, it looked terrible.
-
Anansi, it's all very well to use gods like Bastet or Loki who aren't worshipped in earnest anymore but Anansi is a figure in a religion actively being practiced and that feels weird to me.
Overall:
I liked it. With more hits than misses so far imho Dr Who is slowly building a winning streak. Tune in next week when they throw that in the shitter with a Eurovision Song Contest parody.
Great-aunt is over and spreading extremely obviously fake stories about people from American reality TV shows and celebrities being killed by other famous people and them all having bodies found in secret basements. Which I'm assuming are from AI YT channels.
Caffeine not hitting the way it usually does these past couple days. Ughhhh
yeah, gotta take a day off from it time to time
I might give that a try. Could also be that I'm just super worn out though. I have amount of caffeine that I drink every day. I haven't really been drinking more, but definitely not feeling it as much.
i don't think taking a day off really does much, doesn't it take months to fully withdraw from the drug?
fully, sure, but if i refrain for 36 hours or so i get a bigger bump than the rest of the week.
i'm sure it varies with how much you normally have and what else you're up to.
interesting, I've never really chosen to go without but i have tempered my intake to an acceptable level over the years. don't really feel the need cause im just on 2-3 cups a day which isn't that much
What happens if you make baba ganoush with peanut butter instead of tahini
I'm always tempted to try soaking a different bean than 
every time I make hummus but I'm too much of a coward.
You can just make a different bean sauce silly
The contradictions are sharpening and the Imperial Core ever more fascistic and autocanniballistic. The silver lining is that at least folk punk is making a comeback. πͺ
I have a little old baby truck for supposedly making my life easier with projects, but I went like 7 months without starting it and driving it around (a long story), so the less than 1 year old battery died. like full drain. I spent the entire morning looking up the various hardware I can buy/use to remedy this specific situation (multi stage charger, 10A) as well as prevent it in the future (2-3A maintainer).
my current place doesn't have a garage or a car port or even a goddamn outlet on the porch, so I guess I'm charging this thing inside the house now that I've pulled the battery out. if I keep the windows open, that's well ventilated right?
this is so America car brained, but one day I just want to have a really simple shed that has like 3 bays worth of space, all my tools neatly organized, power outlets, wifi, a little dumpy computer I can easily watch videos on, and all the bullshit so I can just mostly fix my own dumbass problems without turning my living space into a chaos dungeon.
My Ace Trainer boyfriend just got back from his Hoenn League trip and I couldn't help but notice all of the badges he acquired were from the woman gym leaders there, but none from the men.
He fucked the dudes instead of battling
Do I ask him about it?
Oh my god, I was sneak-peeking through his Pokedex while he's in the shower and I found a PC Box filled with Lopunny.
you should turn him into the child of our future Omelas
