"I don't see any god up here. But from here the Earth is beautiful, without borders or divisions."
The first words of a human in space.
Soviet Cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin, April 12, 1961.

American "leftists" who do nothing for natives then see a decentralized general strike being organized in solidarity against genocide and their first response is to shut it down before the feds can

do you have a favorite short story?
I feel like I cycle through the same three answers every time somebody asks me because, having inhaled them for 30 years, in multiple languages, I can tell you that there are at least a thousand short stories that have surpassed every threshold of excellence and defy quantification. If you actually asked me to choose between Munro and Gallant, I'd probably die like Burdian's Ass. Anyway, I forget which one I said last time, but stream Willa Cather's “Paul's Case”.

syb and paola are my usual go-tos for picrews, but i've been replaying tow so i figured i'd throw darby into the mix as well <3 (picrew 1 // picrew 2)
deputy sybille la roux (fc5) giving into some of her more animal instincts during the trials // her being awfully mad about catching feelings for the person who put her through those trials
paola orsini (uncharted) pov you're charlie cutter watching her read // ms. orsini hugging a pillow to her chest and staring at her phone debating whether to give mr. cutter a call during her pining phase
darby wells (the outer worlds) a little scuffed up but ready to do some mad science with her dad phineas // her enjoying a throw pillow felix found on monarch (just imagine "Fuck the Board" embroidered on it <3)
tagging @trench-rot, @harmonyowl, @carlosoliveiraa, @purplehairsecretlair, @aceghosts, @sharkyboshaw, @madparadoxum, @locustandwildhoney, @testyfestyenthusiast, @strangefable, @deputyash, @josephslittledeputy, and anyone else wanting to play with these picrews! (taglist opt in/out)

I'm considering joining a communist party but I'm maybe too young and not sure if I have enough experience or awareness of the current state of my country. I've also only read 3 of Marx's works so far and I don't know if that's enough. On one hand the experience might help me get a better grasp on politics, but I could also just not be taken seriously and waste time instead. What do you think?
do it. there is no level of political education which is necessary to join a party. if they laugh you out for not having read anti-duhring or whatever that's not a communist party, that's a snobby book club. any party worth their salt will be happy to have helping hands and any communist worth anything will be happy to teach you whatever you don't think you know. hell, even if the party turns out to be a glorified book club--you will develop a better understanding of whatever texts you have read talking their ideas through with other communists.
in the worst-case scenario, it can be a learning experience--if the organization is ineffective or dangerous, you will be better able to spot red flags for those things in the future. in the best-case scenario you will go from reading a couple of books to actually helping make change happen in the world. join a party!

cannot describe how many people we killed to get to this thing but we definitely got it.

This is understandably, and reasonably, a fraught subject, due to general demographic make ups and the wider cultural issues like marginalized persons being unfairly accused of being "angry", the actual anger of persons of various marginalized groups being disproportionately stigmatized, etc. so I'm being careful with my words here. But. A lot of people in online lefty spaces genuinely have severe unmanaged pathological anger issues that they express publicly in extremely unhealthy and upsetting ways and I can't help but feel like that's a, uh, bad thing.

literally every season of ds9 the writers were coming up with wacky hijinks and political intrigues and then suddenly went ‘oh wait we have to put miles o’brien through his regularly scheduled dose of Unimaginable Horrors now’
