Life update!
I did manage to pay the thesis course on my own, no external help needed 🥸. Today I had the first meeting with my thesis advisor and my first methodology class, these classes pretty much take all Sunday (10am to 1pm, 3pm to 6pm), I'm so lazyyyy but I'll have to get to work 🫡 mini advances and fixes for next week -.- but we thrive!
The idea is that my next update is me after successfully defending my thesis (so either in 6 months or more), so I'm wishing myself good luck 🥹🫠
Remember when (in September? Or before?) that infamous iwtv rpf poll was going around and I had to find out via Twitter (bc I wasn't using Tumblr much) that ppl lost their minds and started spewing vitriol and pulling receipts to defend their hypothetical couple. Even the people who claimed rpf is unethical like JDKDJFKF an entire mess
literally all trump had to do was say that he wasnt going to send billions of dollars to israel for no reason (and anyone who thought he would say literally anything else has dog shit for brains) and they folded instantly. further proof that the sickening barbarity, the inhuman acts of genocide we have all borne witness to for over a year (not to mention the previously-ongoing project of settler colonialism) could have been stopped at any moment by biden and his dogs with a single phone call. lesser evil indeed
I do think with news of the ceasefire, everyone should read up on what the ceasefire actually means and what the different phases of the ceasefire are. here's a good source for what we know as of now:
Ceasefire reportedly agreed, including a prisoner exchange and aid surge, after more than 460 days of conflict.
Some of my initial takeaways are:
this ceasefire is temporary (as of right now, six weeks long). negotiations will continue but israel is not offering guarantees about continued non-violence. BDS remains important. be vigilant, keep pressure up
rafah crossing will open one week after the initial phase starts
israel will release 2000 prisoners
more aid will get to northern gaza, look out for ways you can help
if the second phase is initiated, israel will do a complete withdrawal from gaza. which means the initial phase will not include that. again i say: BE VIGILANT
if the third phase is reached, reconstruction will begin "under international supervision"
nothing is over, even if this is a relief. do not tape out, do not tune out.
pls still read the full article

Saw my friend Cris @huayno do this post and I wanted to participate as well!
last song: Ummm I think it was The perfect pair by Beabadobee
favorite color: I like many! Blue, pink, green, purple...
last book: The king in yellow by Robert W. Chambers. I enjoyed the first 4 stories that intertwine the mysterious figure of the Yellow king, but then the other stories fell flat to me.
last movie: Three daughters (teen kanya) by Satyajit Ray. I couldn't find it in any of my pirate servers, it was on youtube but with no English subs, but luckily it was on the internet archive.
last show: I watched I may destroy you last year, I think I will watch The great eventually bc there's tension between the characters of Elle Fanning and Nicholas Hoult 👁️
sweet/spicy/savory: Sweet! Love carbs and dark chocolate and pastries... I don't like candy for the most part though
last thing i searched online: I opened a clip of Heejin and Chuu that I haven't watched yet, not sure if that counts!
current obsessions: interview with the vampire ^_^ (more lowkey than a few months ago though!) and also trying to watch more movies and reading more books and stories, learning more seriously about marxism, trying to take advantage of my free time before Thesis steals me away
looking forward to: I'm not sure... I think I'm looking forward for my birthday even though I'm not planning on doing anything really, I don't feel like travelling or partying, I think I just want to walk, see the sunset, and then go eat at a restaurant...
I'm tagging @paristonhilll @ervona and @bloodsakkar ^_^
Guzhuang Appreciation Month: favorite aesthetics
the story of yanxi palace + earrings (x)
I was pretty sure I had saved enough money to pay for my thesis course and eventually my thesis dissertation, but some of that money I can't access yet (not on my own bank account) and I'm a liiiittle bit below my goal, which means that I'm gonna have to ask my parents to lend me money if that course asks for a deposit this month 🤢 , I already owe my mom some money I don't want to ask her for more yknow, and besides, since I finished college I promised myself to pay my own expenses since I felt embarrassed that my parents paid for everything. I've been paying my own extra courses and other stuff, so having to ask for money again :(( embarrassing. Ofc they won't refuse because they are my parents, but this shows my failure of not doing it entirely by myself. My parents have done enough -.-
Thoughts on Sendero Luminoso? I feel like everything I hear about them is either uncritical admiration from MLMs or anti-communist propaganda
They’re pretty awful but the anticommunist propaganda is hypocritical. The Alberto Fujimori-led Peruvian state is responsible for the relative majority and absolute greater intensity of repression, disappearances, and slaughter during the internal conflict. But I don’t think this means we should make apologetics for SL. SL thought that the organization perfectly represented the class because of the application of the mass line, that the organization represented the continuity of the true communist political lineage from Marx to Lenin to Mao to Gonzalo, and that what was good for the organization was good for the revolution.
That’s what led them to commit and publicly justify terror tactics against the peasants like the Lucanamarca Massacre—you can find their own statements pretty quickly and their supporters will defend it as necessary. Usually they say the peasants were part of the rondas campesinas that had been fighting with the SL, and that some of the rondas were state-sponsored, so any of the SL’s violence beyond any limits against the rondas could be justified. But the campesinos had organized rondas independently before the state began to sponsor any.
They did so initially as a form of protecting against the theft of cattle because their communities were isolated from everyday forms of state governance like policing. The campesinos tended to think in terms of the rural-Native-poor being united against the urban-white-rich. Many of them sympathized with the SL when they were killing the urban-white-rich and saw them as allies in that setting, but resented the SL trying to change the class structure of their communities from above and integrate them into the organizational structure. There were also tensions between the SL and some villages because the SL was trying to implement gender reforms which clashed with conservative and patriarchal attitudes.
Eventually the tensions escalated to a war between the rondas campesinas and SL, and the SL became isolated from its base while reducing the organization into nothing but a machine for war against the state and its political enemies. Which led to its current withered and irrelevant status.
Still, they did have a lot of importance influence on global Maoism taking a revolutionary perspective as the unofficial leaders of the Revolutionary Internationalist Movement. But even this was advantageous to only a limited degree, because even if they began with a very creative New Left Maoism they’ve ended in a navelgazing and misanthropic dogmatism. I think the other main path that New Left Maoism went in Latin America was that of the Zapatistas, and I’m much more interested in taking influence from that source than the ad hoc justifications for asceticism, dogmatism, and personality worship that make up most of Gonzaloism
