Hey, it’s Hershey. We already got our first exciting fan letter! Let’s see what it says

It’s from Forrest. Hi, Forrest! You suggested that we should delete our account on July 17th, 2021.

Well Forrest, I have a suggestion for you. On July 17th, 2021, I suggest you start running.

Honestly I think communists don't focus on the joy of life that we can recover from killing capitalism enough. Like, I get why we spend so much time enumerating on the grinding suffering caused by global capitalism, but that doesn't always have enough time for reminding each other what we have to gain. Like, imagine being able to work ten hours a week and storms the rest of your time painting and dancing. Think of the great video games that will be made when people aren't driven to work 90 hour weeks in service of a Christmas release date making yet another sequel to a big soulless franchise just because it'll make money. Think of being able to watch any movie ever made for free because we're not tied down by copyright law, knowing all the actors and writers and crew who worked on it are living comfortably. Think of all the things you'll have time to cook and all the occasions you'll have to bring people over to eat dinner. Think of all the music that will be played when musicians are free to tour around the country without worrying about paying the bills back home. That's what liberation is to me, more than just the negation of exploitation. A few years ago there was an article floating around about how people in the soviet union had better sex lives and it was written off by a lot of people as a frivolous point. But that's exactly what we should be aiming for! We should be fighting to reclaim the joy of living itself that has been so ruthlessly crushed out of us and sold back piecemeal.

Your impact on other people is bigger than you think. Someone still giggles when they think of that funny thing you said. Someone still smiles when they think of the compliment you gave them. Someone silently admires you. The advice you give has made a difference for people. The support and love you've offered others has made someone's day. Your input and opinions have made someone think twice. You're not insignificant and forgotten. Your existence makes a positive difference, whether you see it or not.

Liberals: "Trump is LITERALLY turning this nation into a fascist state as we speak! We have to keep our democracy alive!"

Liberals 2 seconds later, without a hint of irony: "Look, it's simple- it doesn't matter how much you don't like them, you HAVE to vote for Biden this upcoming election. Yes he may be an evil human being, and yes none of us wanted him, but he is the only person you should even consider voting for. You do not get a choice in this. This is not about choice. Your voice is not something that should be used in a major political decision like this. This is a normal and very democratic thing of me to say"

“There is no great difference between novels and banana bread. They are both just something to do. They are no substitute for love. The difficulties and complications of love — as they exist on the other side of this wall, away from my laptop — is the task that is before me, although task is a poor word for it, for unlike writing, its terms cannot be scheduled, preplanned or determined by me. Love is not something to do, but something to be experienced, and something to go through — that must be why it frightens so many of us and why we so often approach it indirectly.”
