*ppl have less time off then ever seen before in human history!! (Even peasants had harvest festivals and excessive amounts of religious/seasonal holidays to keep them from rioting)

*There is a larger $$ disparity between the top and the middle class of people then during the French revolution!!

*Ppl work more and harder - with only slightly more or less depending on decade- since the Industrial Revolution (Before this, the ave person worked 20 hour weeks all the way back to the start of societies, if you take in how much time off and hard labors off seasons into account)

*There has never been a more unstable access to housing and control over your personal shelter (yes, ppl have been held in slavery and impoverished but tbh this is the first time ppl can look at places to live and simply not have access to comfy place to build camp at least) *The starvation rate of people has been higher sure, but food insecurity has never been so wide spread, not to mention our food waste also caps out every years

Oh Also!! If you cant work 'hard enough' to pay your bills its your fault! If you cant leave the house on the way to work 'early enough' to catch a bus that shows up once every hour your the one at fault not the system. You where gunna buy a small coffee or treat on your way? Hahah with what spare change? You have to pay your electricity bill this week. Now get to work at a job you hate!!

Anarchy is doing good things through bad means. It is preventing corruption and standing for equality. Real equality, not that bullshit idea of equality that the gov and school feed you. No government, no monopoly businesses, just every day citizens acting in interest of every day citizens.

This evening I would like to approach the questions on the flyers from a number of directions. But my overarching thesis is that the cognitive maps [which have] been pointed out, have been deployed on the Left to help revolutionaries think ‘revolution’ are fundamentally flawed. To say that these maps are fundamentally flawed is not the same as saying they are fundamentally wrong. Another way to say this is to say that Marxism, Indigenism, radical white and non-black feminism, and postcolonial studies, to name but a few, have an impoverished analysis of violence. This impoverished analysis of structural violence leads them into the trap of thinking that the narrative arc of revolutionary, used schematically to theorize working class feminist, gay and lesbian, post-colonial oppression, is an arc of narration, a progressive scheme of change, that can also be applied to Black suffering in the process of Black redemption. This is a trap. The very thing that causes us not to see Black suffering as Slave suffering. In addition, this impoverished analysis means that we produce theoretical work, and political praxis which A.) pays little to no attention to the singular dynamics of Black suffering and B.) paves the way for social movements on the Left to appropriate Black bodies and then deploy those bodies as implements of revolutionary struggle in the same manner a 19th century master who would appropriate Black bodies has implements of production, or (unclear), or joy. This constant regeneration of the Black body, or what Hortense Spillers, Black feminist theorist, more appropriately calls “Black flesh”, works at every level of abstraction— which is to say it is a degenerative mechanism which allows for the coherence of large-scale social movements, it is the degenerative mechanism which allows for the coherence of cinema and literature, and it is the degenerative mechanism which allows for the coherence of interpersonal relations between friends and lovers, enemies, and colleagues.

You can tell us, Ink, we’ve all figured it out by now.

Hey yall,  if you’re an archaeologist and need money, or if you have money and want to donate it, check out black trowel collective microgrants! They’re a group of ararchist archaeologists who give up to 300USD to any archaeolgist who needs it, anywhere in the world and no questions asked. They’re helping me go to a field school in June but they’re willing to cover all sorts of fees to help less fortunate people get into archaeology :D

How to Be Happy

How to Be Happy. Decide it every morning; under a lackluster pre-dawn sky that brings weight to aching spines. Burn blinders placed on a fractioned mind. That familiar blaze will always certainly rise. No matter; our Corvidae friends scatter their thoughts of tireless intrigue about an endlessly spinning moon. I laugh, and carry on. My brain squeezing itself, and a good mood.
