hey quick question as i don’t follow baseball; why do the Yankees have fans?

(this is because replacing flawed systems requires working with and talking to people, which is incompatible with the image of programmer-as-egoistic-man that the modern discipline is founded upon)

software people love to be like “i wonder how much of a computer i could build from scratch” and then direct approximately 0% of that competency into replacing the flawed systems we all use everyday

for a girl who supposedly listens to a lot of music i’ve never seen æsc make a playlist

yes we do live in a dictatorship of the bourgeoisie and yes that means elections are necessarily elections of the most favourable enemy

but it’s a mistake to characterize this fact of history as a feature which is essential to democracy

it is only a feature essential to our present democracy

voting is only about “choosing your opponent” because we live in a dictatorship of the bourgeoisie

the 00’s were all about people releasing good songs and other people then taking that and using it as a sample in a much worse song

(but will they read the Spleen of Paris?)

Legends: Z‐A was actually delayed just so that everybody on the Pokémon team could actually finish Les Mis

somebody explain to me French Politics in 1840–1870 so that i can write pokémon fanfiction

he could be the pokémon professor i’m just saying

do you think Pokémon Legends: Z‐A will feature a cameo by Karl Marx

lesbians, would you fuck Napoleonic France?

wikipedia, France is NOT a girl

the opening to that game was NOT a meet-cute

why must echoes of wisdom fans write zelink

(fedi girls posting about feminism)

(eats crème brûlée) i don’t see why they call this “French cuisine”; it doesn’t seem to have much of anything to do with France

You’re looking for hope. I don’t know how. Watching you fortify yourself, garner your books, and pack your bags for the #Resistance. Tell me it couldn’t be THAT bad. Tell me you’ll call my mom and dad.

If anything happens when we’re out there, I’ll be vigilant.

The good thing in all of this is earning your calluses. Getting resilient; studying consequence. I’ve been something of a scholar these days—I’ve been trying (but I get it wrong). I’ve been something of a revelation—I just don’t know what I want. And I’ve been something of a loser these days—I’ve been nothing like my father these days—I’ve been something of a liar these days. “I am okay. I am okay.”

The good thing in all of this is being irrelevant. Getting your tires checked and going back out again.

The good thing in all of this is having a friend in it. Come tell me how it is—and how it’s been.
