The real tragedy of "The Last of Us" is that they never got to see the Return of the King in theaters. I still refuse to eat mushrooms for that reason.

Ok, I've said my peace.

I'm off to binge watch The Sopranos and Star Wars: The Clone Wars.

Shout out Twitter for helping me (almost) get into a fistfight with my shitty uncle at my grampa's funeral.

The same uncle who almost got shot by my brother for breaking into our house.

Yes. He'll be at Thanksgiving.

No. He doesn't know how close he came to getting smoked.

I'm never going to give up the idea that there is beautiful people and wonderful ideas everywhere.

[Your Communist Uncle Jon @Comrade_Uncle]

And maybe one last post, and some context.

(Not that anyone on this site cares for context or nuance. 😅)

[Your Communist Uncle Jon @Comrade_Uncle]

I've taken that beautiful concept and realized I can apply this to my home and to my workplace.

There shouldn't be categories. All are welcome into my house. And all are (or should be) welcome into a union.

She helped me realize that this radical love is everywhere.

Oh, another favorite moment was all the Evergiven memes. Just absolute bangers.

[Your Communist Uncle Jon @Comrade_Uncle]

Great. Now do every American president still living.

Merrick Garland just appointed a war crimes prosecutor at The Hague to investigate Trump.

If it really is gone, two of my favorite all time Twitter moments is finding out that Nancy Reagan gave amazing head, and learning that Donald Trump was hiding like a little coward in the White House basement in 2020. Every time I think of that it's pure endorphins.

[Your Communist Uncle Jon @Comrade_Uncle]

I have no idea if Twitter is crashing or not or whatever. Tbh, on a personal level it's probably better for my mental health that it's gone. And since I'm bad at decisions Elon making that decision for me is probably gonna be fine.

[Your Communist Uncle Jon @Comrade_Uncle]

I was like 70% sure that 80% of you aren't real. And now thanks to Elon I'm 95%/95%. I'm wondering if I'm real. Not paying $8/mo to "prove" something I'm not sure of.

You can't vote your landlord out.
You can't vote your boss out.

Voting has it's purposes. But without revolution, it will never fix the problems of Capitalism.

You can never win the game, if the one who is winning always changes the rules to make sure they never lose.

Remember this today.

Of far greater importance than increasing the vote of the Socialist party is the economic organization of the working class. To the extent, and only to the extent, that the workers are organized and disciplined in their respective industries can the socialist movement advance
