@funerlparty It's a fun read. Have fond memories reading it during the pandemic in the summer.

@funerlparty The Man Without Qualities

[Dialectical Zach-Zack Loeffler @thezachloeffler]

All successful art has an element “melancholy,” Adorno says, for “it achieves an unreal reconciliation at the price of a real reconciliation.” This is no doubt part of what Schubert meant when he questioned if there were such a thing as happy music.

Your dream vs my dream

[cordelia @cozyunoist]

some obvious questions about Governing Well that are worth entertaining:
1) what if people don’t like it because it involves trading the short term for the long?
2) what if people wants its benefits without its costs?
3) what if people want its benefits, but only for themselves?

It's so funny he's dead honestly. Couldn't have happened to a better person.

The US exists because of a rebellion by merchant elites so this place isn’t really into restraining merchant power. That’s kinda the point of the political system, to cater to the interests of merchant elites. What did you think “liberty” meant to the founders?

[the thicc husband & father @lukeisamazing]

this is one of the most insane images I’ve ever seen. 90 years ago, the CCP was confined to this tiny space and the Red Army had less than 8000 soldiers after the Long March and now they just made the world multipolar. the LARP is real… until you win

unironically yes golf courses are evil

[Dragon kingdom.wu🌃 @loongkingdom]

China has announced the ban on the existence of golf courses. It requires that all existing golf courses be incorporated into urban community parks and made accessible to all citizens. Moreover, it states that golf has no sporting value at all.
