Haha my former upstairs neighbors liked to do that while having sex at 4am but they also liked to play music during sex

The music was really loud, but didn’t cover the other sounds

Really loud

The music was The Beatles

I don’t want another cringe post

I don’t need another type of guy, no

I don’t want to learn the hard way

Baby get banned, oh, no, goodbye

But you got me like Musk’s rocket

Blowing up across the sky

It’s the way you shitpost

It’s a feeling like this

It’s centrifugal motion

It’s perpetual piss

It’s that pivotal moment

It’s, ah, impossible

This piss, this piss (unstoppable)

This piss, this piss

Live in Germany but originally come from the Failed States of America. I normally shower twice daily, unless I’m staying in the apartment all day and not going anywhere then I can do once. Do not have a bath tub, probably wouldn’t use it much if at all if I had one

Tired and unmotivated every day fuck

Probably if you have the money I know the mattress I have is wrecking my sleep but I can’t commit to replacing it at this time. I know the frustration of remembering what a good night’s sleep is like the rare time I go to a hotel very well…

Yes, especially historically there was a strong overlap between knowledge workers and the PB class. Still true to some extent today. But the point is that PB and knowledge workers or the “intellectual class” are not categorically the same.

I will offer a stab at it but others might disagree: I think at least historically, workers in privileged positions like this were at least in principle able to become exploiters if they wanted to with the resources available to them. Furthermore as you point out some people in this category can have ambitions of becoming exploiters. For this reason Stalin for example recognized an intellectual class that was neither exactly proletariat nor bourgeoisie, important for bringing into the revolutionary fold but also not always trustworthy. This class, iirc in Stalin’s estimation, was not large enough to become revolutionary on its own.

It’s important however to remember Marx’s comment about transformation in the process of production pitching increasing numbers of people into the proletariat. With increasingly tenuous and badly paid work in teaching and academic professions in the west in the 21st century, it’s arguable that Stalin’s analysis of intellectuals no longer applies to present conditions, at least not as much as in his time, and congrats we’re exploited workers too (I’m an out of contract PhD student, hi, my life is a nightmare).

If you rewatch the very last ATLA episode they talk about the Earth Nation balkanizing and how great that is, even in Korra they seem to have forgotten about it but I member

The Earth Nation in the original series was pretty China coded and not in good ways. I enjoyed Avatar but it’s got plenty of liberal brainworm propaganda and Korra is worse that way

This has to be a bit. This has to be a bit. Someone please tell me this is a bit

I mean

The way other actually tyrannical stuff is presented in mass media this sort of reaction is not very surprising

Don’t worry by 2030 it will all be burned in Poland so it won’t count

There seems to be consensus across the entire political spectrum to keep getting ripped off by Joe Biden for LNG transported at huge economic and environmental expense across the ocean by ship instead of the one way (edit: ok at one point there was another way that wasn’t exactly carbon neutral, at one point Germany and Russia consented though but also there was someone they forgot to ask) of actually solving the problem.

The power of Failed States of America propaganda is staggering

Let’s not forget distributed grids reliant on wind can’t tolerate local drops in energy output so you need to set up a zillion little LNG plants that are even less efficient than big ones

Edit: or I guess batteries that haven’t been invented yet but that’s sure not how the problem is solved most places these days
