    Had one of the best interviews in my time as a wage slave last week and really felt like I hit it out of the park. They said I’d know on Friday. Well here it is Monday and still donno. Should I keep holding out or just blow my brains out now get it over with?

    On a more cheerful note, I’m finally starting my dive into non-ML leftist theory and started Anarchy Works by peter Gelderloos and it’s been a pretty enjoyable read. The format is basically Idea, historical example, and synthesis of ideas with praxis for each chapter. But it’s clear and easy to digest. I’m 1/4 in and started Saturday and that with barely any time to read and I’m not a fast reader normally.

    I’m pretty sure I’m definitely not an anarchist but I like that I am developing a fuller understanding of the concepts. I do like the idea of little pocket anarchist communities popping up all the time tho because even if they never last, it does show that humans can still be communal for at least a moment.

    Might take a sidestreet after this book and read up on syndicalism since that’s also piqued my interest recently.

      Heard back yet? Is it worth chasing up?

        I have not. I just sent a follow up email but I’ve been at this for a while so can pretty much assume I didn’t get it.

            It sucks. I ended up emailing him after I saw your comment and they did say that a few people had to reschedule so no decision yet.
