I love men.

Pickleball was invented like four years ago and they’re trying to gaslight us into thinking it’s always been a thing
played pickleball in the middle '00s. I thought forever that it was some made up or hyper localised thing until everyone and their mother started playing in the past couple years
How much are they paying you
literally never heard of it until this tweet
Sometimes when I pet Mr. Softie’s belly he kicks my hand away like NO but I go back and do more belly rubs even though he doth protest >:)

everyone on this website tells me “oh go outside do some actual organizing leftists irl are not as terminally online as on this website” but then I go outside and do some actual organizing and it’s like 75% terminally online people who wouldn’t be out of place on this website, joking about whatever twitter in-joke or drama is big that day. “You don’t watch anime?” No motherfucker I don’t, like sorry I didn’t realize knowing who Hatsune Miku is was a prerequisite to being a communist

Hatsune Miku is an instrument
sorry but I refuse to learn who Hatsune Miku is
I actually really like the guy who said that to me, but like cmon
Join some other orgs too! Some are like that, but others are full of cool elderly folks that struggle with tech, and yet others have a more middle-aged demographic, where they can use tech but aren’t terminally online. It feels like it varies by location as much as it does by the national organization.
That’s just how young people are nowadays. Everyone born after 1995-ish has it hard to avoid being terminally online, or be completely shielded from its discourses.
However, I wouldn’t necessarily say people doing active organizing here in Germany are that influenced by twitter discourse. However, lifestylism and hedonism are hugely influential among many self-proclaimed leftists. I imagine America is different since it had a huge recruitment wave for leftist organizations in the mid to late 2010s instead of slowly but steadily shrinking since the early 1980s. Less comrades in their 30s and 40s and later to get to know, turning many orgs into youth-based ones, with specific inner cultures.
Apparently, it’s Very Controversial that I think Aaron Bushnell’s sacrifice might turn out to be worth it. Obviously there’s no guarantees, but. Yeah. It started a struggle session last time I mentioned it.
I agree that people’s reactions to it on the site was fucked. Like okay maybe it’ll start something, maybe it’ll be in vain who knows, but there were a lot of people just shit talking it when they really should have just shown some solidarity considering this person gave their life in probably the most horrible way I could imagine and not only that it was in service to the Palestinian people. I was surprised to see people’s reactions to it honestly.
Also, men that used to be muscular but gained a bunch of weight are still hot as fuck. Some might consider that controversial.
Consoles are shitty proprietary boxes owned by losers who actually regress art and gaming. The world would be a better place if everything was made PC in mind. Mods and emulation forever!
Counterpoint is of course gaming started with arcades and then consoles at a time far before the modern windows experience was a thing. I agree with this completely but this should have happened in mid 2000s at the earliest which also means at that point how would you argue that playing a game on Windows XP with shitty DX9 graphics was realy all that better than a PS2 game?
Things are different now clearly, I think the industry turned to shit around the PS3 era, the whole thing with backwards compatibility was the crossing line.
arcades are the original microtransaction garbage
Imagine if Nintendo released stuff on PC and it worked on Linux.

They really are. Like I see people arguing “oh it’s the cheap option, it’s the people’s treatbox” when it’s like having a dedicated treatbox in the first place is a decadent luxury. PCs are tools, they’re actual productive capital, and one that’s competitive with/better than a dedicated treatbox that produces nothing and can only be used for treats is barely more expensive than it.
The solution is to have a computing cluster underneath each public housing block that people can draw from according to need be it for entertainment or productive uses
Nobody actually likes beer. They just think they do because of some combination of alcohol addiction and toxic masculinity.
Beer is cool and good actually 😎
It tastes like puke ngl

I think pizza is a really tasty, delicious, and good food.

I think restaurants are good. We should keep them after the revolution.
Wait, why wouldn’t we? I can’t cook and there’s people who love cooking.
I’ve seen discourse that restaurants are bourgeois and shouldn’t exist. I can see it from a COVID standpoint but beyond that I like restaurants.
I firmly believe that is from people who work in food service who understandably have had horrible experiences at work, but who also assume the abuse they’ve received would continue to exist after the revolution. Alternatively it’s also from people who had to deal with abuse, but also aren’t really cut out for food service that unfortunately have been pushed into the roll for various reasons (mainly because capitalism is horrible at allocating people’s skills to jobs they would actually be good at/enjoy)
Yes, hopefully with the capitalist motive removed, the abuse and exploitation will go with it. Or all restaurants become super small worker owned co-ops of people who love cooking, serving, and cleaning. Either way, I think there can be a no exploitative way to serve people food in a social setting.
“people who love serving”
hmmmmmm
Yeah even typing it out felt wrong haha. Maybe like conveyor belt style
I’ve had controversial takes about restaurants in the past. Currently I’m in a “restaurants should be more akin to cafeterias” phase, would love to hear criticism of this though. My thinking is that cafeterias are good for workers, it would cut down on food waste (but of course not eliminate it) and be easier on food service workers.
Conquest Of Bread has a section on communal kitchens and it’s based as fuck. Not only does it fix restaurants, but also the whole ‘cook for two hours to eat in ten minutes’ problem
It would make it easier to compost.
having waiters and servers whose sole job is to take your order and walk from the kitchen to your table so you don’t have to move your lazy ass and can roleplay what it is like to have a personal servant is obviously bourgeois bullshit. under communism if you want a beer at a restaurant you’ll just walk your ass to the fridge yourself.
i don’t fucking get how people can be commies and then not have the slightest bit of creativity to imagine a world that might look and work slightly different from our own.
Sometimes the easiest answer really is the simplest.
I think the backlash against restaurants in part comes from Americans (like me) who can clearly see that we have way, way, way too many of them and they’re all understaffed. After the revolution there will be like 1/3d the number of restaurants and each one will have twice as many people working at it and that will lead to an improvement in quality for everyone involved.
It’s more efficient and food can be better if it’s produced at scale.
You are thinking of a canteen/cafeteria (столовая), but yeah they rule. Not terribly expensive even at this time, and should be at every corner of every city.
It takes significantly less labor for chefs at a restaurant to make food for a bunch of people than for each of them to make their own, but yeah a good cafeteria is like the ultimate restaurant.
