Capitalism and colonialism took community away from us and I want it back. I’ve heard about it from my grandparents and in books and articles online. All throughout history and still today in some parts of the world. People looking out for each other. Regularly. Relentlessly. Neighbors watching each others children, having enough food to share and actually sharing it, being invested in each others lives because everyone has different strengths.
Today community has been strategically painted as a weakness and something to be skeptical of because it is a threat to the very foundations of capitalism. And that’s a real fucking shame because in reality, growing up with community and still having that through adulthood would probably make most people generally happier and less perpetually tired and stressed. It is renewable resilient versatile adaptable self-sustaining and kind of the Ultimate Resource.

The push towards overconsumption doesn't get more obvious than this.
Tumblr media
genuinely a shocker that the art form that's supposed to be digested slowly and analyzed is getting an industrialized fast fashion version of itself.
Ik it doesn't seem like a big deal but renting books from a library has always been the default for me, it was like culture shock to find out people pay money to get books they are CONSIDERING reading. Why? Why not go to the library to find a book you might like and maybe interact with people for once? Third spaces are disappearing in the US and that may not always be in our control, but we have to try to preserve the ones that are still around by visiting them.
This doesn't count for anyone who doesn't have access to libraries or secondhand books btw. But please . Take the opportunity to find some new books irl you'll even get the #cottagecore aesthetic if the book is busted and used and you'll meet new people

So um... I did indeed delve into photography
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Taking these has been more fun than I thought it'd be so expect more in the future. I also made an edit/collage but tumblr limits how many images you can have in one post so stay tuned for that in the notes
places that feel lost but found. places that feel abandoned but lived in. haunted but urban, or suburban. just out of sight or rarely paid attention to, but nostalgic somehow? a softer more human side to things that are run down or broken, the inverse of a liminal space almost. These photos are just the beginning of it, I want to photograph a lot more in the near future, from small thrift stores to some of my own old belongings to cozy but messy living spaces with lighting that's a bit too yellow to old books to whatever odd things I find along the way.

“Like all other manifestations of racism, it’s so much easier to look elsewhere, wave one’s pale hand and say “it’s their fault”. But the truth is that planetary-scale inequalities, including climate change, are a direct consequence of colonialism.”

Liberals will whine about the self-supposed “horrors” of Soviet “forced industrialization” when this is what European industrialization looked like:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Has there been any serious attempt in calculating as of how many people that died because of work-related circumstances in the West over the period of capitalistic industrialization while furthering the enrichment and power of the bourgeoisie?
We can safely imagine it had to have been tremendously many.
Here is a serious attempt made by the German Marxist Robert Kurz:
However, the book has, as of 2023, not been translated into other languages from the original German.

“The End of History” proclaimed by Francis Fukuyama consisted in the triumph of bourgeois ideology. Modernism and rationality had triumphed in a single socioeconomic culture we call civilization.
This process has increased its grip on every aspect of life as capitalism consolidated itself in the late 19th and 20th Centuries. More and more sophisticated techniques of control and surveillance have been produced. Military powers and capabilities increase as the nation states of the West exert their control over the rest of the world and fight each other for the plunder. The commodity market has become global through developments in transport and communications. Huge cities emerge while the countryside has been turned over to farming vast monocultures. These are the results of bourgeois ideology’s struggle to establish itself as the single method of social organisation and the single way of understanding the world – as “civilization” itself. We cannot change the laws of nature but we can change conditions of existence. We have been predators but in the main do not kill as often as we did. We defend the means of our existence (the land, the crops, waterways) but can limit the impact of our actions radically. While we will continue to defend our existence (for instance by limiting the impact of insects on crops), we will do it from necessity, humanely and rationally, and in ways which do not adversely effect the environment; the definition of which must surely be, unnecessary or beyond what can be easily renewed or which disadvantages non-proximate life.

This is a good idea. We should all copy.
I hate over developed places and industrializations. Did more damage than good.

"What On Earth Is SchoolRust?"
Glad you asked! SchoolRust is an aesthetic (titled by me) focused on places and things that are old, abandoned, or forgotten, and most of all macabre. The locations are typically those that have decayed or broken down over time, and places that have an odd sense of nostalgia to them. I also like to put an emphasis on places that have been greatly affected by industrialization, like factories, urban settings, schools, power plants, stores, etc.... wherever you might find a chainlink fence and rusted machinery, basically. Overall: the contrast of things that are soft and nostalgic vs things that are cold, worn down, and dreary. A slowly decaying childhood home with a cell tower looming over it, or a school playground covered in rust on a rainy day, are some images that come to mind; thus the name. Other aspects of the aesthetic include old toys, outdated decor/architecture, thrifty and macabre clothes, as well as things that might remind you of urban legends and late 2000s-early 2010s creepypasta culture. Both the horror and comfort of the past are very welcome here.

A lot of this aesthetic was inspired by both my interest in online horror (both as a kid and as an adult), as well as growing up in a low income area with many abandoned or outdated buildings and odd places to explore, so it's definitely a bit of a personal and hyperspecific niche; but I hope other people like it too! Maybe we can share in our experiences, and our love of the strange, forgotten, and familiar. ♥

Industrialization in Europe in the 19th century
In the 19th century, Europe moved from artisanal manufacturing to mass production with the appearance of the first mechanized spinning mills. The process of industrialization then profoundly transformed European economies and societies.
