Like, I’m not a Leninist but do the people making jokes about keyboard warriors waiting for ‘le glorious revolution that will never happen’ know that like. Actual socialist revolutions have happened in dozens of countries for like, over a century. And the only reason there aren’t more extant socialist states is because the cia’s favorite passtime is assassinating socialist political leaders and destabilizing any regime that poses a threat to the empire of capital. Like do they do know that it isn’t a hypothetical and that political revolutions are in fact something that can be organized and enacted (if you manage to not get assassinated by the cia long enough to make it happen which again is really the main sticking point).

My city just opened their first roundabout and I've never seen the locals more united

They've named her Rhonda, made a Facebook group, designated her as a landmark on Google Maps, and watch the traffic camera livestream like it's a sporting event.

They're sharing screenshots of people who fuck up:

Someone wrote a country song about her and it was apparently on the radio yesterday.

Yesterday, there were several people trying to set a record for the most laps around Rhonda

The guy who did the 500 laps did them in a silly truck covered in plastic skeletons (apparently if you honk when you're behind him, he can push a button to make that skeleton in the middle piss water on you)

He's being interviewed by local news today I think

This screenshot from the Facebook group sums up my feelings:

'youre supposed to agree with ivenci a little bit'

wow that must be why most every character that talks at us in treviso, including the two faction leaders we're supposed to like and trust and the plucky underdog kid awash in sympathetic grief, sneers at them, and why all of the dialogue options available to me in this ROLE. playing game are similarly dismissive & critical.

(whether i as the player am supposed to agree with or like or appreciate the nuances of a character--esp an antagonist--is, personally, secondary to whether my character can meaningfully develop & express that opinion [or, god forbid, a different one from mine developed from a different set of life experiences & values in this role. playing. game.])

While I don't fully agree with the all of the whole FuckCars movement's positions I have to admit that they have really made me question and reconsider my political views. For example, I used to think the voting age should be 18 because minors are less capable of forming opinions based on nuanced thought, but after learning that "It's not fair that I have to look both ways before crossing the street, the government should just make cars illegal!" is a position that will not get you laughed out of the room in certain circles, I realized that yeah actually you could probably lower it to 3 and it would make zero difference to the quality of political discourse

Does anybody else feel the waves of history crashing over them constantly and like they can't escape the generational trauma that permeates and poisons every interaction they have or do I just need to chill and have a drink lol

"REBUILD SLUMS ON CITY LANDS BOARD IS URGED," Toronto Star. January 17, 1934. Page 1 & 2. --- New Housing Plans for Toronto Submitted by Large Delegation ---- WOULD MAKE WORK ---- Speaker Claims 15,000 Families Have "Doubled Up" Since Depression ---- "Something must be done and only public bodies can restore the credit curtailed by banks if we are ever to put our men back to work," James Craig, past president of the Ontario Association of Architects, told board of control to-day. He headed a large delegation from architects, building trades, and women's organizations to lay before the board a new housing plan for Toronto.

Asking for $2,500,000 in civic aid to finance the building, Mr. Craig said the plan would pay $2,000,000 in wages, provide cheap housing for 750 families and convert a dead asset in civic lands into a live one.

The expenditure of each $833,000 would have a return value to the city of $1,666,000, he said.

The city was still under-built, he maintained, pointing out that 15,000 families had doubled up here since the depression began. He did not refer to apartment houses.

"There are many slums in Toronto," he said, citing Hon. H. Н. Stevens' challenge to rebuild slum areas.

"Look in behind the city hall and you will find a rabbit warren. Look even in your areas," he urged. "I challenge the right of any landlord to exact rent."

Con. McBride wanted to know what he meant by Mr. Stevens, the minister of trade and commerce.

"Are you questioning Mr. Stevens' statement?" asked Con. Simpson, smiling.

"You just mind your own business, Mr. Simpson?" retorted Con. McBride.

"The construction industry in Toronto is coming very close to the ragged edge," Mr. Craig pointed out. "Since 1929, it has dropped 86 1-2 per cent. When we contrast it with industries protected from 20 to 40 per cent., we realize the members of the building industry are truly the rugged individualists in this country."

Example From England Mr. Craig reminded the board of a recent statement by the ministèr of finance that public works should be restricted in periods of prosperity and encouraged by public bodies during depression.

"That is just exactly what this board has been doing for the past four years," interjected Con. McBride.

Mr. Craig said that in England 2,622,000 houses have been built, at the rate of 147,300 a year, subsidized by the state and local governments.

Mayor Stewart: "I believe in public ownership, but there is a limit. Do you think it is good business for us to take the taxpayers' money and compete with men who make a living from it?"

Mr. Craig: "In, principle I agree, but we have carefully picked building sites in are areas in which there is no speculative building to-day."

Con. McBride: "Do you suggest the city can build more cheaply than the speculative builder?"

Mr. Craig: "In that it can borrow money more cheaply."

Con. McBride reminded him that the city had gone into two previous building programs and was still paying deficits.

Were Not Successful "My view is this should not be a dividend paying proposition," stated Mr. Craig. "It should be a liquidating project."

"As an investor you would judge me by my past performances," Mayor Stewart said, pointing out ventures of this nature undertaken by the city in the past have not proved successful.

The proposals presented were referred to civic officials for a report. Might Involve $2,500,000

The plan submitted by the delegation was that city council vote funds not to exceed $2,500,000 to construct housing for 750 families on 9.983 feet frontage of city-owned vacant property now valued at $554,257. The money was to be raised:

(a) partially by grant and partially by borrowing from the Dominion and provincial governments;

(b) borrowing from the Dominion government under the relief construction program;

(c) borrowing through an issue of debentures, with or without a federal guarantee.

The plan sought the retention of three additional architects by the civic architect's department to look after the general administration of the project and allocate the work among local architects. It also sought repeal of by-law 4547, which demands that all civic building plans be drawn by the architect's department.

There are hundreds of families housed in congested downtown areas, in buildings unfit for human habitation," the brief read. "These properties cannot be condemned because no better accommodation is available in central locations at low cost. Private enterprise has failed to provide decent living accommodation for the $1,000-a-year man with- in easy distance of his place of employment. Proper housing at low rentals, is a social and civic obligation, recognized in England, United States and all through Europe."
