Come erravamo - 7

La volontà del capitalista consiste certamente nel prendere quanto più è possibile. Ciò che noi dobbiamo fare non è di parlare della sua volontà, ma di indagare la sua forza, i limiti di questa forza e il carattere di questi limiti.

K. Marx, [Value, Price and Profit, 1865], Salario, Prezzo e Profitto, Roma, Editori Riuniti, 2024 [Trad. Palmiro Togliatti]

Copertina: Per quanto abbia cercato, nella mio elettrolibro non ho trovato riferimenti all'immagine di copertina. Mi sembra strano che non abbiano attribuito il disegno con una chiara indicazione di chi fece quel lavoro… Rimedio io, almeno per questo post: l'immagine è stata tratta dal fumetto Bringing Up Father (Alcibaldo e Petronilla), disegnato a partire del 1913 dallo statunitense George McManus.

Arcibaldo: Sono diventato ricco col duro lavoro Operaio: Ma di chi?

I am deprived of content why does it always have to be the niche-ish 1995 movies that I fixate on aggressively and then discover there is literally no online fandom other than the most obscure accounts ever

PLEASE, IF YOU LIKE THE USUAL SUSPECTS, TALK TO ME. I NEED A FANDOM. I CAN'T CARRY ON ALONE.

The Block Island Sound: Horror On My Home Turf

And now, since it’s both National Rhode Island Day as well as the Halloween season, news of a spooky film set on a small island in the smallest state. I caught The Block Island Sound (2021) on Netflix a few months ago, drawn by the setting, which is located in the Rhode Island county in which I grew up, and where I spent a good bit of time in my youth. Part of the money I earned for theatre…
