I really have like no friends.
My last friend ditched me basically, but I can't blame him. The only thing keeping us as friends was some nostalgia for the past, other than that... we really don't relate much anyway.

Man I don't even have friends here on RevLeft either.

I mean sure there's E-friends I have from playing minecraft, but they're a bunch of kids and shit.

I need a girlfriend (Internet or real life) fast.

No you wouldn't. If you aren't happy alone you aren't gonna be happy in a relationship. Your problem isn't that you don't have a girlfriend. You need to figure out what it is and work on yourself.

Naw, you aren't really looking for a girlfriend. You're looking for something else.
Might be validation because you might feel like a loser or a failure for not having a girlfriend, and so you think having one give you the right to be confident or something. Or you might be hoping for a leftist pixie dreamgirl to save you from your boring routine, and you think that "love" is some state of pure happy 24/7 and you need a girl to attain that. I can't say for sure, obvs, because I don't know you, but the stories are usually pretty similar.

The irony is that these reasons for wanting a relationship are also reasons that one would have trouble finding or being in one!

Like I said, you need to be working on you and recognize that your problems are for you to solve and a relationship won't fix them.

okay, you're weird. In a good way, though. I never smoked a cigarette, even didn't try. But I smooked weed sometimes some years ago. Had no real effect on me, so I stopped doing it. Anyway, don't smoke, dude! It's such an annoying habit.

Yeah, I know I shouldn't. I honestly only do it every now and again, mainly when I'm stressed. There is no reason it should physically calm me down but I think it's psychological.

I'm really bored by all this men-women-bullshit on facebook, you know like, women are this and men are that and they're soooo different and women are a myth and no one will understand them ever and blah blah blah. I don't give a fuck about this crap. And I hate playing games, like making myself scarce so that the guy can be the hunter and conquer me and I must be like, no sex until the third date and so on. If I want it, I'm gonna go for it, and if not, then it won't be happening even after the 20th date. And if I like a guy, he will notice it. I prefer it the easy way.

Damn I hate rude customers (I work as a fast food drive thru cashier). But at the same time I shouldn't be surprised. The US is a capitalist country, and thus elements of fascism and liberalism are an every day occurrence.

We aren't paid to like our jobs, we are just paid to do them.

I'm nice to customers on the grounds that I'm not a jerk. But of course customers are still rude to me. But as I said before, it's just business. I'm only at my job to make money, and they only stop there to get food.

But once the capitalist system is destroyed, these problems will be a thing of the past.

I dunno about that post, but the issue is how you talk about women in general. Most of your posts are about wanting a girlfriend or how we need more women here (because you want to date one). It's a little much.

Either way, I think you ought to seek professional help if you're dealing with suicidal ideation. This life makes tatters out of us and a therapist can help you. Like I said before, you're pre-occupied with getting into a relationship because you think it'll solve your actual problems.

It is 12:01 on the beginning of my third day without caffeine. I am quitting! The headaches come and go and have been fairly mild so far. Also I have a cold. What a time to invite the withdrawals.

Am I committing the folly of lifestylist asceticism? You might think so! But I consumed way too much caffeine and am pretty jumpy and jittery as it is, so... (also I've noticed I don't need it to wake up.)

I'll never give up masturbation though. I wonder, sometimes, how many poor druggies in pursuit of that dopamine boost just never learned how to please themselves!

i have honestly lost count of how many times this has happened to me. Honestly, the best thing to do from what I've learned is just to steel yourself and try not to do anything too dumb, because I certainly haven't improved my quality of life by pining after people I can't/shouldn't go after.

Yeah that is actually good advice in this case, its not something I'm going to do anything about. In fact I know it would be dumb for me to do anything about it. I don't know what it is with me and older folks though, I should really just focus on people around my age most likely.

RE: Old Rosie, I once sat in a pub and drank old Rosie all morning/afternoon. It ended up with me falling asleep in said pub and having some random woman paint my face with make up whilst I was asleep. It would have been fine if it ended there however when I awoke a bit later (still very, very drunk, in fact I think the term "awoke" might be giving me too much credit.) I decided that I would declare to the entire pub my wish that they should all develop some form of horrific cancer and that I was on my way to molest members of the royal family. A friend then escorted me home as I took the opportunity to insult every human being (and one dog) I encountered on the way all while still wearing make-up. To this day I have no idea how I managed to make it through that day without being arrested or having someone lay into me.

Public sector is ineffective, maybe we should squeeze them a little bit. Hey, we need universal education, as long as it teaches entrepreneurship.

or, at least, that's how i feel when i feel this feeling, which is too often

Random thoughts:

Emma Goldman blows my mind every time I read her work; I read through like three different things of hers on the anarchist archive, and I think my favorite was "marriage and love". Currently trying to decide if I should read Gloria Steinem or Judith Butler; I read some Steinem in college and it was amazing, but Butler seems really intriguing. I really wish I had a circle of intellectual friends who I could discuss this sort of shit with, and I'm probably going to end up emailing my old professor to ask her her opinions.

Amount of PDA/touching/etc. in non-American countries weirds me out. Blowing me kisses and shit when we're good friends is still, to me, saying "let's fuck", even though I know this person has no intentions of doing that. It's still weird and confusing. I'm not a very touchy-feely person unless I'm also romantically involved. Even standing in line with people less than like 2-3 feet away creeps me the fuck out, and I've been told that outside of America it's even worse re: personal space.

I wish I had better facial hair, not that it matters, because all of my friends seem to agree that my chances of getting the job I'll be interviewing for are improved tenfold if I go in clean shaven. Last interview I didn't bother to shave and I didn't get it, but I also don't think the woman doing the interview liked my personality either. Oh well.

I also wish I had people willing to discuss theory with me. All of my friends have given up on politics at this point and the ones that haven't are in a women only reading group. We were out Saturday and one of my friends is talking about their little sister trying to get a job with the CIA, and no one even raised an eyebrow. She wasn't a leftist exactly but I went to anti-war rallies with her for fucks sake. I'm like the avatar of "gotta do what you gotta do" but that is too much even for me.

I really don't read a whole lot of theory now, without people to share it or build on it with, it feels kind of pointless. I can feel the general apathy setting in on me, it's upsetting but I'm not really sure what to do.

I got really into tiqqun a year or two ago and it was so frustrating because no one I interact with is into reading that shit anymore haha. I was part of a baudrilliard group here once that lasted all of -1 sessions, I think I was the only one who read the first chapter, it was a bummer.

I have a thing by tiqqun right now, if you're interested in helping me get through it that'd be awesome.

"This Is Not A Program" by Tiqqun is pretty good, probably the most accessible thing written by them (the first part of the two-part book, anyway...the second part is pretty bad)

I feel like it still required a lot of background familiarly of 60s France and Italy, but it ended up making the coming insurrection a lot clearer. I had read it a few years earlier during my rrradical cadre stint and had been completely baffled by it at the time.

I was about to start in on their writings in general (I have a thing that's just called "Tiqqun: Exercises in Critical Metaphysics"), apparently it isn't a great translation but I figure I can deal with it. But yeah, it seems like it'll be a little dense.

I do have some understanding of the concepts they talk about through friends who've discussed them but I don't really know how accurate my understanding of them are (bloom and the young girl).

Anyway yeah I'll start on that tonight.

So they put out two journals which is where the bulk of their writings come from. The one you have is the first I believe, but their stuff can be read in any kind of order so it's not like it matters. Recently MIT press took 3 or 4 of their longer essays and turned them into books with nice translations, but they're pretty expensive IMO for shit that you can find online for free.

https://tiqqun.jottit.com/

http://www.bloom0101.org/translations.html

Between those two links that should be most of what they wrote.

I think bloom is my favorite out of everything, it's definitely left me in a particular mood for the last year or so since I read it.

Yeah that is true, it helped me that i'd already learned a fair deal about 60's/70's Italy beforehand, through books like "Storming Heaven", "Books for Burning", "Memoirs of an Italian Terrorist" and some other ones. They're at their best when they're analyzing the concrete political actions of people in the radical scene, and not getting into the silly metaphysical goobledeegook of Agamben or Guattari or Deleuze or whatever other hack they find interesting for some mysterious reason.

You're a cretin inbred.

Does anyone here know if there's any validity to the claim that the term barbarian comes from the romans who thought that any language besides their own sounded like "bar bar bar"? Furthermore, did they really consider it barbaric to wear pants?

My source is the crash course world history guy (who I don't really like) so I was wondering if he was right.

I mean, even in the arena of solo female pop singers Taylor Swift isn't particularly good, I can think of a number of acts I like more like Banks, Lorde, Tove Lo, etc. I like the darker electronic sound and the themes of the songs are more interesting/relatable than Taylor Swift's music.

I actually have a hard time believing that you haven't heard any of Swift's crap though, they play it in a lot of public spaces LOL

Well I thought I had never heard a phish song until I actually listened to a mixtape my friend made and recognized a bunch of them. I've just never intentionally listened her I guess is what I meant, I try to prevent the world from invading my reality as much as possible

The term "barbarian" is Greek in origin, from "barbaros", supposedly an onomatopoeia for harsh-sounding speech, "bar bar bar". Of course the Greeks didn't really think that foreign languages sounded like "bar bar bar", just as Americans don't think people who babble sound like "yadda yadda yadda".

Trousers were considered, not so much "barbaric", as oriental, by the Greeks and those Romans who idolised Greeks, since they were standard attire in Persia. They were thought to be effeminate as well, since obviously a real man would want his bollocks to freeze off. Trousers were more accepted in the late Roman Empire, though.
