The issue with Neoliberalism isn't that it doesn't work, it's that it only works once. You can sell the family silver once, you can strip the copper out of the walls once, you can burn the furniture to keep warm once. But then you have to come up with something else!

/13 Why? For proximity to power. For prestige. For attention.
Some tongues were made to praise God. Some tongues were made to sing. Some were made for poetry, some for prose, some to agitate and some to soothe.

living in rent-controlled housing means a lot of non-English speakers, and whenever I walk past such a conversation I remember that there are two reactions one can have:
1) anger that someone is different from you
2) relief that there are things in the world that you are not expected to understand
