one of my marxist friends recently recommended me to read kollontai as part of my introductory list and i wanted to ask what do you think of her? (i'd make this an ask but bluesky's not tumblr so sry if im spamming this comment section ><)

folk who aren't yet enlightened may sometimes need these idea growth media to begin radicalising, not everyone will read lenin out of the blue unfortunately. entrypoints and conditioning are sometimes needed
however they are just that. entrypoints
(plus hailing a corporate one *is* pathetic yeah :D)

like are they nazi? yeah but thats not the root of the problem
is that whatcha meant?

i mean yes but also it's not like the so-called trump is the only one of its kind or solely responsible? i was moreso alluding to rich fucks etc. as a joint class, although maybe nazi isnt the best term to describe that either

personal cars are just an excuse to waste space, metal and other resources to make someone rich
all cars should be nationalised and made free use and all car manufacturing past that point should be shut down
(also public transport is much better anyway :D)

affini our beloved, oh when will you come save us...

like, "ah yes if the citizens of the great and powerful (pfft) united states of bafoonery would rather be here we know we're doing good" and then they get a marginally easier process then your average latin american
but that's just speculation

"no country" might be a stretch. i live in spain and i personally know asylum seekers from nazi america here admitted into official programs :D
i feel like there's a certain fleur of white favouritism aiding these kind of cases

hii

as a trans sapphic: both are hard :3

i'm considered attractive yet it rarely happens with me ><
either my social circle has better morals or i'm doing something wrong

this! i knew for a long time that "everything that happens between consenting adults is legal" or something akin to that should ideally be a *constitutionally mandated freedom* in every decent country

and just like that it's done!
it turned out seven layers high and i made the top one into a heart cause there wasn't enough dough for a square
somewhat impulsively i used the rest of the cream on the cake's top and sides, but i don't think it'll hurt anything but my ability to safely transport it :D

with the final layers cut & in the oven, time for postprocessing!
i found 2.5 tablespoons to be a good amount to cover the whole surface without spilling out too much cream. though alarmingly it seems to have used way less cream than i have prepared so i might have needed to put on more

grandma recommends putting these on 180°C for 5-8 minutes (for americans: multiply by 7/4 & add 32 to get °F)
either my oven's weak or i didn't roll them thin enough, but they only seemed ready around the 10m mark :D
this is quite tasty already (sry cake, you'll have a bite out of your top layer)

while the oven is warming up, i'm making cream for the cake! that one's really easy, 300g sour cream + 1 cup sugar.
local sour cream is quite thick but apparently it becomes much thinner with sugar! and also omg this cream is already so delicious i might mix it as a drink on the regular :D

from here on out, grandma recommends to split the dough in six equal parts and roll them into circles. we'll stack them later
don't have a rolling pin so i used the side of a glass to roll them. neither do i have a plate of needed size to cut a circle out, so my cake will have to be square :D

and that was four cups of flour, everybody
my mom taught me to add flour until the dough stops sticking to fingers, based on that metric what i had was really a cup
one day i will learn to follow flour containment protocols. that day is not today
also i think this is my best looking dough to date :D
