Yeah I read theory
Picture of label for Dr. Bronner’s Magic Soaps, 18-in-1 Hemp Peppermint PURE-CASTILLE SOAP Too many words to share here but here is a sample: “Absolute cleanliness is Godliness! Who else but God gave man Love that can spark mere dust to life! Poetry, uniting All-One! All brave! All life! Who else but God! "Listen Children Eternal Father Eternally One!" Einstein, 1939, after Nazis & Commies united, proposed spacebombs that destroy all, unless we finally teach the Moral ABC's the real Rabbi Hillel taught Jesus to unite all in All-One-God-Faith. As teach astronomers Abraham-Israel-Moses-Buddha-Hillel-Jesus-Spinoza-Paine-Sagan & Mohammed, inspired every 76 years, 6000 years by the Messenger of God's Law, the Messiah, Halley's Comet: "WERE ALL ONE OR NONE!" "THERE IS NO GOD BUT GOD!" "TEACH LOVE THY EÑEMY!" "LISTEN CHILDREN ETERNAL FATHER ETERNALLY ONE!" Israel-Moses Buddha-Jesus-Mohammed: ONE! ALL-ONE st: IfI'm not for me, who am I? Nobody. 2nd: Yet, if I'm only for me, what am I? Nothing! 3rd: If not now, when? Once More: Unless constructive selfish I work hard, like Mark Spitz, perfecting first mi bsolute nothing can help me! 4th: Only hard work-God's Law can save us, but if we teach only our clan? We're all hated then! So, we must teach friend & enemy, the whole Human race, the full-truti ard-work, free speech, press-&-profitsharing Moral ABC's All-One-God-Faith, lighting-like, 6-billion strong, for we're All-One or none! All-One-God-Faith, as teach the African shepherd-astronomer Abraham & Israel, for 6000-years, since the year 1: "LISTEN CHILDREN ETERNAL FATHER ETERNALLY ONE!" - WE'RE ONE! ALL-ONE! EXCEPTIONS ETERNALLY? NONE! ABSOLUTE NONE 5th: Whatever unites mankind is better than whatever divides us! Yet, if absolute unselfish I am not for me, I'm not but classless, raceless, starving masses, never free nor brave! Only constructive-selfish I work hard perfecting first me” etc

Marx descended into Chart Town (formerly called Blight Town) in Cap vol 3. Then Engels circles back 40 pages later to say “yeah Marx’s figures are off, I’ll fix them though.”

Goddammit man
two pages from Capital Vol 3 with inscrutable charts about Differential Rent; followed by the meme “i ain’t reading all that. i’m happy for u tho. or sorry that happened”

Turns out Toad is an Industrial Capitalist who only affects a working class persona (no doubt to insulate himself from responsibility for his many moral crimes)
Toad from Mario Kart is jumping out of his go-kart in front of a factory. There are shipping containers on the ground that say “Toad Industries.”

My friend told me she’s finally switching from Google TV to an Apple TV after years of my evangelism
Me: It's just reassuring to know that there is good in this world, and that it's worth fighting for Me: All of us have to play our part, and some may go to their grave not knowing the influence they've had Me: I just hope this can be a lesson to future generations. Don't stop fighting. Truth is revealed through struggle. Change is possible Her: I'm ignoring you now Me: So it is for those who struggle to shine light into darkness Me: Yes 1pm tomorrow is fine

Good Reddit
Reddit post from user strongest man: It's important to remember that "gay" as its used now did not exist in Melville's time. There was no word for gay people so Melville could not identify as gay or straight or anything but a sailor, a profession long associated with gay sex, from buccaneers to The Village People. Were I a gambler I would bet Melville had sex with at least one dude, probably many dudes. It gets lonely at sea and Melville was kind of a babe. He has a tender, lumberjack vibe that I, for one, would find irresistible were I covered in sun blisters and spermaceti, trading horror stories about giant squids and whales. I would hold his magnificent beard for comfort. Maybe you've seen these already but LARB has a neat article on this subject and how one might translate the scant evidence of Melville/Hawthorns gay sex into criticism. https://lareviewofbooks.org/article/historys-dick-jokes-on-melville-and-hawthorne/ 18 upvotes
