Per my last email, this is on my radar, but I really don't have the bandwidth to deal with it at the moment. I'm just following up with you really quickly, please advise on how'd you'd like to proceed. Correct me if I'm wrong, but couldn't Tanya in HR take lead on this?
You are a good parent. My mom introduced me as a child, and it's still one of our favorite movies, and something we enjoy watching together.
In Hinduism, Ananda means something akin to ecstatic or joyous, and swamis will often take it as part of their name. Such as Vivekananda, or Yogananda. I've always loved that, and Vivekananda is a major player in forming my personal philosophies about life.
I still keep a pencil in my car. I know there's no cassette to play, but my car feels naked with a pencil rolling around the center console or in the little tray on the dash.
Pumpkin Socialist Latte Party of Liberation
I mean, I could understand liberal tears. Liberal blood. Liberal sweat, at a stretch. But liberal cum? That just sounds like you're offering to blow Joe Biden.
I'd like to know more!
I always thought they were called French fries because they're French style, as in cut into long thing pieces. Til!
Not who you asked, but I use podbean and have recently started using antennapod. Both are really good, but antennapod is open source from what I understand, and I've been able to find more podcasts on it. Only gripes with it are that you can't rate the podcasts on it, and you can't set it play all episodes of a certain podcast automatically. You have to add them to a queue manually and play from the queue. Other than that it's absolutely fantastic.
Honestly, as of right now, not really. I gots the brain fog. But azure scapegoat I think is one decent YouTuber. Noncompete may have a video on Cuba, and I believe prof. Richard Wolff does as well.
I'm not a Marxist, though, so my knowledge of state socialism is cursory other than theory. I'm an anarcho-communist, and my knowledge and interests lie more towards that direction.
This isn't on housing (I really can't remember which video is good on that topic, but I know it's a findable thing), but how elections work in Cuba. Worth watching: https://youtu.be/2aMsi-A56ds?si=SvD6sZeN5L5vvni9
I will say, one of the things to note about state socialist countries, even if you disagree with them, is they're often derided for being authoritarian (and IMHO, they are), but they're always less authoritarian than what came before. The USSR had problems, yeah, but it was leaps and bounds better than czarist Russia. Cuba has some issues, but compared to the open air slave-run casino it was before the revolution, it's a damn sight better. And if you compare it to it's neighbors, it's doing amazingly well, even with the insane embargo. Just something to think about, democracy (in the sense of actual control by the people) has increased in each society that has gone that route. Imagine, then, what a place like the US, with our big talk democratic ideals would look like if it did. Just food for thought.
Getting screwed by a dude I had no interest in, in the back of my car, after driving him to his family's house an hour away.
