I plan on getting a job after a year or so of unemployment, like it for a few months, then hate it, get burnt out, and get fired after 1.5 years. So, you know, the usual.

Ok if the US didn't win the war, explain Saving Private Ryan.
Innovation is 27 canned soup brands all owned by the same company and the "healthy" or vegan options cost 50-100% more.
Innovation is 15 different brands of phones that all run some half baked glitchy version of Android that loses half its battery charge life after 2 years so you have to buy a new one. But the Google Pixel is now on sale for $899.
Innovation is Voltwagon paying to fudge their emissions test because fuck the planet they got shareholders to please. They could be spending money on clean energy technology instead but yeah...
Innovation is DRM-based streaming services that all have the same slop but Netflix has cool shows they cancel after 2 seasons because altho they are really cool for the niche audience, they didn't bring in a gorbillion viewers.
I'll add more if I think of any.
We have Bone and All scheduled for tonight and gonna play catch up with Scream 6 and Final Destination 5 later this week since our marathon got screwed up after we bought Borderlands 3 lol.
If you haven't watched it, Bones and All is a pretty original take on cannibalism, as a metaphor for addiction.
I do have a few buttons on my hat that are sort of "if you know, you know". I have the Anarchist black flag, an AnCom flag, and a Anarcha-feminism flag button.
But I also have a button that says "All Cats Are Beautiful" and no one has picked up on it being an allusion to ACAB.
I forgot to look up the Disco Elysium symbol until just now and yeah, I can see that definitely working lol.
I def still need to play Disco Elysium.
I only have one tattoo and it's Hunter Thompson's initials on my wrist. I'm a fan of his work and it's sort of a reminder to me to stay weird.
It hurt and I was like "never getting one again" but now I'm considering getting an ASD infinity symbol somewhere noticable but out of the way. I don't know if I'd ever get anything that showed my political affiliations but I guess to be fair. To my edgy ass brother, at the time anarchy meant something not related to actual theory. I doubt he even knows that there is anarchist theory.
My brother legit has an A tattoo on his arm and now he's a chud libertarian/fascist.

This is my first foray into anarchist theory so I really only know a bit about mutual aid and sef-association so far, outside of the concepts that overlap more with ML, the state, police, church, etc.
I have tried listening to Anarchy and other Essays by Goldman but realized I really wasn't paying attention so I will start that over at some point. I also have some more Errico Malatesta and some Daniel Guerrin on my list. I think Guerrin might be more modern though. I did toss God and State by Bakunin on there as well. There is a few counter argument pieces I wanna get to but that will be for later.
Lol yeah. Epub*
Anarchy Works was recommended on a few reddit posts while I was looking for books to add. It seems like a modern take on the theory. Conquest of Bread has been on my list since I started reading theory because it's so highly regarded. The question is, do I wanna keep reading really old stuff and get the foundation or read something more modern for a change of pace?
I do plan on reading both this next year though.
I'm just here for that bangin' pizza party. I don't need to actually feed my kids.
