I’m envious of the way the French protest their government. They’re literally setting things on fire because their schools aren’t adequate. Because the government tried to raise the retirement age. Because their politicians are shitbags.

I think the biggest obstacle to organizing in the US is the sheer distance. It takes 40 solid hours of driving to get from one side to the other. That’s not counting any breaks. France takes about 14 hours. Doable in a day or so if you push it.

Anyway, I’d sign up for a Revolution if there was a serious contender.

    I said I didn’t read

    Not reading is how you became who you are.

    Why are you still talking to me?

    Why do people go to the zoo and look at monkeys?

      That’s hilarious.

      Ooh, nice, but can’t you come up with something worse than monkeys? How am I supposed to get off from just that?

        Sneak in to your mom’s room and watch me fuck her?
