I didn't even realize you put in the post haha. It's been said many times before, but this site has the best emojis!

Socialism is when the government does stuff, and it's more socialism the more stuff it does, and if it does a real lot of stuff, it's Communism!

Triceratops. First off, they're herbivores. Second, they look really cool with horns and a beak. There's not much we know about them, but I think it's cool that their horns may have mostly been used to identify each other and they were likely quite social. I'm imagining them being something like a dinosaur version of a bison, which is incidentally my favorite mammal.

What's wrong with gigantosaurus?

Don't think I've heard about therizinosaurus before. They are terrifying!

In contrast, the commodity-form has nothing at all to do with labor products’ physical nature or the thing-to-thing relationships arising from it, and the same holds for the value relation of labor products, within which that form is expressed. Here, it is only a particular social relation among people that assumes, for these people themselves, the phantasmagoric form of a relation among things. To find an analogy, we have to travel into the misty place that is the religious world, where things produced by the human mind seem endowed with lives of their own: they seem to be autonomous figures interacting with one another and human beings. So it is in the commodity world, too, but with things produced by human hands. I call this “fetishism”; labor products become fetishes the moment they are produced as commodities, and this fetishism is thus inseparable from commodity production.

I really enjoyed The Viewing with Peter Weller.
