"it took a lil bit to pick up for me but i think it's got momentum for me now. also, she's so me (despite the part where she doesn't necessarily like the experimental. i cannot deny my affinity and love for the experimental, the hybrid, and the atypical)" Jan 23, 2023 12:48PM

“Oderint dum metuant.
"Let them hate me, as long as they fear me.”
Caligula

Fidel Castro
“The fact is, when men carry the same ideals in their hearts, nothing can isolate them - neither prison walls nor the sod of cemeteries. For single memory, a single spirit, a single idea, a single conscience, a single dignity will sustain them all.”
Fidel Castro, History Will Absolve Me

Simone de Beauvoir
“[Woman] is simply what man decrees; thus she is called "the sex," by which is meant that she appears essentially to the male as a sexual being. For him she is sex -- absolute sex, no less. She is defined and differentiated with reference to man and not he with reference to her; she is incidental, the inessential as opposed to the essential. He is the Subject, he is the Absolute -- she is the Other.”
Simone de Beauvoir, The Second Sex

Mark Fisher
“It's easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism.”
Mark Fisher, Capitalist Realism: Is There No Alternative?

Kurt Cobain
“Rape is one of the most terrible crimes on earth and it happens every few minutes. The problem with groups who deal with rape is that they try to educate women about how to defend themselves. What really needs to be done is teaching men not to rape. Go to the source and start there.”
Kurt Cobain
