Anyone else a coffee nerd? I have an Orea v4 coming today, and some nice Ethiopian that I got from Little Wolf. I'm really stoked to give it a shot. I think I'm going to do a 14:1 with 250ml and a coarser grind to start, but if anyone has recipe suggestions I'd love to hear them!
So, today I am starting a book that has been on my shelf for over a year, intimidating me. I decided to try to finally tackle it and see where it takes me.
Critique of Everyday Life by Henri Lefebvre

Agreed. There's an odd refusal to even articulate this slide into fascism. I don't know the answer. I try to educate myself and others, that's all I know to do.
Reading Lenin lately and it makes me wonder where the agitators and the leaders are in today's world. We need them desperately.
I'm watching a short documentary about the EZLN and as the documentarians are traveling into Zapatista territory a sign is hanging, stating that fact, but also carried a quote I liked:
"The word 'hope' does not exist for one who does not fight."
I like that there's a poignancy to it.

Lack of leadership. Lack of unity. Lack of education -political, economic and social.
Fear.

Whence comes the hue that stains the workers' flag so red? The rich have dyed it deep with the blood of our slaughtered dead.
It is they who have sown the tempest, they who have made it war. Our children shall win to freedom; theirs shall pay the score.

I found this gem when I was in my early teens and I still listen to it today!
Made me chuckle on this bleggh Wednesday morning:
From Existential Comics. Not sure why there's no credit in the image.

“If the only thing keeping a person decent is the expectation of divine reward, then brother, that person is a piece of shit. And I’d like to get as many of them out in the open as possible. You gotta get together and tell yourself stories that violate every law of the universe just to get through the goddamn day? What’s that say about your reality?”

I mean, that's a pretty defeatist, reactionary response, but alright?
"All we can see now are the destitute masses, and the ignoble apparatus of domination which lies over them, the unlovely art of power. There is nothing left to seduce us. Everywhere is a bare-faced display of force: rifles, armored cars, policemen."

I'm impressed by the scope of this book. Impressed by how daunting the dialectics of the everyday are. A tome is absolutely the way to describe this.
I can usually power through theory pretty quickly, but this takes DIGESTING. I'm having to pause and contemplate, re-read, etc...
I'm impressed so far.
I can understand that, but try to remember that sharing knowledge and educating are always thankless tasks. Most of the time it falls on deaf ears, but it sometimes reaches someone who needed it and who will absorb it and take it to heart. Education and educating are some of the most valuable things we have in this god forsaken world; without them we are truly fucked. Much love to you.
I'm not doing anything economically, but I have to go to work. I work in a medical adjacent field so bailing today would have put a lot of people who need help in a bad way.
