bringing cards everywhere i go

i always always carry a pack of cards in my bag. my cards have been to all the countries i’ve been to and have been soaking wet, in snow, in sand... they will fall apart soon. i probably end up using them 50% of the time but at this point they are a safe item that i know i can whip out if you need to spice it up with your friends. i love learning new card games and my goal for 2025 is to ask more strangers to join in and play a few rounds with me and my friends.

THE ANARCHIST LIBRARY & INTERNET ARCHIVE

my two-pence as a fellow drop out. First and foremost speak - it’s easy to feel inferior but most importantly speak to people as that’s how you become secure in your knowledge and learn how to articulate yourself. I have many issues with academia, one of them being the forms and structures you’re expected to follow. it‘s selective and exclusive, as well as being inherently elitist especially in countries where you have to pay for higher education. I could write and essay on this, but right now I’ll only argue for what i think is the most fundamental and that is: In any educational institution you are taught a specific way of articulating and formulating yourself. This structure is learned and as a society it’s what we associate with intellectualisation and our concept of knowledge as its the format which has prevailed (historically only accessible to the privileged few with money). This Is also tied to a western obsession with the literary word where other forms of communication are valued to a lesser extent. There are lesser opportunities if you chose to go a route outside of education - because it’s less likely to economically make profit. i think it’s important to remember that academia does not determine how clever you are, its a skill and a way of articulating yourself - your ideas may be infinitely more progressive and unprecedented but within these institutions it will always depends on how you formulate and intellectually present yourself. dont fear having a dialogue with other people because it will improve your skill at communicating in person- which undoubtedly has more impact than the written word ever had, and ever will have. we all digest information differently- wether that’s audio, visual, through words written on a page or a video of someone talking. the internet archive is incredible because of its many different mediums and everything is accessible for FREE!! https://archive.org The anarchist library is good for reading up on revolutionary ideas ;)

NORMALISE DRESSING UP RICH WITHOUT BEING RICH.

i wanna infiltrate more rich spaces with my broke arse- yes I will sneak in my meal deal. But in the sense that I will “dress up” for the occasion - but my clothes won’t be designer and will have loose strings because I don’t feed into the consumerist hell hole. so I showed up to the opera in full leather (second hand). if people with money can appropriate and fetishise working class style and culture, then it’s only right for me to return the favour.
