Dear Soulless Drones:
When you spend money on my art, you're not paying for something that matters to you (like a cool novel, painting or song). You're paying for something that matters to me: me. Me experimenting, me failing, me worrying about money, me having me time to do me things. Only wild free spirits encounter these things. Fork it over. - rebekah joy plett

Dear Rebekah, I will not be spending money on your art. Love, Soulless Drone.

i appreciate that you can't just make a statement like that -- who would believe it? -- it must be attributed to anonymous

Yeah, Washington's leek prices are THRU THE ROOF.

*rant about how it's often the urban planners who encourage communities to start farmer's markets and make space for urban farming and how we can't rely on our local grocery stores to provide fresh produce to food deserts and how the good supermarkets won't move to those areas cuz there's not enough money so it's a MARKET FAILURE and the government does have to step in, thank you*

I want really for real universal health care, which is absolutely not the same as whatever self-righteous oomph having fresh veg gives me.

I mean I read the China Study and all but that's still not going to give me proper maternity leave.

did you like my "market failure" double entendre?

Neither could I

set the controls for the heart of the sun (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 4 September 2012 21:05 (eleven years ago) link

being generous theyre maybe 5 of the 7 best sentences ive ever read

lag∞n, Tuesday, 4 September 2012 21:05 (eleven years ago) link

but none of those sentences talk about free food, or zombies, or mustaches, or bacon

I'm so torn

"What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving."

i can't tell if it has a commie slant or a libertarian slant

NASCAR, surfing, raising chickens, owning land (zachlyon), Tuesday, 4 September 2012 21:18 (eleven years ago) link

Pretty sure it's libertarian.

I'm assuming that the person doesn't mean the five best sentences grammatically, because those are five of the grammatically worst sentences I've read. It's a shame that such wonderful ideas have to be brought down by questionable literary merit.

My salary is x and I work for salary so I deserve all of x

that is pretty much what they're saying

based on the person who posted it? libertarian slant

It's five sentences of "wealth redistribution is evil illogical immoral and ruinous" , how could that be communist?

ledge, Tuesday, 4 September 2012 21:38 (eleven years ago) link

Um, yeah. I'm a bit confused about how the hell you can read any of that as even slightly Commie. It's pretty much the antithesis.

If you buy fire insurance and your house doesn't burn down, then all you are doing is paying to rebuild the houses of OTHER PEOPLE!

Aimless, Tuesday, 4 September 2012 21:44 (eleven years ago) link

the one sentence is legit accidentally a communist sentiment

"What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving."

since it's the basis of labor theory of value + exploitation

Mordy, Tuesday, 4 September 2012 21:53 (eleven years ago) link

yes, it sort of takes the wind out of the whole inheritance thing too

Author ~ Coach ~ Goddess (s1ocki), Tuesday, 4 September 2012 22:10 (eleven years ago) link

oh lol my brain was rewriting the implied "welfare queen" as underpaid laborers and the "lazy ppl" as rich ruling class

i am naive, i keep assuming people don't still believe this shit, fuck a reagan

NASCAR, surfing, raising chickens, owning land (zachlyon), Tuesday, 4 September 2012 22:22 (eleven years ago) link

or rather rewriting both as rich ruling class and then the non-lazy people as laborers

i dunno i'm confused now, why does it have to be so many sentences

NASCAR, surfing, raising chickens, owning land (zachlyon), Tuesday, 4 September 2012 22:24 (eleven years ago) link

Because they are the best.

Hamster of Legend (J3ff T.), Tuesday, 4 September 2012 22:38 (eleven years ago) link

isn't taxation of the rich etc. pretty much dwarfed by the government's potential ability to create wealth as if by magic by borrowing money and spending it on infrastructure
