She subsequently taught philosophy at the Escuela Normal Superior (1931-1934).
Convinced that to understand the workers 'struggles one must share the living conditions of the proletariat, she dropped out of education and, from 1934 to 1935, was a worker in the Renault factories, an experience that she described in The Workers' Condition, which would not see the light of day until 1951. .
At the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939), she Simone Weil went to the front of Barcelona, where she fought alongside the Republicans against the military uprising led by General Francisco Franco.

Got attacked by two pitbulls today, both me and my dog survived somehow. He got two minor bites, I had to get a couple of tendons and a muscle stitched up. Can I get a W in the chat.
The doctor was telling me they're sweethearts as she was stitching me up. I'm not anti pitbull, but lol.
Edit: she was amazing btw. Not a slight against her at all.
Also I picked up my dog instinctively to protect him, which I think saved him because i got their attention. I've previously ran into traffic to get my old dog. I'm definitely going to die in a fruitless attempt to save my dog.
Twerking and singing about your pussy? SATANIC.
Having your knee on a black man's throat for 10 minutes while he calls out for his mother then dies? GOOD CHRISTIAN SHIT.
meanwhile in Judaism/christianity
Have you heard a legend of a dude who wrestled angel? Like
And a man wrestled with him until the breaking of the day. When the man saw that he did not prevail against Jacob, he touched his hip socket, and Jacob's hip was put out of joint as he wrestled with him. Then he said, "Let me go, for the day has broken." But Jacob said, “I will not let you go unless you bless me.” And he said to him, “What is your name?” And he said, "Jacob." Then he said, "Your name shall no longer be called Jacob, but Israel, for you have striven with God and with men, and have prevailed." But tbh significantly less similar then I remembered, so I’ll hide my comment
OG mythos right there, lol. But I somehow thought he had him pinned or something
In universities, black people have to show they're black enough to be an authority on black issues. Slam cadence is a great way to do this, but if you go up to the podium and talk in AAVE, god help you.
universities hate black people, but in the age of standpoint epistemology, blackness is profitable. You've just got to do blackness in the right way. The artistic way. The intellectual way. Not like those anti-intellectual lumpens in the post-industrial suburbs. Their blackness isn't profitable as knowledge, only as the object of study. But don't worry, they'll send a black anthropologist who talks in slam cadence to study you.
So does the Epstein DNA kick in all at once or does it take a couple days
At the risk of seeming ridiculous, let me say that the true revolutionary is guided by a great feeling of love. It is impossible to think of a genuine revolutionary lacking this quality. [...] We must strive every day so that this love of living humanity will be transformed into actual deeds, into acts that serve as examples, as a moving force.

It's pretty fucking scary how easy it is to slide back into complacency while telling yourself you're an active leftist, especially when you've got a salary. Then you remember we've got 7 years til the climate point of no return and you have a fucking kid and have to SNAP OUT OF IT YOU STUPID LIB
how are you supposed to do literally anything if you don't already have a decent amount of savings
I'd like to find a realistic van life youtube channel. So many are just peppy couples with annoying ukelele background music.
I wanna see a vlog of a guy looking for a good place to drop a log.
As someone whos plagued with surprise, life altering urges to shit sometimes, rest stops are not regular enough.
A lot are gross enough I rather squat in a ditch tbh.
Corona is absolutely wrecking me and showing no sign of letting up, but at least I am watching Star Trek instead of working.
