Around and talking to other groups just for practice but meh I’m tired and wanted to walk away with a somewhat W. Very funny tho apparently the YDSA group blew up last year bc leftist infighting (classic) so now they only have 10 ppl. But yeah I’m curious so I’m go to meeting

I have really weird habits sometimes lol - like very uncharacteristic activity. Usually this is bc I’m curious I think and then I do something outgoing. Today I went to the library in between classes and looked at books for over an hour which ig is pretty individual but still

Then after my last class I went to this club fair thing (I think mostly for freshmen but w/e) and I was really only interested in YDSA but it was busy and I was really tired and uncomfy so I went home. But now I just went BACK OUT and walked all the way out just to talk to

I feel really cute rn, having long hair is so so nice

I have a hard time telling if discussions are so bad because ppl feel constrained socially or if they just haven’t thought that much. Latter makes sense bc class incentivize just getting work done not thinking deep and this might be first time thinking about, but still so boring

Former influences too for sure (my personal experience) but I get the sense that most ppl just don’t have anything interesting to say on the topic regardless of social factors

Ofc I still like discussion and community based learning conceptually, but without proper institutions (or lakethereof [abolish compulsory school]) it’s just really frustrating and mostly worthless. Would rather listen to one person operating within the banking model

Because at least I’ll be introduced to new concepts and ideas. Discussions within banking model are just so shit lmao

extremely interesting, still skeptical about the state and how the author defines "socialism", but yeah theory struggles with the empirical reality - also i recognize like all the references thats so cool https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/pdf/10.1177/08969205211031624

reading from democracy to freedom, very interesting but I still worry about consistency. like institutionalizing charity as welfare is far more effective, and even with a gift economy scare resources still need to be allocated. I worry that free association will not be able to

Organization, there is some reasonable level of anxiety to be had over your own well-being if your partner can’t provide that. And ig just internalizing that or wanting to meet the expectations of someone that means a lot to me is understandable

And I always do this thing where I abstract it away rather than dealing with my feelings, and at this point I don’t really feel much. Ig I got nothing then. Still feel like I didn’t successfully express myself and let it out, but there’s nothing left

Have to assimilate. And I’m sure I’ll be able to, and find some bullshit career that I’ll hate but will come to terms with. Just I’m not there right now, and that’s a little awk. Which brings me to another thing that I’ve been thinking about since we broke up which is pretty odd

“What does she see in me” type thing. Obvious answer is that she just liked my personality and I could be fun/supportive or whatever, but there’s still this weird feeling. Like if I’m genuinely deconstructing the question it’s that in capitalist comp mono culture,

It’s assumed that “your” one “partner” will have a well providing job and that people should be on their path to do that otherwise there’s no point in being with them. Which when broken down is like ok yeah that’s silly as shit, but charitably because that’s the assumed

Anything about myself since then, at least not super substantially. Like Gail has a ton of future life shit working, and from my perspective seems absolutely ready to take on the world (I’m sure she would disagree, but she is just really capable and I know she can handle so much)

But then there’s me with no job/internship, no clue about the future, living completely off parents, and while I conceptually entirely agree that all the standards and coercion placed upon people are bullshit, doesn’t stop them from being standard and expected and someday I’ll
