ngl I kinda hate it when people come on social media to talk about how great it is to go outside but then today I went on a bike ride by the canal and I could feel myself getting high on my own supply (of endorphins) so yeah. The grass touchers are right.

Following discussion on the Empire podcast, I looked up pictures of young Stalin and now I’m imagining an alternate history where Che Guevara became a reviled murderous dictator, while Stalin was executed by counter-revolutionaries and now this picture is plastered over merch for young idealists:
