Not just the surplus value, the actual value, too, through Wage Theft!

So basically, time and space.

"The Commons" would also work. I'm still sore about that, that was my god damn indigenous land.

I discovered one lighter that no one will steal from me. They'll give it back to me a week later when we run into each other. It's a Toronto Maple Leafs lighter. I buy them whenever I see them now.

Someone left their lighter at a house party we had. "Donnie's fucking lighter" was professionally printed on it. I have so much respect for Donnie.

This is the time to say it - the two objects in the image are examples of great design. The best design.

Lol where'd the only interesting comment chain in this thread go? I thought this was supposed to be not like reddit, but are we deleting entire threads of civil discussion now without even acknowledging it?
