Well thanks to the memory thing I lost your reply for a month. I too read articles and watch and listen to books but the only part of my memory that works close to normal is my involuntary episodic memory so I sort of have to take an information bath and hope anything will make it through to be triggered later. History is very dry and so is philosophy which I think would be what makes up theory generally, that means cognitive friction. On some level you have absorbed some of the spirit of the thing or you wouldn’t be a leftist, and there is always fully automated space communism for the days you cant handle the cognitive burden. Patrick is a treasure
Also, since we last spoke I ended up reading The Left Hand of Darkness and The Dispossessed, which I both loved very much. Since we share this boat of distaste for dry reading, you might find them similarly worthwhile to read.

All good.

Found both on zaudiobooks.com and bookmarked and will set a reminder to listen so they dont get lost amongst the other forgotten things. Thank you.
