Life in late capitalism can be vexing, alienating, fragmenting, and otherwise frustrating. There are many wonderful things in my life, but I'm more likely to talk about what's bad rather than what's good. I'm going to try to post one good thing here each day, and if you would join in by adding a good thing from your day in the comments, I'd love it--I'd absolutely love it. --RR

I am grateful to two friends today for their willingness to talk with me when I was having a hard time, even though they put their own work on hold to do so.
... I can relate to this... I wished I had had someone to talk to last night, other than my Mom who would have gotten all worked out so Id eventually have to try to calm her down instead of myself, but there was no one, at least not that late, or maybe not at all - so it's really great to have friends that listen.
Dear Meri--Thanks so much for leaving this comment. I am sorry you were in that situation. I wish I could have been there to talk with you and listen. Always know I'm sending you good thoughts from a distance.
