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
10/14: warmth
My school office is very cold and has been for years; my suite-mate and I have complained about it, but there's no way they can fix the ducting that is creating the problem. The facilities people at school just tell us to use space-heaters (which are technically against the rules). Now that my arthritis is worse, the cold is taking more of a toll, and my space-heater was not helping enough. Earlier this week I was so chilled and creaky at the end of the work-day that my whole body ached and throbbed. Then I decided to try a good space-heater that we have at home: Chris brought it up to my office and it was perfect. A nice even heat.
