Going through old papers I find this gem from my Randian past: a very short sf story that I wrote in (but not for) college, titled “Under the Violet Sun.”
Some of my stories actually had plots (hopefully I’ll dig them up eventually). This one, not so much.
And now Tom Knapp is in CounterPunch, explaining how the Casey Anthony trial was a failure of justice regardless of whether she was guilty or innocent.
You can also hear a clip from Kevin Carson being interviewed by Iranian Press TV here, on the role of big business in war. Those of us who have long suspected that Kevin Carson and Walter Block are the same person will find vindication in the graphic that Press TV chose to represent Kevin’s face.
In related news, Homer Simpson endorses Kevin’s “Labor Struggle: A Free Market Model”:
Lisa, if you don’t like your job you don’t strike. You just go in every day and do it really half-assed. That’s the American way.
I left a comment on James Leroy Wilson’s “The Time I Committed Election Fraud.”
Kevin Carson in CounterPunch again.
I’m one of the signers of this open letter to Obama.
It’s heartening to see so many prominent leftist and libertarian names mixed together on the list of signatories. (What’s the difference between signers and signatories?) And to see Molinari/C4SS represented.
Some libertarians lately have been saying that left-wingers oppose war only when Republicans are in charge. That’s true of some, but clearly, and thankfully, not of all.
What kind of professor has such empty bookshelves? It's very suspicious.
Check out this interview with my co-conspirator Gary Chartier, mainly about his book Conscience of an Anarchist, on Bathabile Mthombeni’s radio show.
The interview starts at around 5:25 in. (And if you just want Gary and not music, and so prefer to skip the midshow musical interlude, that runs from 25:36 to 28:40.)
