Are you guys vegetarian? Why?
Yes, we are all vegetarians (more specifically, our diets are “vegan“), which means we do our best within this insane framework of capitalism to live cruelty-free lives. That said, we do encourage people to slaughter and devour organically-fed, free-range human corpses. Especially those of “post-vegetarian” crusty-punks and university students. The planet will thank you for it.

Due to an unnamed legal dispute with EMI, Danger Mouse & Sparklehorse are releasing their new album (with 100+ images by David Lynch) anyway, sort of. The “Dark Night of the Soul” album is available as a book and blank CD-R package, “to use however you see fit.”

Marx understood that “the need for a constantly expanding market for its products chases the bourgeoisie over the whole surface of the globe,” foreseeing that the development of capitalism would inevitably be “paving the way for more extensive and exhaustive crises.” Leo Panitch leads you through why sales of Das Kapital have skyrocketed in the last year.
This is the very definition of morbid curiosity: Your odds of dying from, well, lots and lots of things.
