Karl Marx, born on this day in 1818, was a foundational political theorist and journalist associated with the philosophy of Marxism.
Among Marx's best-known texts are the "The Communist Manifesto" and the three-volume "Das Kapital", in which he set out to define and explain the behavior of the capitalist mode of production.
Marx's political and philosophical thought have had enormous influence on subsequent intellectual, economic and political history, and his name has been used as an adjective, a noun, and a school of social theory.
Marx's critical theories about society, economics and politics - collectively understood as Marxism - hold that human societies develop through class conflict. In capitalism, this manifests itself in the conflict between the ruling classes (known as the bourgeoisie) that control the means of production, and the working classes (known as the proletariat) that enable these means by selling their labor power in return for wages.
Employing a critical approach known as historical materialism, Marx concluded that, like previous socio-economic systems, capitalism produced internal tensions which would lead to its self-destruction and replacement by a new system known as socialism.

Got a bigger SD card and I'm downcycling all the cards to the other handheld consoles I have so I got to upgrade my PSP to 256 up from 200GB, but you have to trick it into doing this and you need to get lucky with the right memory card/sd adapter because even from the same distributor it seems they'll work randomly or not with cards bigger than 128GB. Was able to post about it online to let people know how to do this correctly, hopefully it helps someone.
Washed all the walls finally, they get dirty here for whatever reason. I think it's asian beetles and humidity. Dusted all the ceiling fans. Did the laundry. Took out all the garbage and recycling. Watched up to the 2nd-last Yugioh season 0 episode (it's still just OK). Organized some of my digital music library (still have like 40 albums to add/organize). Helped my mom with some digital stuff in the morning (set up a Windows shared folder that can be accessed by devices as needed). Proofed some yeast and made some garlic bread dough before my next activity.
Went for my first bike ride of the year! Was all right. It was both sunny and gloomy due to dark clouds on the horizon which sometimes I like and sometimes don't like. I guess it was OK today. Listened to some TrueAnon episodes and Stop It! a screamo band.
Got home, garage door is fucking busted due to squirrels so I went to manually close it and the latch cord snapped. Was able to fix it and my dad says the door does close if you stand and hold the button until it closes because the sensors are covered with insulation. It's so fucking dumb how he openly fantasizes about killing small creatures like a psycho, but won't just kill these fucking squirrels or better yet do that and then also rodent-proof the garage/sheds at least somewhat. He also complained about a new hazmat tax. He really is like elementary-level on things because he didn't know what hazardous materials are and seemed skeptical at all how there might be any in the creation of acetylene gas or whatever he bought.
Made spaghetti and Ikea veggie-meatballs with vegan cheese garlic sticks/fingers. Turned out really well. Oh and a banana smoothie. Watched a couple episodes of Flowers Of Evil anime with mom. Further cleaned up the kitchen so that's all good for now.
Today wasn't bad. Oh, also sewed a Converge patch onto my jacket, which might be the last patch I put on it.
Oh, also put surge protectors on all my outlets in my bedroom. Finally fixed the power bar I had mounted to a wall that came undone on one side and was drooping. Did some other stuff, but I can't remember. I got a lot done.
Edit: Carefully cut the $5 Staples prints of Lucky Star hiragana/katakana I got and sticky-tacked them to the side of my shelf. Look nice and motivate me to keep up with learning japanese enough to grope through video games and stuff.
