I found an intersection of my education in art and my interest in far left politics. I always knew Gustave Courbet as the self aggrandizing prick who compared himself to God and made a painting of a close-up pussy and called it "The Origin of the World". Apparently he was also one of the first anarchists and was involved in the Paris Commune, the first communist revolution. There doesn't seem to be much if any writing about Courbet from a leftist perspective easily available. Might fuck around and make a blog post about French Realism and the beginnings of socialism.

Pubski is good because we can write about stupid shit we're into once a week without it being its own post. Yall might have to ignore my blog post if I get around to it. Sorry in advance
