So like, you know, you could write for some of the lefty so-called lefty socialist, whatever, uh, But they don't. Yeah, they won't feature anarchists. They basically even just act as if anarchism doesn't exist, never exists, you know, never existed. They erase the whole history of it. The only serious kind of political forces, some kind of democratic socialism.
So to us, we wanted to create a place where we can do the writing we want to do without having to make compromises in what we want to say. just to get published because that, yeah, just that game of like, of shopping your stuff around is it's demeaning. It's totally time consuming. It distracts you from actually doing the work. So we were like, let's band together.

Yeah, when Carla and I initially had the seed conversation of this, Carla said something about collectivizing as writers. We talk about it with all these other workplaces and industries and whatever. And it was like, when she said that, I was like, Oh, yeah. That makes so much sense. We're off here doing our own thing.

And as Vicky said, you do it sort of with the knowledge that it's not sustainable. You steal your time to do it. Even the supposed jobs that are there to enable you to write actually make you do all this other work. So the time for writing is always... like endlessly deferred.

And, you know, we have that image also like of the patron or something, or like Virginia Woolf says, you need like money enough to have a room of one's own. But if we put ourselves together in this way, then we are trying to, yeah, I don't know, create more time for ourselves to write.

And then like going back to something Vicky said earlier about like reinventing the newspaper, there was a time in anarchism where like, I think we talked about this amongst ourselves, like where like every block had like a Yiddish anarchist newspaper, right? It wasn't like you had one newspaper telling all the anarchists what to think.
