problem is, most of them are actually quite pro-Lenin. If someone with some spare time wanted to make some libcom-perspective ones that would be great!

Anarchists catch up with 2008's internet culture.

When it comes to historical events, we're still stuck in 1936, so 2008 for internet culture ain't too bad. Your trolling, on the other hand, is timeless. ;)

How many Winston Churchills does it take to change a lightbulb?

Two. One to drunkenly stumble around insulting people and one to take the credit when a Russian actually fixes it.

what program are people using to make the white font with black border?

the only photo editing programs i have are "paint" and "microsoft office picture manager." as far as i can tell, of these two programs, only "paint" has text, and i couldn't find a way to make the inside color different from the border.

do i need to download something else?

This site seems to do white font with black border:

bumping this thread.

The old bolshevik Bonch-Bruyevich wrote a children story about the cat Vaska. Here is a google-translation of it:

"Do you have a cat?" - Vladimir Ilyich asked my daughter Lelyu, walking in the garden of our dacha, where he came to stay with us and rest.

- There is! Vaska. We call him Vasily Ivanovich ... And here it is! - answered

Lyolya, pointing to a big black cat, prettily, slowly coming out of the kitchen.

He was almost all black, with a white tie under his neck, his paws

too, were white, like shoes, and the tip of the tail was also white, like a fluff.

"What an important cat!" exclaimed Vladimir Ilyich. "And probably a big bummer."

- What are you, Vladimir Ilyich, - Lelia stood up for her pet, - he catches mice perfectly.

- Well, it's his direct duty ... Let's see if he can show tricks. And Vladimir Ilyich quickly took the cat in his arms, tickled it under his neck, scratched between his ears, stroked it ... Vaska was very pleased: he immediately began gently biting Vladimir Ilyich for his finger and, lying on his back, tried to fend off his hind legs.

- Look at you, what game! Well, let's see how you can jump, said Vladimir Ilyich. He lowered the cat to the ground and immediately put his hands in front of him with a wheel. "Jump!" Jump! .. Vaska, Vasenka, jump! ..

The cat was taken aback. And Vladimir Ilyich brought his hands closer and closer to the muzzle of Vasily Ivanovich.

- Well, jump! - And he quietly pushed the cat behind and immediately again

put his hands in front of him with a wheel, connected in the fingers.

The cat reluctantly rose, hunched and, as if doing a favor, gently and

He jumped uncomfortably and jumped over the arms of Vladimir Ilyich. Vladimir Ilyich immediately put his hands up again, and Vasenka more quickly and quickly jumped again. And his hands were again in front of him. The cat jumped more and more, faster and faster and, at last, jumped very dexterously, fluffed the tail, started all the way to the house, climbed under the porch and from there

cunningly looked out ...

"Oh, you rogue, you, you robber!" said Vladimir Ilyich. - Tired! Udal! .. Good for you! Well jumped! You'll be an academic ... Lelia, give him milk. He completely deserved a good breakfast.

Lelia ran to the kitchen. Has brought a saucer of warm milk with white

bread and put it near the porch. The cat looked around, went out from under the porch and, purring, began to eat.

- Well done, Vaska! - Vladimir Ilyich praised him. "We'll learn how to jump through a chair with you."

Last night on Radio 4 someone told an old Ken Dodd joke:

A fellow ran through a door in the Kremlin and shouted, “Is Len in?”

Well, it made me laugh. Nothing about cats.
