Commune Sense: Book 1: Love, Kombucha & Anarchy
A sitcom-style anarcho-comedy from the future we deserve.
In a world where the revolution has already won — there’s kombucha on tap, democracy is digital, and the gift shop is free — six lovable weirdos try to navigate love, power, and who exactly clogged the composting toilet.
Set in a perfect libertarian municipalist commune (emphasis on perfect — no flaws here, folks), Commune Sense is a lighthearted, smart-mouthed series following a diverse group of oddballs as they stumble through romances, debates, puppet shows, dance balls, and the occasional Marxist meltdown.
There’
Zain, the thoughtful gardener with a quietly burning crush.
Rivka, the puppeteer with radical flair and hidden softness.
Ben, the lovable womanizer with too many one-night stands and zero clue.
Logan, the sarcastic realist hiding his heart behind irony.
Zoe, the whimsical poly dreamer spinning through the commune like a glitter tornado.
Felix, the lone Marxist shouting about vanguards and slowly falling for a capitalist with gold stilettos.
And then there’s Avi — the Ayn Rand fangirl no one takes seriously, but everyone laughs at.
Think Friends meets Emma Goldman, if Emma had a podcast.
