Harper Ford, Divorced [Not Dead]

“Is this the police? Did they come to inform me that Jay is missing or injured or killed??? Or maybe it's the delivery from Amazon with the book I ordered, "How to Be Optimistic?”

“Fuck Mars.”
Harper Ford, Divorced [Not Dead]

“Только когда будет срублено последнее дерево,
Только когда будет отравлена последняя река,
Только когда будет выловлена последняя рыба, Только тогда вы поймете, что деньги нельзя есть.”
Индейское пророчество

Paullina Simons
“Ukraine, March 1929

Roman and Ostap founded an organization called OWK. They handcrafted leaflets with thick pencils and distributed them across the city, sticking them to doors and walls. When an OGPU agent of Afros confronted Roman, he boldly stated, "I serve the revolution, comrade. What about you?" Later, Afros and Zhuk summoned the brothers to a commandeered house in the village square. There, Zhuk questioned if Roman wanted to be sent to Murmansk, which Roman refused. He argued that no kulaks were left in Ispas after the severe purge six weeks earlier. Therefore, they decided to form a group open to everyone, planning its first meeting for the next week. OWK, standing for 'Organization without Kulaks,' was envisioned by Roman as a collective for the non-wealthy farmers of Ispas. He believed that maintaining class struggle among Ukrainian farmers was difficult, as the categories changed with each harvest. Given the recent bad harvest and the absence of kulaks, Roman was unsure how to continue the class conflict as Zhuk had outlined. Nonetheless, he reassured Zhuk with a friendly smile about their commitment to removing the last anti-communist elements, thus establishing OWK. Jock insisted that true commitment meant joining collectivization. Roman recognized the inefficiency of small farms and was open to discussing it further, alluding to important details about the Lazar family's land.”
