    Also I'll add Now and After: The ABC of Communist Anarchism By Alexander Berkman.

    It's a good introductory read but felt a bit too simple for me after Conquest. Look around and you can pick it up for free

    Plus one on Conquest of Bread. I've read it and it's up there with the Manifesto for me. It's a short read that really gets into the details of how anarcho communism would look.

    It's a practical book that shows what anarchy is, not just do as thou will and abolishing bedtime

    I'm pretty close to this point as well. My job should be good but it isn't and it sucks. I hate the software I have to use everyday and I don't like the people I work with.

    I almost want to be let go so I don't have a notice period holding me up for my next role, but I also fell like it's too close to Christmas to take that chance

    I get this. Linux is great but all the emphasis in software dev is on Windows and Mac. I put linux on my laptop and one issue I have is I use the program Scrivener for writing. I'd sync things with Google Drive so I could access things from anywhere, but there isn't a nesting native Scrivener for Linux and there isn't direct support for google drive on linux either.

    So I can get Scrivener to work through WINE but it can't find google drive folders properly, or I need to find another cloud storage solution, or a new program that works between devices.

    Linux is great, there's just been such a concerted effort to push the worst OS on us because capitalism

    The unit price of Sudocrem between sized is insane. We should test the manufacturers of sudocrem the same way we will the makers of baby formula when the revolution comes

    My parents say it was never a problem when I was a kid, and I think the cheap furniture IKEA popularised is to blame. Furniture used to be much more expensive, but it was sturdy and was less likely to tip

    One of my boys pulled a chest of draws onto himself the other day. Fortunately he was fine but things could have been worse.

    That plane of glass has never done more work than in this sentence. The glass did its job and the painting is fine.

    By this logic if you shoot at someone and they're behind thick bullet proof glass you've legally murdered them

    I'll put train videos on for the kids, but there's so much more going on with a steam train. Steam is billowing out of everywhere, they're just this massive piece of infrastructure, it's like taming the elements with an unholy union of water and fire - natural enemies in the wild, and you get to feel like a hero because you're helping people get to places.

    I put linux on an old laptop for my kids to play with, but I want them to see me using it as well so it's not just seen as a kids' toy. My plan was to browse the internet on it from time to time, but I don't want to sign into anything like my emails on there. I've just been completely at a loss to think ofthings to do on this laptop that aren't Wikipedia, news websites, and search. Is there anything else to do on the internet these days than login and doomscroll?

    More and more people are saying it. Will her VP pick be brat enough to keep up with Kamala? Will people be able to decipher the drama queen's messages enough to get policy takeaways? Hand on the lathe, this is how the election will be covered going forward
