It’s not exactly what you’re asking for, since it doesn’t have a main character and it’s not theory, but Mieville’s October reads like a novel and it tells the story of the Russian revolution. Worth a read since it’s educational and a fun read. Aside from some lame anti-Stalinism at the end it’s solid imo.
Any chance you’re a lefty? That’s what I blame my complete lack of ability to use scissors on at least.
Kindles suck thanks to Amazon lock in, but I pirate all my books and use Calibre to convert/manage my library, and can easily use email to send books to my device. The main reason I stick with this one (paper white) is the battery life. I go a month or two between charges, reading heavily. My wife’s Kobo needs to be charged every couple weeks and she’s a much lighter reader than me.

I think this is their stated reason, or at least that was part of the dialog last time around.
Pretty sure it’s been Hitlers all along, yes even before Hitler.
Not accusing you of being racist, but I have seen this same rhetoric used by libs and chuds about Chinese people in a way that certainly feels racist. Personally I’d just avoid this type of criticism that could easily be misconstrued as a cultural critique rather than a national one. There are plenty of things to call out Israel for that don’t run this risk.
The fact that I can hear this in the narrator’s voice really speaks to how awesome of a job he did.
I’d hate to come across as a Molyneux apologist, but at least Fable 1 was fun. SC can’t claim anything close to that.
This probably isn’t due to any good intentions from Peter himself though, he was tied to a studio that demanded a complete game be released, SC is just on a money treadmill and their “visionary” is free to just grift away.
I read HPMoR back in the day, I don’t remember any grimdark shit, but he was still writing it when I stopped reading so I’m not surprised to hear it went that direction.
It was so weird to hear the author of HPMoR come up in a recent TrueAnon episode, but not at all surprising to learn that he’s an ai grifter these days.
Grab a 5lb CO2 tank from the home brew shop, and a little adapter for sodastream canisters. Easy to fill up at home and you only need to refill the big tank every 5 or 6 refills of the small one. Super cheap as well (and te money goes to your hbs).

I tuned in just as she was getting asked about Israel and dear god is it awful.
Trump coming in hot with saying she hates both Israel and “the Arabs”, I can’t deal with this.
Star Citizen shit makes me so mad. If a tiny fraction of what they’ve promised actually existed as a functional cohesive game it would probably be sick. When I first heard about SC I was obsessed with it, how could you not be? I know this is the oldest grift in vidya games, but at least Peter molyneux delivered a fun game, if it was a shadow of what was promised.

I think that “it’s supposed to be shit” can be good when it comes from an artist that has the ability to do it well. No idea if this is the case for Raygun, but it’d be interesting to me if she had proven her chops elsewhere then decided to put on a horrible act.
There’s never been a better time to switch to Firefox, just saying.
Anyone calling out his mental decline in 2020 was accused of being a Russian bot and that whole discourse was silenced outside of places like this.
You can get some pretty great headlamps that help with light, around $75 for something with decent quality, battery and bright enough. I typically get most of my running in while the kids are asleep which means very early or late runs. I’m lucky enough to live in a place with well lit running paths all night though so I haven’t had much experience with unlit roads. I do trail running with a headlamp sometimes though which works well enough.
For the sun, I’d highly recommend covering up vs sunscreen. A long sleeve lightweight shirt + a bucket hat would go a long way, or those weird running sleeves that people wear.
I don’t have an issue with bleeding nipples myself, but I’ve heard people swear by products like nut butter or body glide. I just use normal Vaseline when I’m having chafing and it does the trick.
