I remember a very long time ago reading this guy's blog where he detailed his experiments with polyphasic sleeping schedules. Dude claimed he slept only a couple hours a day, in 20-30 minute increments every 4 hours or something. At the time I just thought it sounded wild and like a kind of cool idea.
Now I just remember how he said it gave him more time to work, which makes me sad.

Lol seeing CPUSA members on Twitter retweeting Kamala and the fucking Lincoln Project for Christ’s sake. They’re never beating the allegations.
Also seeing them dismiss this entire thing because the liquidated chapter had no black members. Which is a fair criticism, but is hilarious that they avoid all the other valid points. I’ve seen this a lot from CPUSA people on Twitter when there’s any criticism of the party. It’s always the form of the critique that makes the substance not worth addressing. Doesn’t really instill confidence in your party

Proof by ponder

Oliver Stone's series "Untold History of the United States" really helped to open my eyes to the depravity of the US when I was first learning about socialist politics. It gets a little socdem at parts, but for the most part is just a really solid accounting of the US's crimes in the 20th century. You should be able to find it streaming online, but pm me if you can't.
"My Brothers and Sisters in the North" is a good look at life in the DPRK, and not just in Pyongyang. This one's on youtube.
The Act of Killing is a very intense look into the perpetrators of the genocide in Indonesia in the 60s. I haven't watched the follow-up "The Look of Silence", but I've heard it's good as well. I think these are on netflix, but pm me if you want.

That shit slapped, my family had free internet, and my own was finally a manageable price. But now it's back up to over $70 a month

Is the late 1500s "ancient" now?

Lol the university I'm at blocks all .ru websites, rt.com, and lemmygrad. Oh and all Chinese social media apps. What a bastion of free speech and inquiry

I'm especially ignorant on cancer medicine, but I do know that Cuba has developed a vaccine that is supposed to prevent a type of lung cancer. My guess would be a similar sort of result here

Recently got kicked out of my apartment because a couple people complained (i.e. lied) about my dog.
feel like shit rn, just want him back

The world is bigger than you can even imagine. Please go read some books; start here.

yooooo I love this book! So much so I scanned it as a PDF and uploaded it to libgen hahaha. Having an EPUB is sick too!
But yeah, this book made me feel so many different emotions, I had to put it down nearly every chapter. So much joy, awe, and inspiration, contrasted with so much anger and sadness that we (the west) destroyed this beautiful project. Strong is such an approachable writer and I appreciate her perspective a lot. This book really opened my eyes.
One of her other books (although it's not that long) The Stalin Era is also really good, and interesting as a historical perspective. She wrote it in the aftermath of the Secret ~~Report~~ Speech, and while most of that is debunked now, it's interesting to see how pro-Soviet and pro-Stalin people dealt with the "revelations" at the time. Hahahah I could go on and on and on, but again, thank you for doing this and spreading the word of this book. It's absolutely one of my favorites!
