Orange man's been gone almost four years. Why are the prices still up? I thought they were orange man's fault?

Plastic also has a limit to the number of times it can be recycled.

They said reduce first. Get yourself sterilized and you can reduce your use of contraceptives.

Did you mean a slave who has recently graduated to indentured servant status?

We get progressively less library subscriptions each year. I can't legally access some of my old papers via our institution subscriptions anymore.

Too bad you didn't tell that to my brain back when I was in peak physical condition from competitive swimming! I'm sure if my brain knew that it was supposed to feel better while eating right, being extremely physically active, and consuming no drugs or alcohol, it wouldn't have subjected me to decades of chronic depression.

Thanks for the thoughtful and well researched advice you ignorant muppet.

Those aren't snakes, they're rubber bands.

While this may work short-term, eventually you'll end up with a bunch of quickersilver, which is much harder to convert. While it's a bit more work, I find the conversion from mercury to improvised cudgel is an easier transformation so long as you perform it in locations already high in gold content. Do note that this is a potentially volatile and dangerous reaction.

Mostly in the recommended reading order, but he listed some notes on their importance or when they can be skipped, etc. with many of the sources, particularly at the start of the list.

This should take you up through where you were at State and Revolution and where to go next. I have to say that the recommendation others have given for Black Shirts and Reds is also a very good place to start for the reasons they gave.

Almost all of these can be found on the internet archive, Anna's Archive, or you can ask around on lemmy.ml or lemmygrad.ml for free digital copies. While some people prefer physical books, there shouldn't be any need to pay for these unless you want to.

Which books...would you recommend?

@Dessalines@lemmy.ml put together a good reading list that includes the reading order.

"People"

Care to share what you meant by this?

Unless they're your manager. Then they stay forever or get promoted.

We need centralised R&D free from market influence for the benefit of all life.

So you're actually saying holding on to capitalism past it's useful point was the mistake because it created the conditions for these things to happen?

One of my favorites:

It's important that you also read the section titles.

If I was a good capitalist, I would release a line of spray paints containing a concentrated, strong acid so they would corrode the metal, leaving a mark after the paint was removed. Call it something stupid like "Muskoleum," "RustEloneum," or "Cybertruck Repair Spray"," but preferably something catchier.

Yeah, I feel like a good middle ground is to cite your previous work in the context of "as we previously reported," but maybe that's just based on something that was ingrained in me by academia. It seems tacky. My boss has no problem with it though, he's like, "idgaf, more citations, more views, higher impact."

I have a boss who will remote to a meeting that takes place right outside his office, then come in-person to the next meeting that immediately follows in the same room. People like the flexibility.

I was kind of thinking of that with the institutional journal bit. It doesn't need to be a traditional journal, the only things important to me are:

1. peer review (skip #2)
2. open access
3. professional editors to help improve phrasing, spelling, flow, etc.
4. DOI link or similar unique identifier

I'm totally down to ditch the traditional journal format otherwise. It was just a quick comment not meant to go in-depth, but point out that we already have public institutions that can host publications.

I swear it's an official rule that reviewer 2 is required to be a huge pain in the ass.

Institutions could easily form their own journals. National organizations that provide grants could also require you to publish in their journal. Universities can run their own journals. These sorts of entities already exist and provide article access for free, publishing in them would just need to be normalized.

These are just a few options without researchers organizing anything for themselves.
