I’m back in good health and should start posting serious theory discussions instead of talking about football all the time.

Post ideas here. Upbearing comments will be interprebeared as an expression of interest.

It would be good etiquette to mention the length of the book, as it’s relevant to choosing.

        worse still the person said they were interested in it because it was a marxist analysis of California history but they were mad it didn’t spend more time on biotech, ai, and other bazinga brain shit.

          Yeesh. For some reason, Americans have a really hard time with the idea that other perspectives are, like, genuinely different and not just the same thing but with the colours inverted

          sort of like when christians try to write atheist characters, but the end result is Christian, but I’m mad at God
