BOOKCLUB ANNOUNCEMENT

good evening/morning !bookworms! :star: i am making the executive decision to change the bookclub book we are reading to Atomised aka The Elementary Particles because: a) u complained, b) i think it is more topical (drama surrounds this book, incel themes, etc etc i'm very tired), c) it is shorter and we will probably have more meaningful discussion about it, d) more of u will read it bc it isn't as intense, and e) i'm in a houellebecq mood and i feel like it. you're welcome or sorry. :marseywhelmed:


chapter breakdown

Part 1: read ch 1-15 in week 1 and 2.

Part 2: read ch 1-22 in week 3 and 4, we can push this back if we need to, discuss in discussion posts to come.

Part 3: read ch 1-7 in week 4 or 5 (re pushing back)


i rly think this book will be a better fit and i'm more excited to read it and hear what everyone thinks about it. goodnight all, take a day or so to like download off libgen or buy it or whatever, i am usually a kindle-paperwhitecel bc books are expensive but i would rather read paperback for this so if u all need time before we start week 1 then that's ok. love u mean it gn <marseypaperbag></marseypaperbag>

:marseyrave:Lemmygrad.ml is communist lemmy. Lemmy is like reddit but federated. It's pretty popular, with the top posts getting above 1k upvotes.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/17147887990926173.webp

Here are things you can do on Lemmygrad:

1. Look at the latest and greatest communist memes

https://i.rdrama.net/images/17147887988857472.webp

https://i.rdrama.net/images/17147887970135202.webp

Wait is North Korea communist too??? :marseymindblown: someone help me out here :marseyconfused2:

2. learn all about praxis

https://i.rdrama.net/images/17147887994014347.webp

3. learn all about theory

A lot of times communists compare theory and praxis. Theory is when you :marseylongpost2: about communism. Praxis is the communist word for touching grass communistically to further communism. :marseyagree:

lemmygrad has nice sidebar links to stuff that can help you learn about communism: https://prolewiki.org/

I turn this theory into the praxis of making sure I am well rested! :marseyreading: :marseylongpost2: :marseysleep:

:marseyindignant: and yes, going to the bar can be good praxis as long as your comrades are there and you are building comradeship in pursuit of true communism

4. read their hillarious public modlog

This is the infinite drama fountain I spoke of, but it has a limitation :marseyaware: It seems to only show the content of a removed comment for 24hrs:

https://i.rdrama.net/images/17147887966693232.webp

This is why it's an infinite drama fountain and not a drama river

>Unless you're a medical professional who specialized in weight-loss, there's probably nothing you can say to them about their weight that they haven't already heard or are not already well-aware of.

Yeah no shit, wobbling back and forth waddling damaging your cardiovascular and skeletal structure is as basic as knowing the flu is bad.

https://old.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/1cji04o/obese_people_of_reddit_what_is_something_nonobese/l2gb8vx/?context=8&sort=controversial

Just how much internalized shame we carry. If you've seen someone who was really skinny struggle with shame, with thinking that they are too fat, and feeling guilty about how they look….that same shame lives inside so many of us.

>And a lot of us are honestly doing the best we can with subpar health care and normalized stigma.

We're also judged!!! No shit unhealthy habits are judged. At least anorexic and bulimics just understand that they refuse medical advice and not just blame others for their health issues.

It is really easy to gain weight over time. You get a sedentary job and you snack occasionally, and in the evening you watch TV or read a book instead of going out. So you weigh three pounds more than you did at this time last year. No big deal, right?

>Now, multiply that by fifteen years or so. All of a sudden, it is your fortieth birthday, and you somehow weigh fifty pounds more than you did in college. It isn't because you always eat two boxes of oreos a night -- you just gained a little, year after year.

>Also? It is a lot harder to lose weight when you are heavy. When I was 25 and thought I had gained a few pounds, I'd start jogging. Pretty soon, I'd be able to run two or three miles at a shot, and hey! Problem solved! Now? I'm older and heavier and that means I'm a lot more prone to injury. So I try to work out, and my knees start hurting (again) or I aggravate an old foot injury, and it gets frustrating. There are workarounds, of course. I can swim, and I can lift weights. But it is all harder than it was when I was young. 

It's so easy to gain weight that it's something I just ignored for over a decade instead of taking proactive measures in my life to prevent this when noticed. Instead let's just blame it on the fact that I made no lifestyle changes in this period even though diet adjustment is still the main factor so let's just b-word about things not in control.

Just take semaglutide like every other fatty and stop shoving your mouth with garbage.

A somewhat boring (re: words words words) thread where I tried to explain to leftists that acting r-slurred is bad actually

I'm going to post this here so if anybody wants to pile on.

I gave up after about an hour trying to explain that destroying property and acting r-slurred as bad actually.

Feel free to make fun of me for trying. I'm drunk

Just take a look through any of his all day long rants about people, he is also well known for stickying his opinions to the top of threads for no reason.

/u/PankoKing

Really he has out done himself by defending the latest anti-cheat above what even the literal employees are doing. Banning everyone even mentioning they had problems while the company was trying to collect issues people were having to actually solve them (they actually made a thread later to directly collect these because the Jannies were working too hard and preventing them solving peoples issues :marseyxd: )

https://old.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/1civ4l7/update_from_riot_on_vanguard/?sort=controversial

The highlight of which was stickying a post calling people racists for having tech issues, he then went to defend himself from people making fun of him, but then locked the thread after people kept laughing at him.

https://old.reddit.com/r/LeagueOfMemes/comments/1ci2kr3/vanguard_is_racist/l27axcg/?context=8&sort=controversial

the /r/leagueoflegends mod team also control every related league of legends subreddits :marseyschizotwitch: so also have locked threads making memes about them.

Please take your tech issues to https://old.reddit.com/r/LeagueofTechSupport/, a subreddit he just created as an excuse to ban all the threads he doesn't like :marseyjanny2:

For good measure they also control /r/lol just to make sure no one can make a competing subreddit for the game with a reasonable name.

I mean it's weird to say but I have more fun on this site than anywhere else and it's mostly just schizos laughing at r-slurs. I feel like life shouldn't be this boring. I'm sure I'd like a family and get bored of them eventually. I don't really relate to anyone. My worst problem is I always have problems sleeping. Other than that I just wait for the next happening, whatever it may bring. Such is life.

PLEASE stop sexualing my hot naked run through campus 😩🍆🍑

A fricking Message To Voyeurs of the fricking Naked Run

Don't post videos of the fricking naked run on TikTok, Instagram, Twitter, social medias. This is fricking unconsensual and unkind.

Instead of watching, join and run. Unless you're actually studying… then I suppose you don't have much of an option here. The fricking intention of the fricking naked run is not fricking oggle, but to bond with your peers and decompress.

Nudity is not fricking inherently sexual. Don't sexualize people without their consent.

Note to the fricking runners, you may want to consider covering your face or wearing lingerie/undies if you are fricking concerned about privacy or getting filmed. Unfortunately, some people just don't respect common sense, politeness and/or boundaries.

Be safe, and good luck on finals, motherlover!

What is it with women getting lost and dying/nearly dying less than 3 hours from help?

Bear, because statistically, women have crashed at least a thousand times more vehicles than bears, or any other carnivores for that matter. I want to live.

A bear bc apparently I'm statistically less likely to sexually assault it.

As someone who was once injured in a car accident where the women was driving, i'm entitled to speak on this matter....so id go with bear.

Silly joke, women can't drive cars.

travellingathenian -22 points 22 hours ago locked comment

That's funny considering most accidents are caused by men

bonus seething in the cross posted thread on r/BlatantMisogyny

:marseyreportmaxxer2: I would highly prefer if those kind of men were trapped inside a car with a bear rather than a woman.

I want to report spam or abuse

This is abusive or harassing

It threatens violence or physical harm

At me

Would you rather be in a car driven by a woman or a bear?
