Ah the classic do nothing and win

Ghandi too

I think people underestimate the power of collective action. People have been underplaying the strengths of these actions in online discourse to the point where I wonder if its coordinated.

Being loud and boycotting does work. And even if it doesn’t why support anti consumer practices.

Oh that is unfortunate. Worth it to have one of those though. Thanks!

Where did you get the kit from? Thinking of building one myself

EndeavourOs can’t recommend it enough. Its arch but easy. Comes with gnome seems to install with 0 issues on every machine I’ve owned. If arch feels like home this is a great option

Yeah that makes sense, the writing style of Ancillary Justice is really unique.

have you ever read This is how you lose the time war? I’m considering reading that one next

Oh YIKES I did not know that

thats such a specific genre haha. Have read the Traitor Baru Cormorant? Very slightly outside of your criteria but I’d recommend it

Non fiction I’d recommend atomic habits (self help), nuclear war: a scenario (existential horror),~~ and Outliers (thought provoking)~~. Yes Man (interesting)

Fiction I’d recommend There is no Antimemetics division (regular horror), Exhalation (thought provoking short stories), and A Memory Called Empire (very good commentary on cultural assimilation).

Depending on what you’re looking to get from reading i have other recs

Such a fun series. The fights especially are so captivating.

thank you. reading this article/discovering his other work genuinely might be the best thing I’ve seen all year
