Yeah I've been involved with them in varying degrees for the last several years, and I've never seen anything questionable from the leadership or regular members. Save for the occasional troll that gets into the Slack just to start drama, and is promptly kicked out

As far as I know, which to be fair isn't much, it's more of a landback kind of thing. Same deal as tribes in the US purchasing land in recent times, just involving the government directly rather than buying it from individual owners.

I'll have to look into that. I switched to Pocket Casts years ago specifically for the cross-platform sync feature, and haven't really given it any thought since lol

It's not quite the same, but Pocket Casts lets you customize how many seconds the skip buttons go forward and back by, which can at least make it a little less tedious

I know Yugopnik posted in the last couple of days that he had just met JT and Hakim in person, so that would explain JT being outside the US at least lol

And the christo-fascist president in Parable of the Talents using the campaign slogan "Make America Great Again". I wish she had been able to write the third book

Oh yeah that would have been great if done right.

I always thought a movie/trilogy covering the 7 hours war would be cool, but I feel like they'd just try to adapt the games themselves, which I think would be a waste.

I do find it hilarious that after over a decade of announcements and rumors about Valve's IPs being made into a movie, the one that actually made it was a gmod youtube poop lol

I can't remember, isn't this the chapter that JT is a member of? I wonder if we'll see anything about it from him

Ah man I need to catch back up on it. According to my podcatcher, the last episode I've listened to was all the way back in June of 2020.

 

I'm mainly looking for stuff like what to expect, how to raise a child, etc., but I'm open to other suggestions too. It doesn't have to be explicitly communist/leftist (although that would be nice lol), but at least stuff that is aligned with similar values.

I've seen Unconditional Parenting by Alfie Kohn, and The Will to Change by bell hooks recommended on leftist parts of :reddit-logo:, and I've heard that Pedagogy of the Oppressed has some useful ideas in it too
