okay, settle an argument for me. I'm being told it's weird to listen to an audiobook while simultaneously reading a different book. Do you do this? Like, audiobook in your headphones, unrelated book being read at the same time, not just alternating which you're working on by listening to a chapter, then reading a different chapter.

the most life saving firefox extension for me (aside from ublock origin) is definitely library extension, if you're browsing goodreads the extension will show you this on the corner of the page:

showing you whether or not the book you want is available at your library, in either it's physical or electronic collection!

I'm shocked that Jane Austen wasn't the oldest sibling. She writes "eldest sister" so well, I was sure she had to be one 😂

To not be snarky about it for a moment, if you want to actually be a communist you've got to do some reading and I promise you it is not nearly as hard as you think it is.

This website is your best friend, they have texts in multiple languages, a subject index for getting started on a specific historical period or area of study, and even a glossary of terms for when you run into stuff you don't recognize (which you will, please don't let that turn you off it happens to everyone).

I won't lie, reading theory can be hard, especially older works that are talking about a quite different historical context and I don't believe it's necessary to go through every single work of a given foundational thinker to get an understanding, but you owe it to yourself to give the basics a shot.

Start with the Manifesto, it's not Das Kapital it's a short and easy read and I personally find it an inspiring start. Principles is an even shorter read (more of a summary) that helps get you up to speed but it's not substitute, and if you really want to get yourself out of thinking like a liberal I cannot recommend Utopian and Scientific enough.

None of this is rocket science or even as obtuse as your average jstor article. People have been dissecting and building off of these works for well over a century but to be part of that conversation you have to understand the baseline and if we all do at least that much then on god we can make this the commie webbed site.
