I’ll say that the Power Broker by Robert Caro is one the longest and the absolute best books I’ve ever read. Absolutely incredible text, research, structure and topic. How power actually worked for one of the most significant single shapers of the current state of NYC and to some extent the rest of America

Parasite Rex changed how I think about a lot of systems. Really mind expanding

The original no longer works, but this is a remaster of what I think you are referring to. https://m.webtoons.com/en/horang/episode/page?titleNo=2185&episodeNo=10&webtoon-platform-redirect=true

I damn near ran out of the room first time I saw this.

It’s so hard to understand! Like it seems so obviously gross. But why is it ALL OVER THE PLACE‽

Is there something in the kind of brain that makes you take artistic risks that allows you to more easily think of people as things?

I think this is probably one of the most insightful comments.

Like, there is probably darkness in everyone. And I think I would be a good person with power but maybe it would be just as damaging for me and make my darkness rise too.

Still, fuck this shit and it’s good to be angry at people for treating vulnerable people like things.

This broke my damn heart. His work seemed to have the values I hold dear and be so insightful and then… he’s getting in the bath with girls who depend on him for housing.

I am thinking that power corrupts. I came up with that but you can use that phrase if you want.

I really loved the music so much. This hit me like the Neil Gaiman story

Same buddy. She burned so bright

I’m going to give a shot one more time but if it doesn’t work I’m going to take back my upvote on this post. You’ve been warned!

I’m in the US and have never once successfully used one of the white screw in anchors. What is the mystical secret?

I also like Hellgate for NYC specific coverage

ACAB means all candy any body

NK Jemisen’s the fifth season was amazing. It won a Hugo. Then the sequel was amazing and different and won the Hugo.

Then the last book in the trilogy was crazier and won the Hugo.

Truly wild magic and a very very brutal world.

But we do have cabaret laws in NYC that say you can’t dance in an establishment without a license for dancing which is super dum dum.

Yup legal in NY.

Also consider just tracking tasks in obsidian if you already use it.

Check out https://publish.obsidian.md/kanban/Obsidian+Kanban+Plugin which seems like it was made for you.

Ah hell. For that price I grabbed 4. I think the same source is selling on newegg as well for a similar price.

This looks amazing. I’m already using obsidian but if I’d found this first I probably would have started here.

I went and wandered it for probably 5 hours with someone. We managed to get everywhere but couldn’t read everything
