there anything sketchy about the UN doing all this? seems too good to be true

Perfect

Alright long story short, I used to be poor but rented a space with some gardenspace which was cool.

I moved and had to give that up (which really kinda depressed me) but now I have an easy, good paying job right now. I'm just planning to save some money and buy a field somewhere where I can put a small enough living space (or with a few people). With some luck I can turn this in a fully remote job too.

I'll love this thread. I used to work for am organic farm. It was pretty cool but I couldn't keep working there, also I want to go further.

Thank you for reading my blogpost.

The UN sometimes does good things. Not everything about it is the security council. They probably are taking advantage of the situation somehow but it's still good to slow down desertification.

>>46171
Thank you for writing it. Good luck on turning it into a remote job and getting the field.

>there anything sketchy about the UN doing all this? seems too good to be true
there's nothing sus about it, they're just forced to respond to China's publicized success in reversing desertification. Some Western countries were forced to give their populations some succdem healthcare during the cold war because the USSR was doing it. Now China's advances in greening deserts is forcing the UN to finally follow some good policies.

This makes more money and Disney has done many rereleases.

>>46098
Is there some breakdown of audience demographics? Because, who watches this crap? How does it keep making money? Now obvious answer is children, but wouldnt children prefer animated version?

>>46099
>>46099
Well disney doesnt do 2d anymore. This is basically an animation considering one of the titular characters is full cgi. I don't know that kids really even prefer animation tho. I watched a lot of acted kids movies and even mixed live action and animation kids movies growing up, I think a lot of the acted ones did well, it is just the cartoons are more critically acclaimed.

I watched Sinners. The scene where they're playing music and all the ghosts of past and future black and Chinese musicians appear was kinda cringe. I understand what they were going for with it, all the best and most iconic music and culture of the USA was made by black USAnians but the juxtaposition of a modern DJ and rappers and rock stars with the old timey blues came off as silly.

Any good films yet this year? Everytime I look at new releases its celebrity documentaries, war propaganda, and cop propaganda.

jesus, if people I knew irl found out I browse /leftypol/ I would probably kms
great job OP

>He gave comparisons of football uyghurs
I'm assuming lumpen since he watches football, so he probably thinks football players are the greatest and most successful people on this planet. Not worth bothering with.

Hey transhumanism anon, will you be doing another tattoo?
Also, could you re-post that tattoo again (since it was lost after the harddrive failed)

I want to get a tattoo on my shoulder/upper arm. What should I get? I want it to have a spiritual and philosophical significance. Maybe something to do with nonduality and/or the dialectic.

Well tattoo guy, the election has kicked in:
>>>/siberia/674080
Will you do a new tattoo?

if it doesn't show him taking money from british intelligence to betray socialism and invent fascism then it's glowie propaganda as far as i am concerned

This show is like a decopunk expressionist fever dream, the fact that its set to electronic music makes it seem weirdly modern

>>46150
I interpreted it as trying to portray anxiety. could be wrong though.

>>46154
no. it is an epic just like 300 but with fascism instead of the greco-persian wars. it is fascist apologia disguising itself as liberal victimization - if there was ever a difference to begin with. the premise here is that being a fascist is heroic and cool

>>46155
I think you might be retarded, anon.

where is the best place to upload fan fiction?

AO3 is still the king by far

Invisible Cities. Feels like hearing bedtime stories from Borges.

Mason and Dixon is Pinecone's best book. His most beautiful prose (I find GR's prose repetitive), his most creative, his best characters, etc. It does, admittedly, lack the wild transgressive vigor of GR.

>>45905
This is just a rambly and incoherent off-the-cuff list but since you say you want to read as much as possible you might as well go for it.
Non-fiction
>The Principles of Communism (assuming you haven't read anything else from M&E)
>Hobsbawm's Age Of books (incl. Extremes)
>The World as Will and Representation (both volumes) (don't get too blackpilled by it though)
Fiction
>Hamlet and Twelfth Night
>Dubliners
>Journey to the End of the Night
>Naked Lunch
>First and Last Man
>Catch-22

Decided to reread Paradise Loft because that stuff is awesome. Will Finally read Paradise Regained also

thanks for the recommendations, will look into them

You need to diagnose it first so you know what treatments work and which make it worst (e.g. stretching can make an inflammation worse). There's many different issues that you could have. Could be bicep tendonitis if you have pain in front of the shoulder, could be any of the rotator cuffs, could be multiple things at once.
And stop doing anything that aggravates it. Only after the pain goes away try adding one exercise at a time with lighter weight, do fewer sets with slower and controlled reps, and maybe reduce range of motion. You need to eliminate whatever caused your issue originally, which is different from what aggravates it once the issue is already there.
Overhead and bench press in particular can cause shoulder issues for many different reasons, so I would definitely stop doing those until it goes away.

>>45902
I am seeing a PT now and doing the exercises she recommends. Still havent got a diagnosis so idk. She seemed pretty sure it's not a tear. What other chest exercises could I maybe do?

>>45710
Could it be bad form? If the bench press is hitting your shoulders, you're doing it wrong and you can get hurt. You're supposed to feel it on your chest (and triceps to a lesser degree). I spent several months doing it wrong as a beginner and always wondering why my shoulders were working hard while my pecs weren't. Form is key.

Fellow poster, I ask you to chill a bit? Perhaps its a cultural barrier because your post does read as rude. I'm just sharing my opinion, on top of yours. Why go straight to the idea that we're fighting and one of us must win a discussion? I conceded to most of what you were saying and gave further pointers. Discussion can be productive and lead to a deeper understanding, which is why I ask you to please point to my errors of thinking, it's not about winning….

As I said, low intensity cardio is easier to maintain for long periods of time than high intensity cardio. Which means you can do more and burn more calories total. Not everyone can run for 30 minutes, but many can walk for a full hour. This is what I meant. Besides the point that high intensity cardio burns more carb storages and can lead to increased cravings for the same amount of calories burnt. I think we both agree that diet and calorie restriction is more important than burning calories by cardio.
>your body needs to spend more energy to maintain your muscles active as opposed to being atrophied and spending much less THROUGHOUT THE DAY, not during exercise, just train whatever, it'll help to lose weight.
The calorie expenditure change due to increased muscle mass is relatively small. Maybe you didn't mean that, I couldn't parse your comment to be honest. I'm guessing at what it's saying.
>pay attention to how I specifically said planks don't make you gain more strength
Fair enough, because in another part you did say they aren't good for strength. However, you also said this:
<otherwise planks are great, it's the main exercise to build bracing strength
I hope you see why I responded in such a manner.

Hating the author seems like a waste of time. Literal who. The show was OK. I don't like musicals. I fastworded those parts. The gay spider was very hot. Wouldn't have watched all of it if it weren't for him.

OMG It's doomer girl!
