Should I start a carnivore/raw primal/high cholesterol ,high-fat diet?

Let's have a thread about chemistry. I can't be the only amateur chemist on here. To please the mods, everything in here is purely academic. Check local laws before you embark on your projects. And before you do anything, make sure you have appropriate safety equipment. Think about the worst thing that could happen to your reaction, because chances are it will. Don't be stupid.

Archive.org has plenty of old chemistry textbooks. The most useful ones for me are those meant to teach youngsters from the early 1900's.

Good idea. Perhaps a mod would be willing to move the thread.

Where to get chemicals
Useful chemicals can be found in many places. Read the material safety datasheets (MSDS) that goes with certain products. Useful places include:
Grocery stores
Hardware stores
Garden suppliers
Pool supply stores

Online suppliers in the EU:

high temperature electrochemistry, but that's not very exciting for regular peeps. so, the usual: R-candy, smoke bombs and thermite

Not sure if you fags play tabletop games that much, but what is up with the resurgence of OSR games on not only /tg/ but also reddit too? Race as class, no real ability modifiers, all that shit. I feel like OSR is boring as shit, and I have no ability to empathize with people who do like it, so I genuinely wonder, why are people into OSR stuff?

I played the entry tabletop games. Castles of burgundy, dominion, pandemic.

Had the most fun with Dominion, the game is dope, fairly easy to learn and has a fair bit of strategy. I like cob too, but its kind of long and drags on. They should keep making expansions for it and sell them like yugioh cards or something

I tried getting into D&D once, but then came across a 300pg instruction booklet. I passed got no time for that

I can’t understand how people crate high energy dogs, those guys are pretty smart and ideally need some job to do to be happy. It’s like prison for them.

If you want a lower energy dog, just get a small one. Papillons are known to be pretty smart and lower energy

so, does anyone have weird/autistic hobbies? I like collecting insects, arachnids, small animals and etc putting them in jars and observing them. I don't just chuck them in either, I make sure they have a decent home so I always insert grass/leaves/sand/whatever else they like. I used to have a miniature zoo at home but medical university makes it hard for me to keep a large collection unfortunately. I've been doing this since I was 4 years old, at least thats the earliest time I can remember doing this kind of thing.

I also recently got this book on VKhUTEMAS, which is often described as the "Soviet Bauhaus"—the author summarized the differences between the two in a lecture given at GARAGEMCA last year, which I thought was interesting:

Reminder this thread came out of /log/ talking about early CPUSA-adjacent artists in /log/. If anyone wants to learn more about that then by all means check out Andrew Hemingway's work.

>he is unironically doing gods work with helping losers get on their feet
Most of his useful advice is the same shit you'd find in any self-help book, I'm not exaggerating. The difference is he dresses it up in references to philosophy and positive psychology so people who think they're above self-help books think they're engaging in something deeper and more intellectual instead, and of course, he makes sure to tie self-improvement to right-wing politics in a way that seems inextricable to his listeners. No, he is unironically doing terrible work and it's worth attempting to discredit him whenever possible (which needless to say, this comic does not do).
>Sure, it is, but isn't it better for pathetic losers to be pathetically brought back into actual society in a cringey way, rather than to let them wallow in their failure and ruin their lives?
Yes, I agree. These people need help. But we shouldn't be convinced that the only useful help they can get is also one that indoctrinates them into conservatism.
