Going on a 20 day trip to Europe this summer! Officially confirmed date is June 24!


Going to visit various towns in Italy, France and England, as well as live with local families several nights! Super excited!


So, I've been looking around for a book to read while I'm there, and I've settled on getting a single-volume of Dante's Divine Comedy with all cantos. I wanted something that's a good long read, and is influential to European culture.


What's the best translation/copy at an affordable price? Preferably hardback.


So far, I'm thinking of this copy by Freeman's Library. Love the company. Read a copy of 1984 and Catch-22 from them and they've got quality, beautiful products, would recommend. The translation is Mandelbaum’s, which is supposed to be pretty good.


Any books that are better? Like I said, a good long read that's influential.

Sigh, sex and gender are not the same thing. Your sex is what you are biologically, your gender is what you identify as. I would encourage you to read Fausto-Sterling's Sexing the Body as it is a very fascinating and SCIENTIFIC look at gender and sex and the politics behind a lot of it. Don't want to educate yourself? Here's a link to a pdf Fausto-Sterling wrote titled The Five Sexes: Why Male and Female Are Not Enough.

Here are some slides from my Women and Gender Studies class

Also, do you even know about intersex people? What sex and/or gender would you say they have? The world isn't black and white and I would sincerely encourage you to educate yourself as you sound like a right ignorant twat right now.

If you're into Sci-fi type books, you should check out The Sparrow. Easily one of my favorites that draws on philosophy, religion, linguistics, space travel, and more.

There was a follow-up called "Children of God" which I'd recommend if you like the first one.

Fair enough, you can buy second hand really cheaply though if you do want something to tide you over.


this pc with this cheap video card and maybe an ssd or just a cheap 500gb hard drive.

Will play this okay, as well as basically any game with a few things turned down. If you just got the PC and the video card, it's $150.

This can be read in a weekend and includes a pretty solid intro to Marxism in the first few chapters

I think these books would be more relevant:

The art of deception, Kevin Mitnick.

Clinical handbook of Psychological disorders.

..and perhaps...
The Discipline Miracle

> provides a unique framework for raising happy, well-adjusted children.

I'm not even going to attempt to argue with you over this point because, well, I don't really feel like it, however I will send you some links proving your claim otherwise.

I would also recommend you read a book called Red China Today about an American journalist who goes to china and reports on the situation.

Maybe this will help

I believe you have something to learn my boy.

Start with lettuce indoors using T5 grow lights. Something like these (Don't forget Civcraft's affiliate link!).

Rig it up so you can adjust the height of the lights so they're only a few inches above the lettuce. Just get some kind of a dirt tray with proper drainage and plant 2-4 lettuce heads every 3-4 weeks that way when your first batch dies you'll have a fresh batch coming in. Plus if you harvest the lettuce right you can keep harvesting it and it'll keep growing back. Eventually it'll go bad (you'll taste it, it gets milky) and just pull it out and grow a fresh one.

If you want to do cucumbers/tomatoes those require some beefy lights and will cost more in electric than you get from the fruits.

>I should probably do my own oil change, now because it will save me any money (it will actually cost more) but just so that I know what's going on.

If you make a habit of doing your own oil changes, replace oil drain plug with a valve like this one, because fuck oil pans.

OP AS HELL!

Nah, I left out the anarchist charges against him (which are lengthy as well). Surprisingly, most of this was actually mentioned in my Civil Rights law class last year, by my NAACP-affiliated professor who was personally involved in the civil rights movement. Here, I'll add some sources:

> The Emancipation Proclamation was an announcement that ended slavery... only in places where Lincoln had no power to end slavery (the rebelling states). Slavery persisted in several states where he did have the power to end slavery. It was entirely a political move, designed to shore up support among abolitionists and hopefully sow discord in the South. Lincoln's plan for the end of the war was to deport blacks to Africa and the West Indies, because he didn't believe the races could live side-by-side.

> Lincoln shut down newspapers that criticized him, jailed thousands of political opponents without trial for speaking out against him, and participated in significant internal corruption (such as buying land the railroad wanted to build on, and then having the government grant it to the railroad at taxpayer expense) [can't immediately find a source on this - often tough with history stuff because the field is still book-based]. He suspended habeas corpus, had draft protestors killed [possibly justified force, but probably excessive to kill ~100 for the deaths of 10 - also, the wiki erroneously says 100 blacks killed, but this is not what the cited source says], committed genocide against Native Americans, and tortured Northern civilians [source note - no credible Internet links for this, but this book details water torture, and is written by a highly-respected historian and supporter of Lincoln].

Don't mistake any of this as a defense of the Confederacy - their leadership was just as bad (though not as bloody as some of Lincoln's underlings such as Sherman and Burnsides). I still think FDR was worse, but he's remembered almost as well was Lincoln.
