Very cool, I got to see it years ago (and at that time I didn't know his original gravesite was elsewhere, wish I would have seen that too). There were a couple of letters that people had left from all over the world. It was touching.

The far future is truly Lovecraftian and hard to fathom. Eventually star formation will cease, most of the timespan of the universe will be the "dark era" where black holes slowly evaporate due to Hawking Radiation. Then there will only be light, and when there is only light then time itself ceases to exist as a meaningful construct. Space, too, perhaps. Then there is an alternative, even longer ending, if it's possible for light itself to decay.

Can confirm. SC is bad y'all

Hey don't despair! Do you want to be one with me? Of one mind and body?

Trump will literally delete ~~the existence of food from~~ America

I remember the moment when dedollarization seemed imminent (I was lurking around here). So I appreciate the dose of realism (even if it's a buzz kill lol)

If you don't mind, may ask you for some resources on how to better understand the monetary system, foreign exchange, etc.

I've been reading Marxist (and Marx adjacent) economics papers from a production/value (this is what am calling it) perspective (authors such as Pasinetti, Sraffa, Shaikh, Wright, Mohun, etc.) and feel like I have gotten a better understanding of that tiny subfield. It helped me better understand input output tables, labor values, their relation to prices, and etc. But I am much less knowledgeable when we turn to actual money, international exchange etc etc. I need a good set of resources to understand even the basics I feel. Maybe someone here will say it's all in Marx and I'm betraying my ignorance. If so, then point me to whichever passage lol. There likely isn't one resource to cover all the basics, but any thing you can share would be appreciated. Thank you!

Like me some Amin. Thanks for sharing, will read

And it's wall to wall books on military "history" (solely on WWII) combined with books on "authoritarian dictators" like Stalin and Hitler, who are exactly the same person.

Bookstores used to be my favorite place to go to when I was a wee kid (no big library where I grew up). :(
