I’m a mechanical engineer. well, by education anyways, and I’m unemployed at the moment. I’ve literally zero specialty and I pretty much don’t know shit and while I’ve got time to endlessly masturbate in my parent’s house and read, I might as well get some inspiration on what fields I should pursue.

Right now I’m reading this Molten Salt and Thorium reactor textbook

ANTS

ALL LEFTIES SHOULD LEARN THE WAYS OF THE ANT

Unironically, they make for an incredible model of societies and their moving parts, even down to how they recruit one another for group tasks and how labor is divided up (most of them don't do shit most of the time and it's a good thing)

AntWiki has the full text of EO Wilson's famous book, good place to dip your toes in https://antwiki.org/wiki/The_Ants
