Hey comrades, I'm thinking about getting a degree. About 7-8 months ago I made a post asking about the process of obtaining citizenship in China and I was met with the expected response that I should continue my education if I wished to stay there long-term. Initially I dismissed the advice and just put away the idea of living in China long-term, but in the past few months I think I've come around to continuing my education.

This is a big deal for me, I dropped out of highschool when I was 18 and just two years from graduation because the school I was going to would shut down and I couldn't stomach starting over again at a new school in the middle of the George Floyd Riots and the COVID-19 Pandemic. I eventually tried to finish my highschool diploma but when the school went under a bunch of my credits just vanished into thin air and I was looking at another 3½ years of highschool so I gave up again.

Now I'm 23 and with the support of my comrades on the commune I am finally feeling confident about picking up my schooling again, I'm planning on biting the bullet on the GED (which I should have done in the first place instead of going for the highschool diploma) and applying for college.

I'm looking at mycology, I've had an interest in it since I was 18 and I love microscopic organisms. Fungi are extremely interesting to me and I'd love to learn more about them in ways that are not from the pervasive pop-science or spiritual/psychedelic angles that dominate in the West.

I just wanted to share this with others, I'm excited and I've already started crawling through my old textbooks!

Here's a little video for folks new to adventure mode by Blind!

Try to solve it yourself before revealing the answer!

I just wanted to express my appreciation to everyone here for making Lemmygrad what it is. I love reading your analyses and seeing the memes you share. You always make me feel better and give me the motivation to keep fighting when something horrible is going on in our world. No other online Marxist community has been such a positive influence on my life like this one has, love you all very much. <3

Toki, comrades!

I created this community because I wanted to create a Toki Pona community for socialists and communists of the materialist variety, the mainstream Toki Pona community is hosted on a discord called "ma pona pi toki pona" which while an incredibly useful resource with it's own share of leftists is also home to liberalism, vulgar idealism and hosted on Discord which I do not like as much as Matrix!

I intend to create a space on matrix for this community hosted on the genzedong matrix server, too. If anyone wants to help me sort this out and be a mod on the matrix space, hit up my inbox or reach out to me on Matrix: @catfish:genzedong.xyz

I'm looking for mods to help me organize this community with a reworked sidebar with a Toki Pona translation and to help me come up with weekly threads too, feel free to reach out to me with the methods listed above if interested and I look forward to having fun with Toki Pona with you!

Hexbears are cordially invited to this Toki Pona community I'm creating at [email protected]!

I'm so excited for adventure mode to make it's return! Do you have any favorite moments from adventure mode?

I believe going off of what I see in the bottom left that the painting is probably post-2000 but I can't be sure. I can really feel the camaraderie of these two comrades.

Hey just wanted to see if anybody had any news about Niger, it's been quiet in my circles and I hope things are going well. If anyone has any news sites they could share that touch on Niger that would be appreciated.

Edit: I accidentally typed in Nigeria instead of Niger. I changed the title and body to reflect that I'm trying to learn about the situation in Niger.

Hey comrades, I'm looking to hear experiences from people who've received visas or citizenship for China.

I'm thinking about moving to China in the future but my resume isn't stellar. I've never graduated US highschool and my only work experience is as a farmhand, in a warehouse, and in a factory. I don't think I have any extremely marketable skills for something like a work visa. Interested to hear from y'all!

I made this edit a year or so back when a comrade of mine showed me the original and I couldn't help but think of Ridin' Dirty. Thought folks here would enjoy it.
