Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

Ooh, that sounds like a very cool thing.

I need to download and sort some theory to read and put it on my devices... the family camping trip is coming up, there's pretty bad cell service in the campground, and I always get caught out with nothing good to read. As I spend the night before we leave scrambling to pack the final things.

If you have this set up you can use their mobile app to sync books to your phone so you can listen to them offline.

Ooh, looks good, can't wait to sink my teeth into some of this, thanks comrade!

I highly highly recommend Palo Alto and Indigenous Paleolithic of the Western Hemisphere. They cover some big blind spots among the western left regarding indigenous stuff.

It's the Rodney Yellow Thunder online library put together by Sungmanitu and some other comrades in CLN, I kinda helped. 8 gigabytes of decolonial theory.

MEGA very stingy with allowing downloads, it would seem. Even with an account, I hit their "transfer limit" of 5GB in a single six-hour period.

Ooh, neat. I might have an old device lying around that'd be possible to set something like that up on, using that specifically for theory is the most leftist thing ever. Will have to look into that.
