Why does everyone suddenly seem to think it's ok to say the R word again? I feel like I hadn't heard it in years and suddenly everyone around me is using it, and I see it on Reddit all the time. Am I imagining it? Is anyone seeing this? I don't even know what to say when it's suddenly just everyone in a group and everyone acts like it's normal.

Cool. I figured I'd just troll my bookmarks and paste anything related, but there was more than I realised lol. I did cut back, but this still feels like a bit much, sorry 😂

lol, It is not too much at all. I mean, I won't be reading it all at once, but I love having resources

[–] DessertStorms@kbin.social 3 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

It's always nice to meet a fellow link collector lol

I'll admit it might be a while since I've read some of these myself (or in the case of the book pdf - not fully yet) so they might not all be up to date, but the gist should still stand.
