I kind of want to talk to you about something privately, I know I have made a bad impression by being so mopey, but its about a book and whether I should read it.

Not gonna lie, after 10 years this wasn't quite I imagined it would end. But as much as I would like to acknowledge the complexities of the issue, and accept my fault in all this, the inescapable conclusion that "in the final analysis, it really was down to all them" keeps coming back.

Finally got around to actually reading Workers Spatula. Insane stuff, very funny when I could work out what it was actually talking about, but the real highlight is figuring out which one of the three or four writers wrote whichever article. Felt a lot like reading a very longrunning groupchat.

Glad you're digging it, an embarrassing amount of my political development as a ween came from trying to reverse engineer what the punchlines were on some of those articles.

Sometimes I wish there'd would be some guide of the likes of "So you want to write some Alternate History timeline?" because I've no idea how to do so and not lost momentum immediately after posting twice..

Ah, i was interested on the dispositions of the Kwantung Army and the Far Eastern Front, as well as if the Soviets aren’t asleep on the wheel and their ability to mobilize earlier.

Also just brought me to the realization that most “well-regarded” WWII TLs saw the Eastern Front as kind of a sideshow—despite being the raison d’etre of Nazi policy—and usually the Soviets aren’t portrayed with as much care as the Americans, British or Free French.
