@malkintrash.bsky.social In a sense intergenerational trauma is at the centre of this book: the authors grandmother committed suicide.
A lot of the other workers portrayed work obsessively not only for their own pension but also to make sure that their children back home can marry（买房买车生子）.

@feinsod.bsky.social Nah, PDFs are not better, it’s just that the instant gratification of downloading them gives a stronger dopamine kick…
But you miss out on the feeling of picking up a still warm pile of papers from the copier tray.

@bengtssonz.bsky.social Och här kommer själva grafen!
@bengtssonz.bsky.social ”The market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent.”
Om den här grafen som har valsat runt på mina socmed stämmer (stort ”om”: jag har inte gjort nån research och är helt okunnig i ekonomisk historia) så känns det inte som att en börskrasch nödvändigtvis är nära förestående.
@bokane.org In the introduction Kroll writes that 河嶽 (river[s]! and “alps”) is an elegant way of saying 山水 （landscape, countryside), but surely it is more specific? His own dictionary says that 河 is The River (the yellow one) and 嶽 are the five sacred peaks, so: “between The River and the Sacred Peaks”?
@bokane.org Well, at least he put his foot down and offered an actual interpretation…
@aohsusometimesy.bsky.social I wasted soo much time on this. I never really got the hang of it since I had…lost the instructions.
@elenaexisting.bsky.social I’m about halfway through JPM, but I’m on an extended pause, I can only take so much horrible-people-doing-horrible-things in a day.
I suppose I should get my act together and finish it.
