Hello comrades and welcome to the third improvement megathread of July! 
Some discussion ideas:
-
How was your week? -
Do you have some plans for next week? -
Do you have any sober days or streaks? -
Do you have some useful resources that you can share?

poster lore
The Komsomol was the All-Union Leninist Young Communist League. It was first called the Russian Young Communist League (RKSM) but with the unification of the U.S.S.R., it was made an all-union organization and youth division of the All-Union Communist Party. Komsomol was the final tier of the three youth organizations in the U.S.S.R. Members were between the ages 14 to 28 and they joined after graduating from the Young Pioneers. Prior to being Pioneers, they graduated at age 9 from the Octobrists.
I listen to a bunch of different podcasts, here are some of my favourites:
Guys with Bryan Quinby - a podcast about different types of guys. This is basically required listening for Hexbears. Every episode, the hosts and the guest of that week choose a type of silly online guy and read funny posts and reviews.
Pew Pew Bang - a gaming podcast which is also a slumber party. Four women from games media chat about games and stuff. Immaculate vibes.
Overdue - a podcast about the books you’ve been meaning to read. Every week they read one book and talk about it. Wide range of books and very nice hosts.
If Books Could Kill - also a podcast about books, but this one is specifically about bad books. Bad popular science books, bad books about relationships, bad political books. It’s funny and informative.
All of these podcasts have good politics, which is a bonus.
