Nikolai Ivanovich Bukharin, born on this day in 1888, was a Bolshevik revolutionary, Soviet politician, and Marxist theorist.
Nikolay Bukharin, the second son of Ivan Gavrilovich and Liubov Ivanovna Bukharin, was born in Moscow on 27th September 1888. His parents were primary school teachers and they helped him get a good education. He was brought up with progressive political views and took part in the 1905 Revolution.
As a young man, Bukharin joined the Russian Social Democratic Labour Party in 1906, becoming a member of the Bolshevik faction. He served on a committee that was infiltrated by the Tsarist secret police, the Okhrana, and was imprisoned and exiled in 1911.
In 1911, Bukharin escaped exile, fleeing to Germany. During this period, he met Vladimir Lenin for the first time and authored "Imperialism and World Economy", a work that predated and influenced Lenin's "Imperialism, the Highest Stage of Capitalism".
After Lenin's death in 1924, Bukharin became a full member of the Politburo, allying himself with Stalin in the power struggles of that period. Bukharin formulated the thesis of "Socialism in One Country" put forth by Stalin in 1924, which argued that socialism could be developed in a single country, even one as underdeveloped as Russia.
Bukharin was aligned with the forces that defeated Leon Trotsky, Lev Kamenev, and Grigory Zinoviev in various power struggles within the Communist Party. A supporter of the market-based New Economic Policy (NEP), Bukharin opposed Stalin's support of collectivization policies in the late 1920. On this basis, he was criticized and began politically conspiring against Stalin.
After the trial and execution of Zinoviev, Kamenev, and other leftist Old Bolsheviks in 1936, Bukharin was arrested in 1937 and charged with conspiring to overthrow the Soviet state. The following trial was controversial and drew international criticism, alienating some communist sympathizers abroad.
"We see now that infringement of freedom is necessary with regard to the opponents of the revolution. At a time of revolution we cannot allow freedom for the enemies of the people and of the revolution. That is a surely clear, irrefutable conclusion."

One winner and that's @LeninWeave so :rat-salute: .
Previous answer
L = length of train
v = velocity of train
L/t1 = v
(a + L)/t2 = v
Set the two equations equal to each other and multiply both sides by t1*t2.
Lt2 = at1 + L*t1
L*(t2 - t1) = a*t1
L = (a*t1)/(t2-t1)
Substitute L back into one of the first equations to get v. L is in yards, v is in yards/second.
Guessing the sum of spots on hidden faces
In the tower of three dice, you need only glance at the face of the top of the tower and you know the sum of five face: those on the four faces where two dice touch one another and the face on the bottom of the tower. In the diagram, the sum is 17.
Explain.
Making this a weekend problem since y'all are probably out partying or whatever y'all with lives do so have fun :soviet-heart: and remember to dm @Wmill the answer.

Im boycotting the landlord industry by being a faildaughter and never moving out of my parents house
Well I am Death, none can excel / I'll open the door to Heaven or Hell
I'll fix your feet 'til you can't walk / I'll lock your jaw 'til you can't talk / I'll close your eyes so you can't see / This very hour, come and go with me
Death, I come to take the soul / Leave the body and leave it cold / To drop the flesh off of the frame / The earth and worms both have a claim
The old, the young, the rich, or poor / All alike, me, you know / No wealth, no land, no silver, no gold / Nothing satisfies me but your soul
Out—out are the lights—out all!
And, over each quivering form,
The curtain, a funeral pall,
Comes down with the rush of a storm,
While the angels, all pallid and wan,
Uprising, unveiling, affirm
That the play is the tragedy, “Man,”
And its hero, the Conqueror Worm.

Sometimes I don’t like seeing the posts making fun of guys for ranting about their interests at bored girls. I understand that there’s an element of “it’s funny because it’s true” in that a big part of toxic masculinity is not needing to be attentive to others’ needs. At the same time, it genders and stigmatizes a really important part of my relationship, which is infodumping.
I get it. It’s boring to get info dumped at sometimes. But we’re both neurodivergent and have a mutual agreement to do our best to engage with the infodumps and remember enough to participate in future conversations because we both enjoy doing it so much and it’s a really nice way to bond and be involved in each other’s lives.
The gender swapped version of the stereotype is usually a woman dumping about the intricacies of a social situation that’s important to her and the joke is that the guy is always so bored and uninterested. This version is blatantly sexist and hacky (I have seen sooo many standup comedians do this bit).
I know they’re not completely equivalent but it would be nice to not feel like a burden or feel like a toxic man while doing one of my most healthy forms of self-expression with my partner and these stories are just a symptom of that gendered expectation.
Just got a glitch in Verdun (the WW1 videogame) where I became unable to die. Decided to explore the out-of-bounds parts of the map, and it was kind of a beautiful experience, walking through an increasingly barren woods as the sound of rifles and mortar fire gets farther and farther away. Very symbolic.
