Considering the kinds of questions OP was asking, which group does it sound like he falls into?

Quit resigning and start disobeying, you cowards!

I'd love to see more about how the rebellion came together, especially how it almost didn't.

I feel like it's weird your comment didn't mention Rebels. Don't ignore it just because it's a cartoon.

With computer stuff, you can do even better: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Literate_programming

TL;DR: your documentation and your shell script (sequence of console commands you run to accomplish the task) can be the same file.

(Dunno what kind of chemistry you do, but you may have already come across this concept in the form of Jupyter notebooks or something like that.)

While I'm at it, I'd also like to mention Ansible and Git, for when you really want to keep good records and have a reproducible setup. Don't worry about them immediately as it's probably too overwhelming to learn all at once, but keep 'em in the back of your mind for later.

Remember the part where it took basically ecoterrorism to get the point across?

How far back do you have to go to find whales with fingernails/claws?

Honestly, I don't think it's possible to get by just trusting any particular guide without developing at least some actual understanding of the concepts underlying what you're doing. The field is just too wide and rapidly changing for any source of info to be authoritative (and stay authoritative indefinitely after the guide is written), so it's super important to develop the skill of looking up multiple different and possibly conflicting approaches to the task, thinking critically about them, and then synthesizing your own approach that works for your specific situation.

LOL, nice try with the blatant dishonest spin. Too bad your attempt to falsely paint ICE as the 'good guys' falls flat if you've got two brain cells to rub together and realize that they were there to kidnap the workers, not arrest the owners.

Let me know when somebody finally makes an affordable long-john style bike and sells it in the US.

No, we need to slam a Top 40 classic rock song in there because that’s the only thing the plebeians who see this movie will understand.

I wasn't actually sure when i wrote it (it just sounded "truthy"), but I just checked and found this:

Some adherents of the QAnon conspiracy theory have also borrowed from the reptilian conspiracy theory, including elements shared in anti-Semitic conspiracy theories.

Tire wear particles enter rivers and lakes primarily via wind and rain. These particles account for 50% to 90% of all microplastics that run off roads during rainfall. Furthermore, scientific extrapolations suggest that nearly half (45%) of the microplastics found in soil and water come from tire abrasion.

The concentration of tire wear particles in water bodies can vary by several orders of magnitude, ranging from 0,00001 to 10.000 milligrams per liter.

The particles contain a complex mixture of different compounds, including toxic substances: heavy metals such as cadmium and zinc and organic substances such as the ozone protection or antioxidant 6-PPD. If the tire wear particles end up in freshwater ecosystems, the pollutants are leached out there.
