Use-value is the value of an object in the eyes of the consumer, the actual value that it provides when it is used. The use-value of an apple -> it nurtures your body.

Exchange-value is the quantifiable value of an object in an exchange. How does the value apple measure against an orange? The exchange-value of an apple -> the number of socially necessary labor time to produce it (according to the labor theory of value).

Oh, for sure, they’re all 19th century books. He can probably get everything he’s interested in reading from Project Gutenberg or something.

No, it wasn’t The Last Days of Pompeii, it ended with am Rom I think.

I’ll pass on those recommendations lol. When I was a kid he had us reading the viking stories in the car on the way to school so we would practice our German, I thought they were cool stories tbh. I had forgotten all about them until I read Jared Diamond’s Collapse book recently.

Me: “What did you think about Trump’s mugshot?”

My neighbor: “We got him!”

Me: “My daughter laughed and said it was funny that “they put him in timeout” because he was only there for like 20 minutes.”

My neighbor: “Wait, he’s out already?”
