Weekly Improvement Thread - Nov 16th 2025

Hello comrades and welcome to the third improvement megathread of November!

We are in the middle of November. It's a good time to remind ourselves of our goals for this month.

Some discussion ideas:

    
+ How was your week?

+ How is your November going so far?

+ Do you have some plans for next week?

Poster caption

"Greetings to the world’s largest Dnieprostroi Hydroelectric Station that has started operating. Long live the most productive workers of socialist construction! DGES (Hydroelectric Station Of Dnieper-Petrovsk)."

This poster is oversized. The Dnieprostroi Hydroelectric Station was built on the Dnieper River, the third largest river in Europe. Soviet architects designed the dam and its buildings while a U.S. team assisted with the engineering. When completed in 1932, the dam was the biggest in the world and it was a tremendous achievement for the First Five-Year Plan and for the Soviet Union.
