I feel it in the water.

I smell it in the air.
Much that once was is lost.
For none now live who remember it.

I really didn't expect Henry V to be the reasonable one in this book
Richard II has some odd resonances to our current time, this is an interesting read if you're looking for medieval history

As our 1st state run detention center, "Alligator Alcatraz" bypasses federal laws & one of the results is that people are being disappeared, among other atrocities. Sharing the report from Amnesty International bc I don't know what else to do, this is horrifying

If you haven't read A Place of Greater Safety by Hilary Mantel you should, it's so good. She's always good, but the French Revolution, corruption etc feels so timely right now & what she's done with bi icon Camille Desmoulins is phenomenal. #booksky #hilarymantel

I had no idea buying an appliance from Costco would be such a mess, why doesn't anything work like it's supposed to anymore? They have outside installers who are completely incompetent & I don't get it. This has been a month & my dishwasher still isn't installed 🤯

New study by Falkena et al. shows that most climate models
don’t capture the established key mechanism that can destabilize the North Atlantic subpolar gyre. Those models that get it predict abrupt subpolar gyre changes in coming decades 😳.

If you want to push back against tech's encroachment into every corner of our lives, you have to read books. They're eager to create a future in which most people are illiterate and hooked on slop, a world without imagination or knowledge. Reading is resistance.
