This morning I spent more than four hours reading Justifying Genocide: Germany and the Armenians from Bismarck to Hitler, mostly because I am really interested in seeing how the Armenian massacres influenced the Third Reich. I was surprised to see that anti‐Armenian sentiment was actually very common in the Twoth Reich, to the point where some popular writers described Armenians as being worse than Jews. I am very interested in seeing how much of this transferred over to the Third Reich.
On a more personal note, I really want to sleep; I feel awful. I napped for one hour yesternight and I don’t feel tired enough to stay asleep… I’ll go retry anyway ~~but I’ll likely end up wasting time again~~.
ETA: I feel better.
any scifi/fantasy novel/series recommendations?
What's your poison? Hard sci-fi? Lighter stuff?
hard sci-fi with complex details. and i also like comedy fantasy series as well like discworld. brandon sanderson stuff is also fine with me.
Alistair Reynolds for hard sci fi. He spins a good yarn.
The Orville is good, though its a show
For books, I liked The Martian
Westworld season 1 (dont bother with the rest), if you haven't watched it.
Mushoku tensei, best fantasy worldbuilding i've seen on anime. It also started the infamous isekai genre.
fair warning: Mushoku Tensei has a mentally-40-years-old-but-physically-13 MC in a very questionable relationship with a minor
While true, the point of the series is about an resentful incel growing as a person through the second chance he was given in the other world.
sure, it's just a warning for those who are very uncomfortable with things like that
Apparently a whistleblower just confessed to US Congress that aliens are real and this is big news for some reason. Is it just me, or have they confirmed "Aliens are real" like 6 times in the last few years? Why is such an obvious distraction so captivating to people?
The world is boiling and roasting, China is surpassing the US, Russia is winning against NATO, the brics multipolar world order is emerging, the dollar is slowly crumbling.
They need a distraction and they need it big, the next barbie movie don't suffice
europeans waking up to the fact that granting american companies open market access to their market is a mistake.
I walked into a big hardware store the other day to buy a notebook for my new job. There was this completely random stand with Karl Marx piggybanks for some reason lol. Wild to see Marx out in the open.
Moscow got attacked with UAVs last night. Supposedly they got intercepted and jammed, but this resulted in them crashing into the business district. No casualties have been reported.
Anyone got any info on the coup in Niger? who's behind it?
