Welcome to Litsy!

Apparently Ardent‘s The Origins of Totalitarianism includes three separate sections, which have also been published separately. This tagged book is taking me much longer to read than I anticipated because of its parallels to life now.
Interestingly, our freshman World History class just finished a unit on imperialism, & Cecil Rhodes & his crass attitude towards Africa & its people are duly noted.

Mini readathon for the next two days... Actually just Sat/Sun mornings. My chunkster will be set aside and I'm going to enjoy these books. Happy weekend!

A quick listen, though I was supposed to read this slowly, as the title suggests. I liked it, though I‘m not sure how much will stick, so it would be better to have this in print for a bigger impact. Several points really resonated and would be excellent for people to hear, especially the sections about finding the common ground and realizing that often religions have more in common than what separates them. Delight in the simple things in life.

Didn‘t sleep well, so I read some of this book & then I stretched. Lorelei tried to steal the yoga mat again 😆😆😆

Read for #NaturalItsy #LitSolace this was a lovely little book. While not every point made was applicable to me, there were lots of ideas, thoughts & quotes that resonated & that I highlighted. A good calming read overall for a January that‘s gone crazy. 🍵

Just a little vent session. An author I read and enjoy posted to their group about why she feels you should replace your kindle with a kobo or an iPad. I info shared about some of things that went into my decision to keep a kindle bc hey I spent hours researching so why not make sure on this very the zon is evil post that I throw it out there for others. I was snarked back at. When did we lose the ability to even discuss ereader merits?! 👇

One way I'm going to try to endure these next four years is to point out so-called “logical“ fallacies from this #ldf (lame-duck felon) and his underlings when I can. I'm filing these in my brain as #weirdwords because most logical people avoid these imbecilic traps.
