Last assigned reading of the session. As important as economic behavior is, it bores me to tears. 😭
Hi all, I'm in need of some help!
For my MA this semester, I am discussing bierasure in YAL. I am trying to find YA books with openly bisexual characters and I'm drawing a blank. So far I have:
- Leah on the Offbeat
- Girl, Serpent, Thorn
- Heartstopper
Anyone have any other recs? xo

I've read excerpts before, but never the whole thing, and Weber neatly ties together the early modern protestant thinkers' ideas with the economic circumstances of the world at the time, and how they formed the attitudes to labor and wealth we see today. Protestants be working.
Favourite tree, good book, lovely group chat on phone, nice weather, coffee
My day off before the weekend activity! I am grateful it is such an incredibly beautiful day.
"are you still reading this?" you ask. Yes, yes I am, mainly because I was sick last weekend (negative for covid, fortunately, but still lackluster, and once I felt better I still didn't want to go anywhere for a while just to be safe.) And then the beginning of this week kicked my ass. But! A garden cafe near my house has socially distanced seating, so I was there for lunch today.
"Evidently, then, the orientation of religious needs to present emotional satisfaction could not develop so powerful a motive to rationalize worldly activity, as the need of the Calvinistic elect for proof with their exclusive preoccupation with the beyond. " she said, eating a croissant ?. Yes this could have been translated better.
