Subscribed! I appreciate it.

I love Tristram Shandy and just went full hog into it without preparation. It's a 18th century novel by Laurence Sterne. Tristram is pretty autistic kinda dude and has a need for being known, thus writing his autobiography.

Just in general there's lots of 18th and 19th century literature that's accessible by reading the notes and footnotes of a Penguin edition. Pick something that looks interesting and don't feel any need to finish it. (That obligation alone makes you read many less books imo.)

George Barret's Objections to Anarchism (1921) is my favorite little polemical piece that deals with many nervous tic type of objections to anarchism such as "but what if it doesn't work?" Well maybe it does, you can't just presuppose it doesn't and use that presupposition as a proof it doesn't because no other ideology either could ever pass the test if presupposing its failure was enough to disqualify it completely.

Barret's written to be accessible but is also clearly of its time, no study needed. It also has this all timer bit:

No. 19 If you abolish government, you will do away with the marriage laws.

We shall.

Tbh I've never enjoyed any disability community long enough to stick around, communities with significant overrepresentation of neurodiversity that are about something else have been better for me.

May his legacy be as lasting as that of the Dilberito. Rest in piss.

The only pleasant online shopping I've done is for used books because the antiquarians don't quite have the resources to iterate upon dark patterns with wild abandon.

I myself remain in the legitimate business. Always! 🫡

Just incredibly rancid stuff.

I can relate to this. I had a girlfriend with GGG cup boobs, now a warlord in Eastern Kentucky nd championship chicken breeder.
