One Second After by William Forstchen was good. Tough, realistic, and interesting take on SHFT- EMP edition. Getting the sequel.
Annoyed by the patriarchal POV and intro by Limbaugh. Why is Prepping conservative male dominated?

Skipped The Jungle for now.
Alas, Babylon by Pat Frank is a lovely book about SHTF-nuclear edition. Easy to read and aged decently considering it was written in 1959.
Going to look for the tv show mini version....

Currently reading Never Let Me Go. Not sure how it ended up on my list and only a third into it. So far, MEH.
Up next: Upton Sinclair's The Jungle. About meat packing, wage slavery, and socialism. And eventually led to the creation of the FDA and major updates within the USDA. Feels timely.

Finished reading Oryx and Crake by Margaret Atwood. I didn't think it was amazing writing, but the story is worthwhile. Kinda sci-fi, internal viewpoint vs the base, external view of Parable.

TIL that Google Assistant is by default "learning" from all the apps on your phone. Instructions to disable it in the link. You have to do it for each individual app, and after you do it it takes you back to the top of the list of apps. Classic dark pattern programming.

I'm tired of liberals thinking magas are going to regret their choices. They don't care if they suffer as long as liberals (and anyone else they don't like) suffers too.

Meta is blocking links to FB and Insta alternatives. I'm here, and might join PixelFed at some point. But I don't miss doom scrolling.

Read Parable of a Sower. More realistic than 1984 or BNW.
