I'll also add a rec for Let's Not [Obliterate], which is a very queer twist on the Overpowered Protagonist trope, and while a sapphic romance is pretty core to the story I'd say it's more about depression than the romance.

I can't believe that Necroepilogos

and Katalepsis

haven't been named here so far, people are slacking. Both are excellent stories that have a lot of horror, Necroepilogos more of the post-apoc, Katelepsis of the Lovecraft sort.

chat, is this good?
surely linking as many parts of the economy to the plagiarism machine promising the impossible won't come back to bite us, right?

This single image is pulled from a longer series of images that goes into exactly the context that is missing when just the first image is pulled:

reading about the Treaty Ports in China in particular and their system of extraterritoriality, discrimination and wealth extraction should be informative too

If text is fine then Ta Nehisi-Coates has a good summary of a bunch of his odious takes:

He also very pointedly relates the whitewashing going on right now to the Lost Cause hagiography of the Jim Crow era
headline of the linked article reading "Charlie Kirk, Redeemed: A Political Class Finds Its Lost Cause" with the subheader reading "By ignoring the rhetoric and actions of the TPUSA founder, pundits and politicians are sanitizing his legacy" final two paragraphs of the article reading: "More than a century and a half ago, this country ignored the explicit words of men who sought to raise an empire of slavery. It subsequently transformed those men into gallant knights who sought only to preserve their beloved Camelot. There was a fatigue, in certain quarters, with Reconstruction—which is to say, multiracial democracy—and a desire for reunion, to make America great again. Thus, in the late 19th century and much of the 20th, this country’s most storied intellectuals transfigured hate-mongers into heroes and ignored their words—just as, right now, some are ignoring Kirk’s. Words are not violence, nor are they powerless. Burying the truth of the Confederacy, rewriting its aims and ideas, and ignoring its animating words allowed for the terrorization of the Black population, the imposition of apartheid, and the destruction of democracy. The rewriting and the ignoring were done not just by Confederates, but also by putative allies for whom the reduction of Black people to serfdom was the unfortunate price of white unity. The import of this history has never been clearer than in this moment when the hard question must be asked: If you would look away from the words of Charlie Kirk, from what else would you look away?"

if you swap the app from showing the duration for just the chapter to the entire audiobook then you can scroll through the entire thing in one go, but the longer the audiobook the less precise it is obviously.
It's generally a really poorly designed app.
