I recently found a film made by the US Government in the 1940s entitled "Don't Be a Sucker", and honestly I think it should be shown in every school across the country. It's terrifying that this is still relevant over eighty years later. youtu.be/vGAqYNFQdZ4?...

Finished ‘Epiphany’ by Nicholas Yermakov. Very strange Alien encounter book. While not in depth in world building, a very interesting idea for an alien species.

Just finished ‘Lord of the Flies’ by William Golding. I never expect much from literature classics, but I was genuinely shocked and thrilled by this one.

Just finished ‘Ultramega’ Vol. 1 by James Harren and Dave Stewart. Incredible art work and disgustingly twisted story. Looking for vol 2 now.

Just finished ‘The Messenger’ by Mona Williams. A very slow novel, boarded thriller and science fiction, but definitely a hotter book. The ending was wonderfully twisted

I’ve finished all 7 seasons of Star Trek The Next Generation.
This show has been incredible. I love the characters, the world building, and the endless cycle that crescendos in the final episode.

Just finished ‘American Psycho’ by Bret Easton Ellis. Swings wildly from boring to disgusting to unnerving. Not recommending for weak stomachs. I’m about to watch the movie to compare

Just Finished ‘Future Crimes’, edited by Jack Dann and Gardner Dozis. My favorite of this collection of sci-fi stories was ‘Repent Harlequin’ by Harlan Ellison

Finished ‘It Can’t Happen Here’ by Sinclair Lewis. Horrifying to say the least but (in these times) impossible to put down. Please read if you haven’t already!!!

Finished ‘How to be an Antiracist’ by Ibram X. Kendi. While I don’t love the writing style, the ideas, tone, and deconstruction of the title topic were engaging. The book helped me to think more in-depth about racism then I ever had before
