I really like NK Jemisin's stone lore & other lorist comments/observations at the end of chapters -- factoring in that it is often a cold, matter-of-fact guide on survival during Collapse (aka a Season - "Winter Spring Summer Fall, Death is the Fifth & Master of them all") that has been revised by those benefitting from survivorship bias & ableist.

It is not necessarily to be followed. Often shouldnt be, frankly.

Broken Earth WikiStone LoreTablet 1: On Survival Verse 3: “Beware ground on loose rock.  Beware hale strangers.  Beware sudden silence.” (The Fifth Season, Chapter 10) Verse 4: “Before, gather into stable rock for each citizen one year’s supply: ten rullets of grain, five of legume, a quarter-tradet dry fruit, and a half storet in tallow, cheese, or preserved flesh.  Multiply by each year of life desired.  After, guard upon stable rock with at least three strong-backed souls per cache: one to guard the cache, two to guard

"If you find it difficult to think of a #river as alive, try picturing a dying or dead river. This is easier ... Can a forest think? Does a mountain remember? Is a river alive?"
One of my favourite nature writers is Robert Macfarlane. And since I can follow him again on another place, I get his new texts. Here's a great #essay from his coming #book 'Is A River Alive': theguardian.com/books/2025/apr

Spring has really sprung--The Millions has put out its list of some of the books being published over the few months. A few that have caught my eye are: The Stolen Heart by Andrey Kurkov, Now, the People! by Jean-Luc Mélenchon, These Survivals by Lynne Huffer, and I Gave You Eyes and You Looked Toward Darkness by Irene Solà. Along with a few others of course!

Finished "Red Famine: Stalin's War on Ukraine" by Anne Applebaum.

A book focusing on the Holodomor, the famine in Ukraine during 1932 & 1933.

It killed millions of people, on purpose.

I almost stopped listening to this. Not because it's a bad book, but because it's too horrific to listen.

Everything that you could eat, was taken, destroyed or spoiled. Every little thing!

People went crazy from hunger.

...people did this on purpose to other people...

Jeffrey M. Masson - Wovon Schafe träumen
Spannende Berichte und fundierte Forschung, die belegen, dass Tiere Empfindungen und Fähigkeiten haben, die mensch sich weigert anzuerkennen.

Aber dies würde in der Konsequenz ja bedeuten, dass das Essen und der Missbrauch von Tieren nicht zu rechtfertigen sind.
Lieber geben wir uns der Illusion hin, dass der Mensch über dem Tier steht.
Übrigens: das Buch ist von 2003 und wir sind kaum weiter.....

Das Cover des Buches ist grün, oben sind drei Ferkelchen abgebildet, von einem (ganz links) sieht man nur die Schnauze. Unten eine Gans und ein Schaf.
