A little patch of land.
Bread on the table.
A dear friend you can talk to.
A small house you can call Home.
Rabbits…Such a modest dream. And yet so impossibly out of reach.

Joseph Conrad - The Heart of Darkness
A novella that took me just as long to read as a book three times as thick.
The story and style made it necessary for me to stop reading after a few pages. Like the old steamer struggling upstream, I was pushing myself on, wrestling Conrad’s prose.
The darkness oozes out of his words, tainting Kurtz then Marlow, then the writer and also the reader. Which is of course, exactly how it is. Racism and colonialism are still poisoning the wells that feed the fountains from which Europeans drink.
Although it is written in disgust, I think the book is still deeply colonial in a ‘manifest destiny’ kind of way. Never did I get the feeling that someone thought it could or even should be different.
Nihilist disgust in a painfully difficult style - Heart of Darkness is a black metal album in prose.
Deserves its ‘classic' status and I do recommend reading it. I hope to reread it one day.

Reading is a highly effective way to reduce stress, lowering heart rate and muscle tension, often more quickly than walking or listening to music. It acts as a form of meditation, promoting a calm, focused mental state.

Sci-fi has changed a lot since its "Golden Age" in the '50s & '60s, and I'm got some thoughts about it.

Hey Internet! I am in the market for an ereader.
I'd like for it to like the old nook, in the it resembles paper. The only back light is the yellow light for night reading.
I want access to libby and hoopla.
I want the ability to save pdf and epub files to it.
I do not want browser or bloatware. No games. No message capability.
Just a fairly stripped down ereader.
I want to get my kid off the tablet for reading. There's too much distraction.

Amadou Hampāté Bā - Jawel, commandant In het voetspoor van de vertellers
Het tweede deel van zijn memoires eindigt Amadou Hampāté Bā, die zeker 90 is geworden, rond zijn 33ste, als hij zijn spiritueel leermeester Tierno Bokar verlaat om als ambtenaar in Bamako te gaan werken.
De stijl blijft vriendelijk vertellend vanuit een wijs hart: "Generalisaties, op welk gebied ook, weerspiegelen nooit de werkelijkheid".
Alhoewel hij dus mild van toon blijft -te mild, gok ik, voor dekolonisatie denkers- komt in dit deel de afschuwelijke praktijk van kolonisatie wel meer aan bod. Hij beschrijft het, maar op zo'n toon dat het prettig lezen blijft voor (het nageslacht van de) kolonisatoren. Ik weet niet precies wat ik daar van vind, behalve dan dat alleen de memoires van Bā imho onvoldoende zijn voor een begrip van zelfs alleen de geschiedenis van West-Afrika.
Maar het boek bevat veel pareltjes van wijsheid. Kritiek op macht spreekt mij natuurlijk altijd aan, dus het spreekwoord "Macht graast geen gras, macht eet mensen" blijft me bij, net als een les van Tierno Bokar: "Amadou, denk niet dat macht ooit één nacht heeft doorgebracht met waarheid en recht".
Zo is het.

An interesting review of experience and resilience during the Black Death.
The Black Death killed approximately 100 million people (about half the world’s population) between 1347 and 1353. Subsequent outbreaks, which occurred every few years until the 18th century, took millions more lives.

Hello all! for those of you who don't know I have been trying to make a proposal to draw up a standard on readable Manga for the blind and print disabled, and as of latest I wrote a post on the audiogames.net forums going over some of the questions that people may have, and the most pressing matter of money for the project. Take a look at the post at https://forum.audiogames.net/post/961738/#p961738
