Rereading "To Kill a Mockingbird"

Just finished Shock Doctrine. Klein's observations are on point, economic shock therapy is just the same old quackery as 1950s psychiatric shock therapy was when they tortured people with depression and anxiety.

just got back from a week-long sesshin (zen meditation retreat), so no reading during that time, lol. a bunch of my holds came in at the library though! "Prophet Against Slavery" about the early American emancipationist vegan Quaker Benjamin Lay, "Vegan Africa" by Marie Kacouchia, and also "Borne" by Jeff Vandermeer. gonna be on the road a lot this week so i am hoping to make some progress on these!

Le Guin's Always Coming Home. It's a very slow read, but beautiful, I might be reading this for the next month or so...

The carnism is always a little jarring but such is life.
