Freedom's just a metaphor when you've got nowhere to go. Get lost, read a book. 🏴󠁧󠁒󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

I see.
Article 1, section 8 - "Boring, yawn"
2nd Amendment - "Hell yuh, Murica!"
Is that what you mean?

When it was highlighted on social media last year I didn't know what they were talking about, I'd completely forgotten about it.
But then again, this can be me with a book I read just six months ago....lol.

Never mind the UN, a good start would've been getting Congress to back him and then go to the UN.

I read it back in '87 and what with the slurs and the controversial s*x scene, I know that rereading it now would affect me so much more than it did then.

Post the cover of a book you love from the '90s.

The other book I read while in this state was 'Fire Pattern' by Bob Shaw, it was about spontaneous human combustion.😳😬🀭

Warning!
Do not read while experiencing stomach flu induced fever.
May cause mild paranoia and fever dreams.

Oh, I recognise those "funny" bits, unfortunately they now make me cringe.
I've only myself to blame.😁

The current series I'm reading I read back when I was 12-ish and I found it to be so witty and laugh out loud funny in parts.
I'm not 12 now and I've still got 7+ books to go.
Misery, thy name is nostalgia.

This is an important thread. As a doctor, and as the father of a daughter incapacitated with Long Covid I know only too well how the NHS has abandoned them.

There is much to do in research into treatments and I am glad that colleagues like Binita are championing the forgotten children and adults.

Maybe it’s a bad idea to put people in charge of government who are eager for the rapture.

My Grandfather had Tourette’s. I know that he experienced prejudice and attempts to bully him. I’ve been pretty stunned that in the reaction to the Davidson episode, we’ve seen a lot of the ignorance that he, a man living his life in the mid 20th century, would have recognised only too well.

I did enjoy the 'Monk and Robot' books.
This week, and beyond, I am reading the 'Stainless Steel Rat' series by Harry Harrison.
(Also 'Fake Heroes' by Otto English in between.)

Just finished this one, my 2nd LS-R and I rather enjoyed it.
She does have a talent for making the reader stop dead in their tracks and go "WHAT?!?!"
Bonus, you really learn things about the Georgian period in London that, if you're like me, you didn't know before.
It's like an edyukashon.😁

I'm not really getting the "Five authors I've read at least five books of" thing.
Is that an achievement of some sort?
I haven't read a gazillion books but I could probably think of twenty authors.
Or is it a way to get to know you?
Anyway, as I said, I'm puzzled, lol.

BBC’s Laura Kuenssberg interviews disgraced former PM Boris Johnson for her Sunday show?

I mean this is just ludicrous.
