I read or listen to about 4-5 books per month. I focus more so on ADOS history and health topics.
I just finished this racist shyt last month via Audible.
The Cotton Kingdom: A Traveler’s Observations on Cotton and Slavery in the American Slave States, 1853-1861
Another good read -- it's important to read due to the "Black Confederate" myth out here.

Currently reading this book. The biography of Phil Knight and how he created Nike to become what it is today.
What i've learnt so far is
- You can be the hardest worker in the room but if you're not deemed as being invaluable to a company/person you can easily be dismissed by them for someone else
- The informant wil always be from your own stable

I got these books on my Amazon wishlist and will probably buy them this weekend.
Shyt is maddening. As of now I just watch her put the book down and stare into the distance. She does that a lot with this book that’s why I can’t wait to read it. Some of the shyt she recites is absolutely nuts.It was. Good but crazy book though. Again, whites are demonic - eating people and making clothes out of people.
How you feel about them trying to imply Frederick Douglass was sexually violated by Covey?
Most scholars view his comments about the incident as "metaphorically raped" -- but in Deletable Negro -- they imply he was physically raped.
Rethinking Rufus
And yes I knew u would know about this book based on your posts.
Lurking Class Hero
Medicine for loneliness
I'm currently reading serotonin by houellebecq. He makes my skin crawl but I find him relentlessly interesting. I have two ottomans full of books I bought years ago but never got round to reading, so I'm slowly getting through those and not allowing myself to buy any more physical books for now.
Before that was a book on New Labour by Polly Toynbee, which probably won't be of any interest to Americans; a short story by Kazuo Ishiguro, and an old Thomas Sowell book, markets and minorities. Even if you hate Sowell, the chapter on the economics of slavery, and particularly slave escape is well worth reading.
