  • "Thank You For My Service" by Matt Best.... "Black Rifle Coffee Co" founder

    I used to enjoy Mat Best's videos, and such. But, IMO, he's long past his 15 minutes of fame.

    Clint Emerson's "The Right Kind of Crazy: My Life as a Navy SEAL, Covert Operative and Boy Scout from Hell."

    I can relate to the last one. :lol:
    As a newbie to Dungeons & Dragons I'm reading the D&D Players Handbook.

    Which edition? I haven't played in years....

    I'm not the least bit surprised you relate :wink: Absolutely appreciated his raw truth telling accounts, which depicted its realities less the glamourised retells a la select portrayals on the big/small screen.

    One of these days I'll have to add it to my reading list. I think too many people either are afraid to speak up on things for fear of retaliation. Or, they Hollywoodize things simply to try and make money.

    I'm reading El lector de Julio Verne, by Almudena Grandes. It's part of Episodios de una guerra interminable (Episodes of a never-ending war), which is a superb series about how the people who lost the Spanish Civil War managed to survive (and live) during the post-war years and the dictatorship.

    I started a book recommended here but the first few pages convinced me of the horrible meaninglessness of everything

    Next up I’m supposed to be starting Gnomon

    Dead to Her by Sarah Pinborough

    It's slow going and I'm not that into it. I think I've figured out a major "shocker" for later in the book and that's a little disappointing....meh

    Just ordered these from the local, independent bookshop. I've almost finished Ezra Klein's book. Next up is Plain, Honest Men.

    I think my kids and I may have read some of these? Is there a funny word for the road and cars.. something about thunder... I can’t remember.

    And there’s a lot of derision for house kitties I think?

    Thunderpath = road
    Monster = car or truck
    Kittypet = housecat
    Twoleg = humans

    Just began "I Dreamed I was a Very Clean Tramp", Richard Hell's auto-bio.

    Morrissey's auto-bio is next, but I'm not in a reading mood lately, so the library might want it back before I begin... although, they might be closed down soon with the public closures, I'd imagine, so perhaps I can finish both.
