    Blind Sight and its sequel Echopraxia are probably the two best science fiction novels I've read in the last fifteen years.

    If there's nothing wrong with having to show an ID to buy a gun, there's nothing wrong with having to show an ID to vote.

    For legal reasons, that's a joke.

    Just started reading Trigger Warning by Liam W. Johnstone with J.A. Johnstone.

    The writers seem like they'd fit into this site very well.

    Finished The Righteous Mind: Why Good People Are Divided by Politics and Religion by Jonathan Haidt and working on iGen: The Smartphone Generation by Jean Twenge. Next book on the list is The Coddling of the American Mind: How Good Intentions and Bad Ideas Are Setting Up a Generation for Failure also by Jonathan Haidt.

    I am still trying to understand how and why my mindset is so far from the mindset of so many people who are moving our country today. I don't know if understanding will help but trying to understand something is generally where I start any process.

    Jonathan Haidt was just on Joe Rogan and it's a good podcast.

    Just got a box of pre-owned paperback books so I am reading Patterson's "Private" series. Not bad, short chapters so kind of keeps you reading.

    Some continuing installments in different series (new S.M. Stirling and Peter F. Hamilton stuff), and started out reading "The Culture" novels by Ian Banks. Still on the library waiting list for the latest "Honorverse" installment.
