Readings:

Still the same books as last week. I don't think it was a good idea to start 3 books at once, I am probably going to focus of Bands of Mourning, which has become really interesting. Still have about 1/3rd of the book to go though.

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

absolutely agree!

as a somewhat casual reader about early human history, I was surprised about how much of "common prehistory lore" is actually history written through a very thick Victorian lens.

    The "we're all animals in a pit" version? :)

    The first seed of the realization of the opposite of that came with Kropotkin, but Graeber backing that up scientifically with this was very exciting at the time. Still is, but I sure wish I could read this book for the first time again.
