Tell me your entire idea of what Russia is is built out of cold war propaganda without telling me.

Modern Russia has lots of problems but lack of die hard committed nationalists is not one of them.

Better bug paste and pods than being homeless or starving imo. Kinda sad that I find that to be an optimistic outcome, but this is cspam so at least I'm not alone

When a tree grows, it is soft and pliable. But when it's dry and hard, it dies.

Hardness and strength are death's companions. Flexibility and softness are the embodiment of life.

That which has become hard shall not triumph.

i was about to post that at least puerile young adult novels are better than tv and marvel movies but then i remembered how many brains have been broken by harry potter :(

Look, so few people read books any more that I don't care if grown adults are reading Lord Dragonicus and the Sword of Fancy, I'm just glad they're reading a goddamn book. I had a conversation with a coworker in his 50s a few months ago where I asked what was the last book he read, and he said he wasn't sure because it was something in high school. :smith:

I read Discworld when I was a young adult and these days I'll still re read them in times of stress because I find them comforting and familiar.

There's specifically a YA discworld series (Tiffany Aching) and it's better than any other YA thing I've read. You can see Pratchett writing his own death from Alzheimer's into it :smith:

Terry himself said that the only differences between his normal books and his "young adult" books were that the protagonists were younger, and that the YA books were darker.

They're the perfect audiobook for me at night (and it's all on youtube) because I know the stories so it doesn't matter if I fall asleep. Also the audiobooks are excellent.

The original art they're using there is fanart of Violet Evergarden, a series about a soldier who lost her arms and was horrifically traumatized by war trying to reintegrate into society and learn how to make emotional connections with people.
