Review
- the books are good quality
- you get them in an ebook, not pdf format

📚 The Time-Block Plannner by Cal Newport ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Newport’s method is not new, but the planner summarizes it well and provides a good structure for executing it.
The physical product is less fit for purpose (page size, binding, paper), so practicing here and moving elsewhere.

We need more non-hyper news options like these.
Have you been involved in an early reviewer program where:
Would love to hear about it.
Maybe this isn’t really a thing, because books of that caliber don’t need help getting good reviews?

📚 Now Reading: Rhythm of War by Brandon Sanderson.
This is unfortunately not a sequel to Warbreaker, but will hopefully be good anyway.

The recommendation is for several reasons, including: a better fat profile (omega ratio), better micronutrients, and better carb profile (fiber over simple).
📚 Now Reading: Lo-TEK Design by Radical Indigenism by Julia Watson
A song for Columbus Day 🎶
(which should actually be Indigenous Peoples' day)
🎶: Silent Planet - Native Blood
The barren wastes, bearing down on me.1 Cracks in the clouds leave me wondering: Did the oceans dry out and return to the sky, for a privileged perspective of our final goodbye?
Pretend it’s a house of peace while she’s buried underneath. You built your Father’s house over my mother’s grave.2
Bodies - a mass grave collapse the concave floor. These sanctimonious steeples will meet us in the dirt. Because the earth is trembling,3 if only we had eyes to see it shake. Ignorant until we expire.
When the ocean fills our veins and the soil becomes my bones:4 Maybe we’ll fall asleep tonight to the madness in the melody poured out for slaves.
We were dressed in potential now we’re draped in sorrow.
Our race is a bloodstain spattered on a profane political campaign - manifest your destiny. Stripes and stars comprise my prison bars - the cost of liberty.5
Maybe we’ll fall asleep tonight to the madness in the melody poured out for slaves. Maybe this storm is a perfect score for wretched bodies washed ashore, poured out for me.6
The life I loved looking up at me: saplings struck like daggers hemorrhaging streams as the breath of my people return to the ground7 so forests can once more abound.
The suffering cross that overcame,8 the name of Love made concurrent with shame.
This melody - I thought it familiar it sounds like your heartbeat keeping time,9 then you turn and remind me that this pain has a purpose. And maybe we’ll fall asleep tonight.

📚 Finished Reading: The Shadows by Alex North. ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Recommended.
Horror-Thriller with a dreaming angle. I only had the loan for 7 days, and read it quickly in 2.
I first heard Sanctum during Cornerstone Music Festival. They’re a Swedish electro/industrial/experimental group.
I listen to a lot of eclectic music, but theirs is still one of the most strangely-beautiful I’ve ever heard.
Recommend starting with Clarify or Lupus in Fabula
