"Ameisen" steht in der #Bücherwabe für die These von Bayo Akomolafe, dass wir hinsichtlich der Denkwege, die unsere Lebens- und Wirtschaftsform bestimmen, in einer tödlichen Logik gefangen sind, wie Ameisen in einer #Ameisenmühle: Ameisen folgen den Duftspuren ihrer Vorgänger und laufen im Kreis bis sie sterben.

Seit November ist unser Buchladen ganz schön gewachsen. Deswegen müssen wir heute ein paar Schränke neu arrangieren. Gar nicht so einfach für uns Quereinsteiger. 😅 Seht ihr Bücher die Euch besonders gefallen haben, oder die ihr unbedingt noch lesen wollt. Gibt es Bücher die wir unbedingt noch dahaben sollten?
Liebe Grüße aus #chemnitz

"Science fiction writer Octavia Butler wrote in her 1993 novel 'Parable of the Sower' that Feb. 1, 2025, would be a time of fires, violence, racism, addiction, climate change, social inequality and an authoritarian 'President Donner.'
"That day is today."

“Rats fed a calorie restricted diet lived longer and were healthier than those allowed to eat without limit. During caloric restriction or CR, an animals is fed 30 to 50% fewer calories than it would consume if it ate as much as it liked ad libitum while making sure that it consumes enough essential nutrients to not become malnourished. In rodents and other species, animals on CR live 20 to 50% longer as judge by both average lifespan and maximum lifespan. Moreover, they appeared to have delayed the onset of several diseases of aging, including diabetes, cardiovascular disease, cognitive decline, and cancer.”
An excerpt from the book, “Why We Die” by Venki Ramakrishnan
I’m just saying… from Nikki on NetGalley and Goodreads.

"That very day, I left the orphanage. I packed a knapsack with my clothes. I slid the coins they'd given me into a soft pocket. I looked out at a rusty gate, which was topped with tree branches, and one looked like a wolf's wig."

(This is the start of my reading notes thread for this book.)
Currently reading Agatha Christie's "The Murder on the Links" which I downloaded free of charge thanks to @gutenberg_org
A top-notch book. Hercule Poirot mysteries are such a joy. Thoroughly enjoying it. Get your copy at:

A young woman gets caught up in magical machinations and is turned old & fabulously crotchety. Great characters and vibe but I lost track of the plot a bit (disclaimer: listened to this as a sleep story), and wasn't really into the romantic ending.

I am downright delighted to announce that my latest book, YOU DESERVE A TECH UNION, has a brand new look. I really love it, and I hope you do too.
Here’s a look at what’s changed and—maybe more importantly—what’s stayed the same:

Hallo troet.cafe, ich bin #neuhier, umgezogen von mastodon.social. Im fediverse bin ich jetzt schon seit fast 3 Jahren.

Ich bin Mitte 30, weiblich (cishet) habe Migrationshintergrund und lebe im Ländle.

finished reading The Collected Schizophrenias: Essays 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑
Essays on the author's experience of schizophrenia (along with bipolar, PTSD & chronic Lyme!) in the US. Fascinating & unsettling view into psychiatric hospitals, mental health 'support' in Ivy League colleges, and what the hell a psychotic break feels like. Blimey.

"Little Brother" von Cory Doctorow ( @pluralistic ) handelt davon, wie schnell die eigene Heimat zum Feindstaat werden kann, wenn die Freiheit der Sicherheit untergeordnet wird. Und davon wie schnell die Technik, die uns ermächtigt und vernetzt, zum Mittel der Überwachung und Unterdrückung werden kann. Dabei macht Doctorow Mut mit den Mitteln der Technik für die Demokratie zu kämpfen. #bücherwabe #chemnitz #bücher #literatur #lesen #books #literature #bookstodon #scifi #politik #politics
Publishing looks glossy from the outside. Inside? It’s built on unpaid labour.
My first book is out this year.
Here’s what I actually got paid, what my contract says, & why most authors can’t afford to do this twice.

Careless People is a complicated book: the author is complicit in the activities she describes, which no amount of ironic detachment or claims of trying to change the system from the inside can hide. #bookstodon
