This book would be tremendously improved if it engaged with the idea of capitalism even a little bit

Let’s see what this book has to say about AI writing…

The modern reader cannot help but be distracted by the fatphobia that infects the root of this novel. If that can be seen past, the book stands as a remarkable story about the inevitable courses of life, told through the stories of two sisters who could not be more different, but who nevertheless end up the same.

This didn’t take very long (it’s a small 50 pages), but damn are these essays still on point.

I guess this is a thing I should read eventually, so why not now?

On to #87 on the Modern Library list, this one I was lucky to find at a local used bookseller, as the book is awaiting further printing in the US, evidently.

Another techno-true crime thriller, this one is a fascinating and illuminating read for anyone interested in privacy and digital safety.

“So steht es um die Ästhetisierung der Politik, welche det Faschismus betreibt. Der Kommunismus antwortet ihm mit der Politisierung der Kunst.”

Benjamin hätte so viel zu KI zu sagen gehabt.

I stand by my claim that Magnus Hirschfeld should be seen by today’s standards as a messy bitch, at best.

Ich muss immer mein Deutsch verbessern

Time to jump into more queer German history

Better than expected, I’m going to reach out of this book

I’m reading this to see if it’s worth recommending. I’ll be happy to learn something new, however.
