Not necessarily a psychology book but Wretched of the Earth by Frantz Fanon does go into a psychoanalysis of the effects colonization has on people and nations as a whole.

I definitely agree with you but also think that while Elden Ring can be difficult to learn, it’s just like any other skill or hobby where you put a bit of time and effort and you can beat it no problem (a person’s goldfish beat some bosses). The game also has ways to make it easier by summoning other players or summoning NPCs to help you. Don’t get me wrong though, there should be more accessibility options to help people.

Damn, that sucks. I literally just finished the Mistborn trilogy on Friday and it has become one of my favorite series. I haven’t had a series I enjoyed like that in like a decade or so. Do you by any chance have links to comments he’s made about Zionism or anything like that?

This could be the whole thread right here. Great book that goes very in depth and really opened my eyes years ago when I read it.

You’re not wrong at all but there’s also the chance your kids turn out like Kamala Harris and Pete Buttigieg (both their fathers were/are Marxists).

Yeah, France is trying to expand voting rights to recent settlers because the indigenous community is getting closer and closer to passing a vote for independence. It’s a desperate attempt to stop it. Fuck France

Send to device should be sending it to the memory of your Kindle. I have a Kobo and that’s how it is for me at least and I don’t think it’d be that different for Kindles from what I understand.

Can’t help with Colombia specifically but on the wider topic of Latin America I highly recommend “Open Veins of Latin America”.

I hate finding cockroaches in my home but I’ve definitely found an appreciation for them in general. They’re pretty important to the world’s ecosystem.

Tier lists originated in video game culture pretty much. It’s a way to try to subjectively rank things within a game by its viability. The s tier thing comes from Japan I believe, where in some academic cases they give an S grade for excellent performance. In the context of tier lists the reason there might be a S+ tier is because some characters might be really really good and are in S tier but some characters are just way better than everyone else and are in a league of their own.
