I’ve got a lot of new reviews coming out as there were none the last two weeks, oops.
- I finally finished “Six easy pieces” by Richard Feynman
- A brilliant short story “The ones who walk away from Omelas” by Ursula K. Le Guin, one of the authors that I know I would love the writing of if I just read more from them. A mini review will be out shortly!
- In addition there’s a review of “Women in science” by Rachel Ignotofsky coming out, where the inspiration of quote of the week came from.

Three things on my mind:
- I’m just going to post three very varied youtube videos here because I’ve been sick a week and then studying too much the other week to make up for it. My brain feels empty and chaotic at once. Fun. I did preorder “The truth about keeping secrets” by Savannah Brown just before watching Ariel Bisset’s video on what preorders actually mean.
I loved the chocolate animation video, so cool! Thanks for sharing 😁
