This is what I like about fedi, a concern / question is raised, and rather than trying to fob people off, you get a response such as this, that explains the issue and suggest possible solutions.
"Though much is taken, much abides; and though we are not now that strength which in old days moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are -- our equal temper of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will to strive, to seek, to find and not to yield." -- Ulysses

I decided that these merry days leading to Christmas, when we're infused with positive sentiments and hope for humanity, are as good as any other to read… #Hitler's _Mein Kampf_.
😲
Not really! In fact, I'm a bit embarrassed to leave my e-book reader lying around so that others can see what I'm reading… But my Theory of Reading actually supports and encourages reading _anything_ that has been very influential (for good or for ill) regardless of its literary merits, its veracity, its applicability today, or its moral qualities.
Not to put them all necessarily in the same bucket, but I have read _The Iliad_, _The Odyssey_, _The Communist Manifesto_ and _Atlas Shrugged_ — and I would read _The Bible_ and _The Quran_ too: all of them #books that are ( in a way or another) wrong, false, corrosive, harmful, evil, racist, sexist, pro-violence, or pro-war — or even all of those things at the same time!
Granted: #MeinKampf may well be the wrongest among the wrong books… And in a way, that contributes to making it “useful” as a reading.

Quote from The Witcher Season 2 (no plot revealed)
Geralt: How's your room?
Ciri: It has rats
Geralt: Thats a good sign, it means its one of the warm ones.

Healthy heart, for what? To live longer? On fruit and veggies? Can you even call that being alive? If I were on a diet of fruit and veggies the last thing I'd want is to live longer :)

Do assassins eat special diets to ensure they don't have to fart when they are sneaking up on someone?
Thanks for doing me the favor

Thinking about this some more, I suspect it is because colchicine doesnt cause intrachromosome mutation but instead induces tetraploidy, a very specific type of mutation. I wonder if children born with tetraploidy disease have a decreased risk of cancer.

fact of the day: Santa's reindeer Donner and Blitzen are also the German words for thunder and lightening.

It's a #Fediverse alternative to #Reddit, with a more #HackerNews-type approach to things. It doesn't have a word filter like #Lemmy does, and federates far better too.

I've been leaving my hotel room door open so the waiter can come into my room without me getting up to bring me food. I hear meowing and apparently i made a new friend, this friendly little fellow was next to my bed. Startled me half to death but i think we are besties now. After feeding him he is just staying in the room guarding the door to keep me safe.
I hope he will come give me some cuddles.
