not the classics (though I love those too), the stuff that was demonized because young women enjoyed it and the stories were emotionally exciting and delightfully implausible
like East Lynne by Ellen Wood

Read this. I found it in one of those little libraries. I know this is a must-read for a lot of people but somehow I never read it. Reading anyone's autobiography is fascinating, and Malcolm X is one of the most fascinating people ever. You do have to put up with many misogynist comments throughout the book, which is tough. It's beautiful and heartbreaking to follow someone so fully dedicated to their purpose in life. It's going back to the little library, hopefully someone else picks it up.

This whole topic is so scary and confusing! Science Versus did an episode about the health implications for different oil types, interviewed advocates on both sides of the issue, did a comprehensive literature review etc. and showed that the studies have not been able to demonstrate anything conclusive about this. It is possible seed oils are harmful in a way that hasn’t been captured yet by science, but the lack of evidence refutes the hypothesis that seed oils are the devil as many have been claiming. We’ll have to see where the science goes but good old olive oil and common sense never fails!
It may sound stupid because only stupid right-wing grifters seem to talk about it and never in any substantive or informative fashion but it’s real… here’s some information to start and at the end it identifies some actionable changes you can make 🧈

Listened to this. Chill and grooving rock album. There's a Rolling Stones Cover and the voice reminds me a bit of Billy Idol...if he was more chill and nineties maybe.
