Just remember why I don't read nonfiction more often. This shit is depressing. And there's no end to it. Just because the book is over doesn't mean the problems will then go away.

Yes. This is why I don't read these kind of non-fiction books. Usually.

I used to steer clear of them, but now have to read them for work. It's tough, so I'm squeezing in some light fiction to break up the despair.
You know what's unironically good at breaking up despair? Anne Bishop's writing. 😂
Abed is absolutely right. It is all of the above and maybe a little more (but not the good kind of more).
We are living in the darkest timeline. 🙈
We are indeed. It's like an alternate reality in which all the headlines from the Onion are real.
