I finished The Plant Thieves by Prudence Gibson last week, it was really enjoyable! It's an arty-historical collection of stories based around the National Herbarium of New South Wales.

Now I can return the book to the library and finally get my borrowing rights back, ahaha... thinking of reading "She and Her Pretty Friend" by Danielle Scrimshaw next.

Thank you @Gizmodo for putting A SECOND CHANCE FOR YESTERDAY on your summer reading list! https://gizmodo.com/70-new-books-list-august-sci-fi-fantasy-horror-authors-1850604276 #sff #scifi #ReadingList #reading #ReadingCommunity

What’s everyone #reading in August? I’m pretty sure I’m starting with some Virginia Woolf (To the Lighthouse) followed by China, A History by John Keay. I would like to brush up on my understanding of China and Chinese history. Maybe then I’ll read Chinese poetry in the fall.

Time keeps rolling forward …

I find myself often forgetting that i have a bunch of things ready to read in my Read Later list. I already made shortcut on my Home Screen that pulls up a random article and I still don’t do it often. How do other people do this?

Finally finished reading Because Internet by @gretchenmcc - it was so entertaining, especially as an Old Internet Person! Will definitely be getting a copy for the budding linguist in our family.

Next up is The Plant Thieves by Prudence Gibson, which I'm pretty sure J and his mum will end up reading too. Loving it so far.

Very excited to begin a new chapter and to revive #phdreadingoftheday (mostly from prep for my PhD qualifying exams and proposal) with #postdocReadings!

Starting with Decolonizing design: a cultural justice guidebook

Doesn't hurt to enjoy a cold beer on a patio while doing so.

Oh would you look at that, my new book INSOLVENT is in amazing company on this #readinglist for new grad #students in #science and #technology (curated "to infuse deeper meaning into your work") with some classics like Value Sensitive Design, recent books like Human Centered Data Science (hi @michael) and with "More Than a Glitch" which I have on my summer reading list too. @academicchatter https://mitpress.mit.edu/books-for-the-budding-new-grad-computer-science-and-technology/

What "disruptive" book similar to The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck by Mark Manson can you recommend? I use the term disruptive because said book is very different from the typical #SelfHelp books I've read. 😂

Ray Bradbury, man. Does he always have to be so right about us?

I needed some #scifi in my mental universe but somehow the news keeps creeping in.

I libri di Barbero hanno un equilibrio straordinario tra divulgazione e profondità. Carlo Magno era un personaggio che conoscevo poco. Sto risalendo il Medio Evo dai Normanni, via Carlo Magno e ora sto rileggendo Gibbon.
C'è da domandarsi cosa sarebbe successo se…

#ReadingList La storia dei Normanni nel Sud è un’avventura affascinante e incredibile. Da una piccola contea in Normandia al dominio del Sud. Come è potuto accadere? Rileggere Norwich dopo essere stato in Sicilia ha tutto un altro sapore.

In advance of Mother's Day, Claire Hodgdon brings us eight thoughtful reads for those who have lost their moms. "But there is another face, sometimes. I recognize other 'dead mom kids' almost instantly. They don’t pity — they laugh. They raise their hand for a high five. They respond with, 'Mine too!' and my whole body relaxes."

"Twenty years ago, when I was 10, my mom died of colon cancer. That’s how I like to tell people: as quickly as possible. I say it before I know them. I say it as fast as I can, usually shoving a second topic into the same sentence. My mom died when I was 10 — what have you been reading lately?" —Claire Hodgdon on navigating life after losing her mom at a young age.
