If you're looking for an alternative to that sportsball game, I highly recommend reading a book. 💙📚 #booksky #sportsball #SuperBowl

I thought it was beautifully mysterious and strange. Fun fact, I started this book thinking Piranesi was a female character, which I think made the story better. #Piranesi

How to be a critical thinker:

1. Be 10% more skeptical of people you agree with—and 10% more charitable to those you disagree with

2. Find flaws in ideas you like—and strengths in views you dislike

3. Discount sources that peddle one narrative—and learn from those that explore competing ideas

Day 6: The Hunger Games series by Suzanne Collins.

WHY: This series takes me back to 2009, driving to work, and being completely engrossed in the audiobook series. I found the dystopian world to be fascinating.

Yes and I'd add where you "spend" your attention. Those tech bros make $$$ based on your eyeballs on their platform. By looking elsewhere, they don't make money off of us. #resist

Day 4: Animal Farm by George Orwell

Why: I read this to my son when he was in 4th grade, and now we both love to quote from it. It was a great intro to politics.

The image shows the cover of *Animal Farm* by George Orwell. The title is displayed in bold, block letters—"ANIMAL" in red and "FARM" in black. The author's name appears below in smaller black text. The background is dark, with intersecting white lines creating a web-like pattern, giving the cover a stark, minimalist feel.
