I don't know who needs to hear this, but you don't need to justify your reading preferences and choices to anyone. Audiobooks count as reading. Also, you don't have to finish books you don't enjoy. Don't read to impress, read for yourself. Life's too short, love yourself, ok?

I just found out that around 20% of the neanderthal genome still exists today in living people!!

No individual person has more than 3 or 4% but we don't all have the same bits. If you add up all the bits we've found, about a fifth of the Neanderthal genome is still present on earth today.

Anyone who puts their faith in getting just 4 GOP Senators to put the best interests of the country ahead of the chance to avoid conflict with Trump & MAGA has never seen video of Josh Hawley running for his life in the Capitol or Lindsey being hunted like prey in the DC airport.
