Played "the Fire Rises" mod of HOI4 for a whole day. It's absolutely funny and thought-provoking to review the past four years' news as today's history. Can't believe how much shit happened in this world since 2020.

First novel I read entirely in English. Celeste Ng’s writing is sensitive, perceptive, and strikingly accurate in capturing the dynamics of a Chinese family ❤️ Such a beautiful, though tragic, story that I probably won't be able to stop thinking about it for a while.

A great and clear video on German Revolution and shows how counter-revolutionary a "left" org (namely the SPD, German Social Democrats) can be.

Aspiring to heroic goals sacrifices we dare make.
Creating a brightnew world, stars, moon and sun will order changed.

　　“Order prevails in Berlin!” You foolish lackeys! Your “order” is built on sand. Tomorrow the revolution will “rise up again, clashing its weapons,” and to your horror it will proclaim with trumpets blazing:

　　I was, I am, I shall be!

(Rosa Luxemburg)

" ... And in the darkness I smile at life, as if I were the possessor of charm which would enable me to transform all that is evil and tragical into serenity and happiness. But when I search my mind for the cause of this joy, I find there is no cause, and can only laugh at myself.”
