A star cluster is shown inside a large nebula of many-coloured gas and dust. The material forms dark ridges and peaks of gas and dust surrounding the cluster, lit on the inner side, while layers of diffuse, translucent clouds blanket over them. Around and within the gas, a huge number of distant galaxies can be seen, some quite large, as well as a few stars nearer to us which are very large and bright.

Mountain-like structures of gas and dust jut upwards into space. Mostly brown with glowing orange regions, these structures narrow as they grow taller, with jets of gas seen at their tips. The nebulous background of space glows in shades of blue and violet, with a few pink stars scattered throughout.

it’s such a beautiful thing that we as humans can see things like this in space thanks to machines we made on earth

What if we get off everything and just start reading?

Book pages should be numbered backwards so we’re always counting down how many pages we have left

I love a floppy book. The pages stay where they are, no spines get cracked and it sits comfortably in your hand.

There, that’s my great insight shared for this week.

As you were.

We need to get back to reading and critical thinking Because 2024 feels different from 2016.

Feels like I'm just posting to the void since I'm just getting started here, but why not. I write a weekly newsletter, and this week I write about how far away from reading and critical thinking we’ve come. It's lacking in our education, COVID learning loss, social media attention spans, all of it.

I regret to inform you that I do sometimes judge a book by its cover.

If anyone’s looking for alternatives to GoodReads, I highly recommend StoryGraph. It’s owned by a black woman, and the platform is so much more accessible and easy to use.
