    Currently I got:

    • Bhikkhu Bodhi - The buddha’s teaching as it is.
      • I’m getting back into Buddhism more, and this is probably the most comprehensive intro to therevada buddhism.
    • Wendy S Painting - Aberration in the heartland of the real
      • About Timothy Mcveigh and the oklahoma city bombing. Suggested by a comrade on here a few days ago, its really entertaining so far. Don’t wanna ruin too much but essentially its similar to the JFK assassination. It was a failed sting operation, and a lot of people involved in the bombing were touts / fed informants, and the FBI sold a “lone wolf” story to the public to protect their informants and cover up their fuckup.
    • Mary Shelley - Frankenstein
      • Love me some gothic horror, and this is the best one of all time.

      People think the federal agent girlfriend thing is a meme, just imagine being offered meth-Gatorade and gay sex by Timothy McVeigh.

      (To clarify this: it actually happened. Not just a vulgar joke.)
