I return from the surgery war. Im finally feeling conscious enough to at least post from bed. Recovery is going pretty well I've been able to sit up right and at least be mobile! I'm still on bed rest but I'm not constantly falling asleep from my medication.

I might be a little quiet for a few days. I had surgery this morning and it is painful ngl

It seems like it should be intuitively obvious that in a capitalist society having even the tiniest amount of capital would lead to positive results?

My current audio read while I do cleaning tasks at work: #amreading #booksky💙📚 #nonfiction

Finished reading Fearing The Black Body The Racial Origins of Fat Phobia. And now I officially hate Ralph Waldo Emerson. I had no idea this man was racist af on main for the giggles. 5☆

My current audio read for work tasks since I finished How to Hide an Empire by Daniel Emmerwhar. #booksky💙📚 #diversebooksky #amreading #diversebooksky

I really enjoyed this book, it was a wonderful accompaniment to Braiding Sweetgrass and highly reccomend reading these two books back to back. #booksky💙📚 #nonfiction #diversebooksky

Just finished How to Hide an Empire by Daniel Emmerwhar 4.5☆ if only because it stated "Palestine got its independence by becoming Israel" boo tomato. But I learned a lot about American Colonialism #booksky💙📚 #amreading #nonfiction

Rest In Piss you POS apnews.com/article/dick...
