Maybe do some research about statistical concepts before spouting what sounds good to you. Causation can absolutely 'come' without correlation.

You are a great example of someone not understanding that things are complex so you reach for tabloid explanations because they are comfortable and simple.

Got what I assume is this variant. Can confirm it's nasty and goes on for a long time.

This was unexpected. I'm a vegan Arch Linux user, never heard of any association to be honest.

Dehumanising people makes it easy to hate and persecute them, and to blame them for a bunch of stuff which isn't their fault. It really is a classic move with a rich history.

Overlooked doesn't mean what you think it means.

Is the three musketeers really on par with the count? I've been meaning to read it for months but I always got the sense it would be disappointing.

All of HP Lovecraft's stories.

I liked it until about half way through, it seemed to lose all the intrigue and then there was the weird bit about rape (if I remember correctly) at which point I gave up. Shame because it started well.

Just finished Embassytown by China Mieville. Haven't read anything for ages so took the opportunity to get back into it on a lazy holiday. Highly recommend this book, or any by China, if you enjoy dense sci-fi.

Sound on sound was always well worth a read. That said, I haven't read it in about 20 years and don't know if it's even still going.
