"Sex during a virus pandemic" by Dr. I.M. Ajerk

It points out 3 easy steps to get fucked......

1. Don't wear a face mask when out in public.
2. Don't wash your hands.
3. Don't adhere to the 2 meter separation.

On vacation during this Pandemic I read Ardennes 1944: The Battle of the Bulge by Anthony Beevor… total war, war is hell> a Pandemic not so bad. After that book I picked up The Right Stuff by Tom Wolfe for something a little lighter.

Who We Are and How We Got Here. Ancient DNA and the new science of the human past by David Reich.

Interesting book on the science of DNA. Talks about the new tests developed (in the last 25-30 years) for DNA. The Comparison of modern humans to past humans using new DNA tests. Goes into migration of ancient humans, language connections with the basis of using ancient DNA found in skeletons in various part of the world to see where human population originated from.

Oath of Fealty by Larry Niven.

Need a break from my usual rotation of non-fiction.

Interesting premise yet sorta boring after a while.

For a sex work related book I enjoyed "My name is Jennie" by Jennie Ketcham

She was formerly Penny Flame and I came to the book through watching Sex Rehab with Dr Drew.

Incredible story and not too preachy

The Anarchy: The East India Company, Corporate Violence, and the Pillage of an Empire.
William Dalrymple

The March of Folly: From Troy to Vietnam.
Barbara Tuchman

Bad, foolish, and counterproductive behavior by governments and corporations. Things haven't improved much since 1200 B.C.

Just finished "Lost Girls" - About the unsolved, possible serial killings of 10 prostitutes in New York. Also recently made into an excrutiatingly bad Netflix movie.

Alan Watts can always take complex ideas and reduce them to their essence. I love his writing so much. A friend loaned this to me at the beginning of the pandemic and there’s wisdom there for certain. It was written in the early 1950’s but is relevant now as ever.

I’ll also add that I wrote a book during the three months of isolation. I’ve long thought I had one but time hadn’t allowed the space. It was very easy once I got started, my unconscious mind actually knew everything and I even wrote in my sleep many times. After it was done, I realized it was the story of my life, including childhood trauma and overcoming that through imagination and the arts. That was a major shocker. I’m adapting the book into a modern musical/opera and hiring for lots of positions so if the theatre interests you, if you’re a dancer, if you have crew experience, or if you just want to lend a hand send me a PM. I’ll make a proper help wanted post soon.

Yes alot of very successful business men read that book. So if you are a business partner of someone who read it, beware!!!

Still reading same book. Although lately I ve been going through my epubs and seeing what to read later. The only thing that will make an epub better is colour and to be able to expand pictures.
