OP too busy to reply reading and finding so much "woke stuff" as he does.

I only managed to finish one book for this week.
Heads Up Philosophy
By DK?
So I don't feel that fulfilled. Though I'm half-way through this book which is interesting:
Heads Up Philosophy
By DK?
This book is pretty much identical almost to the other Philosophy book by DK- 'Philosophy: a visual encyclopedia'.

By Mark Milke
"The Great Depression was, contrary to popular myth, not created by the 1929 stock market crash, as economies had endured such crashes before and since without collapsing into a depression. The response of governments had much to do with the subsequent downturn in the economy, including ill-advised tariffs on other countries' goods for starters, and other disastrous but politically popular policy throughout the 1930s in the United States."
Albert Camus
A Very Short Introduction
By Oliver Gloag
(Audiobook)
This one was about 4 hours long. I guess it was ok but nothing much appeals to me about Camus in philosophy. I never thought he was much of one, and he himself never liked to refer to himself as one either IIRC. I am guessing that part of the reason he was so famous in France was due to his novels, or we'd probably not even know his name right now. Before I lay any final judgement though, I will have to at least read The Myth of Sysyphus.
Bitcoin Widow
Love, Betrayal and the Missing Millions
By Jennifer Robertson
Well, well, well. Here it finally is, the wife's version of dead CEO of Quadriga exchange. The largest crypto exchange in Canada at the time, and also surrounded in mystery and fraud on an epic scale. It's POSSIBLE Jennifer could be totally innocent in all this, but I am not going to bank 100% on that. I wish there were more details in here, such as the supposed incident that wiped out so much Ethereum by sending it to an improper address, etc. Oh well, someone else will have to write a more technical book on this case someday.
Thanks! Looks like you read a lot. Where can I find these books? No pdfs please!
I'm going to end my reading a bit early for this week, since tomorrow I have class all day. But I did just finish this book since yesterday evening. A great read for Canadians unless they are already a tax-pro:
The Grumpy Accountant: One Fed-Up Tax Pro's Practical Plan to Fix Canada's Senselessly Complicated Tax System

I found this incredibly deep book looking into Ordinary Language Philosophy and Hacker.
Very tough going but so unique and it is actually a critique of modern neuroscience.
