Re:EU chief opens door for Canada to become 'associate member' on Wednesday September 16, 2026 @09:55AM (#49727101)
As a European, I am very happy to see this, especially given what Canada represents and the values (I believe) we broadly share!
Re:How to Read More Books on Monday July 13, 2026 @04:37AM (#48889611)
- I had the exact same thought as you: “No discussion of what books and why.” But while reading your comment, I realized that I am actually fine with that. I really do not want to think critically about why I read books. Over the years, I have come to feel that many of the things I find worthwhile are somewhat self-evidently worthwhile (appreciating art comes to mind). Do you really want to think critically about why you enjoy spending time with people you like? Also, part of the joy of reading, for me, is precisely that it helps me get outside my own head and avoid that kind of critical thinking.

- Regarding "The World of Yesterday", I should say that it was one of the most impressive books I have ever read. I still often remember particular passages and the emotions they evoked. There is also a certain irony in your saying that you cannot relate to it, because part of what makes the book so fascinating is that it describes a time that is chronologically quite close to our own, yet also profoundly different, beautiful, and completely gone. My two cents: please give it another try!

Does adding Spain, Germany, Belgium, Sweden, Austria, Switzerland, Singapore, Qatar, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Israel, etc. change your point?

Everyone talks about Proton, but I've used Tuta.com for years (no vested interest) and it works fine
