Sad events have rocked our world lately: terrorism in France, Donald Trump being a thing in the United States, a never-ending rash of murders in Israel, racist shootings in the United States.

So via someone at work, I have now seen the most fucked-up book ever. It's called the Atlas of Creation by Harun Yahya. It basically argues a bunch of Creationist bullcrap, plus a form of Idealism that the author himself compares to The Matrix, and then ending up concluding, "Therefore Allah."

She's miserable, overworked, under-respected, and worried she'll have to quit her job to avoid getting a deadly disease she's already had once. Because hey, why not almost die a second time, just because you're told to casually disregard the danger!?

This one could very likely use some prereading, since it needs to work to maintain coherence with earlier chapters. Anyone out there?

Choice quotes so far:

“You actually got me tickets to the Sapphire Shores concert in Manehattan this coming weekend!”

Ok, now it was time to just let go.

“Yeeeeeeeaaaah!” her voice rang out, pouring in just a tinge of electric guitar. “And it’s two tickets, so we can go together!”

I really need a computer with nonbroken video hardware for watching cartoons on.

Also, Golden Oak Library? Not Books and Branches? HOW DARE YOU CONTRADICT MY FANON!
