    I just finished Unmasking Autism and am gonna let my brain finish digesting it for a couple days.

    I wanna try and finish a splatterpunk novel called Cows by Mathew Stokoe. I don't recommend it if you get grossed out by gore and bodily fluids and all the stuff in between. This book has all the trigger warnings. But somehow I deeneath, I'm getting a weird but somewhat comforting view of our world and just how hopeless it is. What the story is about is a nice sort of slice of life prose, but his writing is very discriptive and disgusting.

    I am planning on finishing Jesus and John Wayne. It's a history of the church in the US, how it became so misogynistic and abusive and how it weaslef it's way into modern political discourse.

    I also wanna try and get a chunk of Killing Hope knocked out but that book is straight up depressing.

    After all that I'm gonna do a dive into some theory adjacent texts regarding LGBTQ+ and race.
