  Autism – that’s being able to count matches really fast and knowing that 7 August 1984 was a Tuesday, right? Well, no. In this book, Bianca Toeps explains in great detail what life is like when you’re autistic.She does this by looking at what science says about autism (and why some theories can go straight in the bin), but also by telling her own story and interviewing other autistics. Bianca talks in a refreshing and sometimes hilarious way about different situations autistic people encounter in daily life. She has some useful tips for non-autistic people too: what you should do if someone prefers not to look you in the eye, why it is sometimes better to communicate by email, and, most important of all, why it is not a compliment if you say: “But you don’t look autistic at all!”

  From fake news to conspiracy theories, from inflammatory memes to misleading headlines, misinformation has swiftly become the defining problem of our era. The crisis threatens the integrity of our democracies, our ability to cultivate trusting relationships, even our physical and psychological well-being—yet most attempts to combat it have proven insufficient.With remarkable clarity, Sander van der Linden explains why our brains are so vulnerable to misinformation. Like a virus, misinformation infects our minds, exploiting shortcuts in how we see and process information to alter our beliefs, modify our memories, and replicate at astonishing rates. Once the virus takes hold, it's very hard to cure.But we aren't helpless. As van der Linden shows based on award-winning original research, we can cultivate immunity through the innovative science of "prebunking": inoculating people against false information by preemptively exposing them to a weakened dose, thus empowering them to identify and fend off its manipulative tactics. Deconstructing the characteristic techniques of conspiracies and misinformation, van der Linden gives listeners practical tools to defend themselves and others against nefarious persuasion—whether at scale or around their own dinner table.

  Have you ever wondered why you are into BDSM? Why there tend to be more people of the submissive persuasion than those of the dominant persuasion? Why do the maledom dynamic (male dominating female) and femdom dynamic (female dominating male) tend to differ from each other?
  ''BDSM Theories and Observations'' proposes reasoned answers and explanations to these questions. Taking an inner look at those who are kinky, without assuming it's who you are as a person. "BDSM Theories and Observations" suggests the role of submissive or dominant can be an actively chosen preference, looking at the underlying reasons why.
  This is not an erotic book or a "how-to be kinky", but is for those who are interested in BDSM as a sexual taste, seeking potential avenues to learn more about themselves. The information within, is open to acceptance by the reader if seen as logical, and if so, could help some understand themselves a bit more or give an interesting new angle, perhaps even alleviate some anxiety.

  SUPER MARIO BROS 
  THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA AND CURIOUS FACTS COLLECTION 
    
  CREATED BY TRIVIA HUB 
    
  Super Mario Bros, a 1985 platformer for the NES, is a cornerstone of video game history. It stars Mario and Luigi in a quest to rescue Princess Toadstool from Bowser. The game features side-scrolling levels with enemies and power-ups like the Super Mushroom, Fire Flower, and Starman. Its level design is considered a tutorial for platform gameplay. It was a key factor in the video game industry revival after the 1983 crash and popularized the side-scrolling platform genre. The game's music, composed by Koji Kondo, is also highly regarded. Super Mario Bros. has had numerous re-releases and remakes. It has also been adapted to other media including anime, live-action film, and pinball. 
    
  CURIOUS FACT SAMPLES: 
    
  Super Mario Bros. was designed by Shigeru Miyamoto and Takashi Tezuka, who drew from their experiences working on previous games like Devil World and Excitebike. The game was intended to be a culmination of the Famicom team's three years of experience in game mechanics and programming. 
    
  The first level of Super Mario Bros., World 1-1, was designed as a tutorial to teach players the mechanics of platform gameplay. It introduces in-game hazards through repetition and escalation, allowing players to gradually understand the game. 
    
  The game's music, composed by Koji Kondo, was created to not only be catchy but to also enhance the emotional and physical experience of the player. The music was coordinated with the onscreen animations, which created a sense of greater immersion.
