  Abridgment of The Oqual Cycle:...

  Today, almost every nation is teetering on the brink of a societal meltdown as it finds itself in the midst of a sociopolitical upheaval, the like of which has not hitherto been witnessed in our lifetime. 
  Yet, hardly anyone realizes that like a winter that returns every year, such a concerted turmoil across the globe is also periodic due to what I have dubbed the "oqual cycle". 
  On the basis of scientific reasoning and mathematical modeling of history over the past 600 years, the oqual cycle posits that human civilization seemingly undergoes a sweeping global reset once every 84 years on average in order to purge itself of a plethora of wrongdoings from the societal ills through excesses and imbalances to transgressions amassed over that multidecadal period. 
  Unfortunately, there is no free music as one must pay the piper. 
  Indeed, such a societal reboot is typically accomplished through a global conflict with the potential to not only wreak havoc but also strike fear into the hearts and minds of people on an apocalyptic scale so that they can put their sociopolitical differences aside and come together for the common good of the world at large. 
  The oqual cycle therefore lends human society a subtle albeit deadly mechanism to break ties with its dysfunctional past in order to begin anew rather than being held hostage from moving forward under its own weight, or even worse, continue down the rabbit hole in perpetuity with the potential for self-destruction. 
  Taken together, Abridgment of The Oqual Cycle is a must-read for everyone in that it will not only transform your worldview but it will also become your best companion to guide you as you navigate the dire fallout from the ongoing sociopolitical upheaval over the next decade or so and when you can expect to see everything around you to be hunky-dory once again like the good old days from the second half of 20th century.

  Fyodor Dostoevsky became the writer best known for his treatment of the big questions of ethics, religion, and philosophy. 
   
   
   
  In this Very Short Introduction, Deborah Martinsen explores Dostoevsky's tumultuous life story: his political imprisonment and narrow escape from execution, his Siberian exile, his gambling addiction, his romantic marriage, and his literary success. Martinsen also delves into his major works—Notes from Underground, Crime and Punishment, The Idiot, Demons, The Brothers Karamazov, The Diary of a Writer, and more. Each chapter analyzes a key theme or aspect of Dostoevsky's writing that showcases his profound insights into human nature and society: doubling, freedom, shame, social justice, scandal, aesthetics, ethics, faith, and the eternal questions. Martinsen also demonstrates how Dostoevsky's novels remain relevant today as they address pressing questions about freedom, morality, and meaning in a complex world.

  An MDLG and ABDL themed love story for the age play fetishist. 
  Please note: This book contains content only appropriate for individuals interested in the MDLG subgroup of BDSM. It includes kink related themes, psychological power-play both sexual and non-sexual, sub training in diaper wetting, punishment by bondage, spankings, butt plug, and genital teasing. 
  The story is a work of fiction, and although based on multiple personal experiences, Tina Moore does not assume to speak for the entire community. She also believes that the kink is as broad and diverse as the consenting adults who engage in it, and thus there is not a ‘correct’ way to be a consenting adult involved in age play and/or regression. 
  Tina Moore would like to thank all her loyal, supportive, and loving fans. She wishes you every happiness and success and hopes that you stay safe, calm, and healthy. 
  Leila knew that life could be better, but she had no idea it could be this good! With her 20year high school reunion looming, Leila discovers the power of personal reflection and evolving into the person she wishes to become. As her younger Mommy trains her, Leila enjoys the freedom to be herself, to learn what real love feels like and how to finally be at peace with who she is as a person, a little and a woman. 
  If you are looking for a loving and romantic MDLG story…

  A vivid, wild ride through a century of Mafia lore, this book tells stories of organized crime rings that have settled in Florida and made the state their base of operations for bootlegging, gambling, extortion, money laundering, and drug running. 
   
   
   
  Featuring Al Capone and crime rings in Miami and South Florida, the Trafficante family in Tampa, Harlan Blackburn and his gambling empire in Orlando, and many more individuals both infamous and little known, this book explains how and why mob bosses from northern states came to Florida in the early 1900s—they saw the state as a respite from cold weather and a good place to evade law enforcement. 
   
   
   
  Doug Kelly offers never-before-told information from newly released files, interviews with retired police and FBI agents, and his own career as a security consultant during the Cocaine Cowboys era. He also defines roles within Mafia families, discusses how changes in policing have impacted the patterns of criminal organizations, and talks about what distinguishes the Mafia from other groups. 
   
   
   
  Sunshine State Mafia will surprise listeners with its insights into the influence of organized crime in the history of the state's small towns and cities.

  Self-Justification and Ego...

  William Rands

  This book bundle has two books in it. The topics are as follows: 
  - The Self-Serving Bias: At its core, the self-serving bias serves to protect and enhance self-esteem. By crediting successes to internal factors, individuals reinforce their belief in their own competence and abilities. This, in turn, boosts confidence and motivates continued effort. On the flip side, by attributing failures to external, uncontrollable factors such as bad luck, difficult circumstances, or the actions of others, individuals avoid the negative emotional consequences of failure. This creates a shield that protects one’s self-image, allowing a person to maintain a positive outlook even when things go wrong. 
  - The Slippery Slope Fallacy: Fallacies are errors in reasoning that undermine the logical validity of an argument. They often appear persuasive on the surface, yet, when examined closely, they reveal flaws that can mislead individuals or entire groups. In an increasingly complex world, recognizing these logical fallacies is crucial for navigating discussions, making informed decisions, and engaging in rational debate. The ability to identify fallacious reasoning helps individuals critically evaluate arguments and avoid being swayed by flawed logic. Among the various types of fallacies, the Slippery Slope fallacy is one of the most prevalent. It involves the assumption that a particular action will inevitably lead to extreme and undesirable consequences, often without sufficient evidence to support such a claim. This form of argument relies heavily on fear and exaggeration, suggesting that even a small step in a certain direction will set off a chain of events leading to catastrophic results. The Slippery Slope fallacy is commonly used in political, legal, and social debates, where the consequences of a decision or policy are often portrayed as extreme and far-reaching.
