  Alien Gods

  Before time was recorded by mankind there were the ancient gods of Mesopotamia. Before civilization emerged, before Empires grew, they came and created a hybrid slave race we now call humanity. 
   
  This is the story of the Anunnaki, the ancient gods. All religions, myths and mysteries emerged in these ancient times. Flying angels and chariots. Sky ships and miracles. Great constructions in an age supposedly named after stone. The facts do not fit the standard history. Instead, they fit a massive tale of a superior species that came to Earth, created a slave race to mine and serve, and then left behind mystery. 
   
  This is the story of those alien gods.

  A Next Big Idea Club "Must Read" for August 2025! 
   
  Extreme heat, fires, floods, and storms are transforming our planet. Yet we get increasing emissions, divisive politics, and ersatz solutions that offer more of the same: more capitalism, more complexity, more "progress." 
   
  The impasse we face is not only political and institutional, but cognitive, existential, and narrative. We're incapable of grasping the scale, speed, and impact of global warming. And we optimistically cling to a narrative that promises a better tomorrow if we just keep doing what we're doing. 
   
  It's past time to free ourselves from our dangerous and dogmatic faith. Such unwarranted optimism will accelerate our disintegration. If we want to have hope for the future, it must be grounded in a recognition of human limits—a view Scranton calls ethical pessimism. 
   
  Scranton describes the challenges we face in making sense of our predicament, from problems in communication to questions of justice, from the inherent biases in human perception to the difficulties of empirical knowledge. What emerges is a challenging but hopeful proposition: if we have the courage to accept our limits, we may find a way to embrace our future.

  How to Live on 24 Hours a Day

  Written at the height of the early twentieth century, How to Live on 24 Hours a Day remains one of the clearest and most quietly demanding books ever written about time, attention, and personal responsibility. 
  Arnold Bennett begins with a simple, unavoidable truth: every person—regardless of status, wealth, or circumstance—is granted the same twenty-four hours each day. What distinguishes a fulfilled life from a diminished one, he argues, is not how we work, but how we use the hours that remain once work is done. 
  With calm authority and practical insight, Bennett challenges the habit of surrendering evenings to fatigue, distraction, or idle routine. He urges listeners to reclaim their non-working hours for thought, learning, reflection, and deliberate self-development—without abandoning ordinary life or demanding drastic change. His guidance is measured, humane, and realistic, rooted in the belief that steady mental discipline, practiced daily, transforms existence more reliably than bursts of ambition. 
  Narrated with clarity and restraint by LaVel Lane, this audiobook offers a timeless meditation on living deliberately within the constraints of modern life. Free of slogans or hype, How to Live on 24 Hours a Day speaks directly to anyone who has ever felt busy yet unfulfilled—and quietly insists that a richer life is already within reach.

  Pancho Villa - The Bandit That...

  Francisco Villa, better known as Pancho Villa, was a key figure in the Mexican Revolution, known for his transformation from a bandit to one of the revolution’s most influential commanders. Villa’s rise to prominence in the early 20th century marked him as a central player in the violent upheavals that reshaped Mexico’s political landscape. In 1911, Villa became a significant actor in the revolutionary violence that led to the overthrow of President Porfirio Díaz, ushering in Francisco I. Madero’s government. Villa, initially a leader of outlaw groups, aligned himself with Madero’s revolutionary cause, contributing to the instability that culminated in the fall of Díaz’s long-standing dictatorship. 
  The power dynamics in the revolution shifted again when General Victoriano Huerta attempted a right-wing coup in February 1913. As Madero’s government crumbled under Huerta’s forces, Madero led anti-Huerta soldiers in the Constitutionalist Army from 1913 to 1914. The civilian governor of Coahuila, Venustiano Carranza, became the leader of this anti-Huerta coalition. After Huerta’s eventual defeat and exile in July 1914, Villa and Carranza began to diverge politically. Villa, alongside other revolutionary leaders, assembled a gathering of generals in a bid to form a new government, but the resulting coalition was weak and inefficient. Though Villa and Emiliano Zapata, another revolutionary leader, were formally allied during this period, their partnership was largely theoretical. Both men supported land reform, but Villa’s reforms remained unrealized during his tenure of influence.
