  he Sickness Unto Death, and Other Fun Danish Party Games: Kierkegaard Without the Prozac is your gloriously sarcastic, brutally insightful, and occasionally soul-crushing guide to philosophy’s original sadboy, Søren Kierkegaard. 
  Tired of reading philosophy that feels like intellectual sandpaper? This book unpacks Kierkegaard’s anxiety-fueled, despair-drenched theology with the humor and honesty it desperately needs. From aesthetic dead-ends to existential panic, from absurd leaps of faith to spiritual ghosting, this irreverent (but accurate!) guide doesn’t just explain Kierkegaard—it translates him for the modern reader who’s spiritually curious and emotionally exhausted. 
  Perfect for readers who love philosophy but hate philosophers, theology with a side of dark humor, and the occasional mental breakdown in pursuit of authenticity. 
  What you’ll get inside: 
  Pseudonyms, despair, and that one time Abraham almost committed murder in the name of faith 
  The aesthetic life: fun until it isn’t 
  Why being a good person might still mean you’re completely lost 
  Faith, absurdity, and how to jump into the void without looking down 
  Kierkegaard’s existential glow-up in modern philosophy (yes, Sartre, we see you) 
  A roadmap for reading his actual books without losing your will to live 
  And a final call to wake up and stop living someone else’s life 
  No prior philosophy degree required—just a sense of humor, a tolerance for paradox, and maybe a journal for emotional damage control.

  "It encapsulates five titillating reluctant feminization stories of men submitting to sissification brought upon by domineering t-girls and femdom." 
  Top T-Girls And Sub Sissies Volume One is Lilly Lustwood’s first collection of her Short Reluctant Feminization Fiction Selections series. 
  Story 1 – The Wrong Room Number 
  On a rainy October night in Bangkok, Hunter was warped into the world of three dominant Thai ladyboys—etching into a memoir of his first time forced feminization sissy story. 
  Story 2 – Sissy Got Blacked 
  Morgan got a positive reply and anticipated a rowdy rendezvous. Little did he know, the message he got was from Jamal, his dream girl’s boyfriend. On that snowy Saturday afternoon, he learned a valuable lesson in life… from three vengeful high schoolers. 
  Story 3 – Karen Meets The Manager 
  Karl Norman had a knack for gaining store credits and free products from his expertise in compelling complaining. On a balmy afternoon in San Francisco, California, he learned that he simply couldn’t get away with anything by complaining and that his mouth served more purposefully for Bruna, the manager’s pleasure. 
  Story 4 – Bitcoin Begging 
  Manny wanted to recover from the crypto bear market. He started perusing the Sissification and Feminization section of an obscure website called Bitcoin Begging. Luckily, his photo intrigued someone with the username mrs.morningwood. 
  Story 5 – Sissy Stuffing 
  Gwyn Powell, a Pearly Planes native plans to help his mother take over Martha’s homeowner’s association presidential position by using his sinfully saccharine Butter Pecan Pie. Will the young man’s insolence tilt Martha’s crown or is he destined to be stuffed, basted, and glazed like a turkey for Thanksgiving?

  Battle of Woody Point The: The...

  The fur trade had its tensions, but for many years, traders and natives worked out their own systems, times, and traditions, allowing many different groups to interact and even compete without issues that led to war. Though native groups sometimes found themselves in conflicts based on long-standing rivalries or relations with the Europeans, most of the fur traders, the trappers, the Indians, and Hudson’s Bay Company officials lived peaceably. The great amount of distance from one another in this land of millions of miles likely helped to alleviate tensions. When a new vision for the Hudson’s Bay Company came about, one where settlers, not itinerants, would be responsible for the colony, the rules changed. 
  In 1810, through the Pacific Fur Company, John Jacob Astor began to direct his energies at the still mostly unexploited regions accessible from the mouth of the Columbia River. This was, of course, in open defiance of British claims, but that was very much in keeping with Astor’s style. Astor put up the money, and a group of American and Canadian fur traders would manage affairs on the ground, traveling to the region to erect Fort Astoria and a string of trading posts in the region that could deal with the natives, trade with Asia and the East Coast, and amass untold riches. Or at least that was the plan. 
  Fort Astoria wouldn’t last a decade, and its turbulent history was so full of unfortunate twists and turns, a mixture of bad luck and incompetence, that the story still fascinates people today. And among all the chapters of that short history, none are as interesting as the fateful Battle of Woody Point, a misnomer for a confrontation that was brought about by misunderstandings, arrogance, and misplaced pride. The episode, despite its brevity and its occurrence in the furthest reaches of North America at the time, would color relations between whites and natives in the Pacific Northwest for decades.

  Prisoners of Jan Smuts - Italian...

  Equally skilled in a variety of trades other than in the art of love, the Italian prisoners of war (POWs) who were incarcerated in South Africa during the Second World War are a source of great fascination to this day. Who were these men? And what made some of them attempt dramatic escapes, while others wanted to stay behind after the war?
  The first Italian POWs arrived in the Union of South Africa in early 1941, most of them being held in Zonderwater Camp outside Cullinan or in work camps across the country. The government of Jan Smuts saw them as a source of cheap labour that would contribute to harvesting schemes, road-building projects such as the old Du Toit's Kloof Pass between Paarl and Worcester and even to prickly-pear eradication schemes.
  Prisoners of Jan Smuts recounts the stories of survival and shenanigans of the Italian POWs in the Union through the eyes of five prisoners who had documented their experiences in memoirs and letters. While many POWs seemed to appreciate the opportunities to gain new skills, others clung to the Fascist ideas they had grown up with and refused to work
  .
  Many opted to remain in South Africa once the war had ended, forging quite a legacy. These included sculptor Edoardo Villa, who left an important mark in the local and international art world, and businessman Aurelio Gatti, who built an ice-cream empire whose gelato was to delight generations of South Africans.
