  American Doom Loop - Dispatches...

  Americans lived in a different reality in 1980: Vermont was the only state that let residents carry a concealed firearm without a permit. Twenty-four states now allow this—and numerous other gun laws have fallen by the wayside. When police were accused of wrongdoing, the default answer from society's arbiters was: "The police wouldn't lie." Editors steered clear of stories about rape and sexual violence. The word "homeless" wasn't in common use. The fabric of the middle class had not yet begun fraying. 
   
   
   
  America of the 2020s is living with cultural shapeshifting rooted in the 1980s. American Doom Loop chronicles the first part of that moving picture, then brings the story forward. 
   
   
   
  As a newspaper journalist, Dale Maharidge had a front-row seat to this decade. He was in the Philippines during the last days of Dictator Ferdinand Marcos, witnessing the US lose a critical piece of its empire dating to the Spanish–American War; he embedded with a group that was a precursor to the Oath Keepers; and he investigated police, who kept trying to get him fired. 
   
   
   
  Through it all, Maharidge gained an invaluable view of a complicated decade that offers insight into our society today.

  The Maltese Falcon

  A priceless black bird disappears, and suddenly San Francisco feels like a trap with velvet walls. Private detective Sam Spade is hired for what looks like a simple missing-person case—until the story fractures into lies, dead bodies, and a trail of people who want the same thing for very different reasons. Everyone is performing: grieving, flirting, begging, threatening. And Spade, sharp-eyed and harder to read than the criminals he chases, has to decide what matters more—money, desire, or the thin line he calls his own code.    The Maltese Falcon is a classic of hardboiled crime fiction: fast, tense, and morally slippery. It's a world of smoke-filled rooms, sudden betrayals, and conversations where every word is a weapon. The mystery pulls you forward, but the real danger is watching how quickly "truth" becomes just another tool in the negotiation.

  It's Not You It's Everything -...

  If we can agree on anything, it's that we are not okay. Our culture is reeling from the ravages of a global pandemic, a precipitous rise in depression and anxiety, suffocating debt, white supremacy, hypercapitalism, and a virulent political animus—to name a few. But what if it's not us? What if it's . . . well, everything? What if trying to conform to a sick culture is actually making us sick? 
   
   
   
  In It's Not You, It's Everything psychotherapist and former pastor Eric Minton claims that the pernicious melding of capitalism and Christianity means a world of competition, perfection, and scarcity disguised as self-help and self-care. Rather than shaming, silencing, or medicating away our disappointment at not having obtained the happiness we were promised, however, Minton posits a radical alternative. In an impertinent, droll, yet pastoral voice, Minton suggests that our "not-okayness" will require rethinking everything we thought we knew about God, depression, the economy, culture, education, technology, and happiness. 
   
   
   
  By naming all the ways we're not okay, we move away from fear and shame and toward love, and trust, and trustworthiness. We'll need nothing less than hip-hop, Mr. Rogers, liberation theology, and Jesus to get us there. But on the other side of our pain is a radical "okayness" that might just set us free.

  Learning Happiness - The...

  Osho

  The Sutra of 42 Chapters is a scripture complied in the first century CE.  Each saying comes from Buddha, but the whole work was a new anthology created especially for introducing Buddhism in a new country. That's why it makes such a good, basic introduction to the world view of Gautam Buddha. It is very simple in its approach, very direct. It is, in essence the whole of Buddha's message, but very simple, not elaborate and very scholarly as other Buddhist scriptures are.
  Osho extracts the kernel of Buddha's profound insight and understanding and presents his everlasting message to the contemporary listener in a manner that is lucid, straightforward and humorous. Far from being just a statue, here Buddha is an amazing human being so far ahead of his time that even now he is only just beginning to be more widely understood.
  In these talks Osho discusses the need for doubt and argument in the spiritual search, the nature of desire and the discipline of non-attachment.
  The talks in this audiobook are a series of original OSHO Talks, titled "The Discipline of Transcendence, Vol.2".
  Vol.03 LEARNING HAPPINESS
  
  - Desire Cannot Be Fulfilled

  - The Forbidden Path
