Descirption: From the comedic minds behind TheHardTimes.net comes the most accurate reporting on punk and hardcore culture in music history Since 2014, The Hard Times has been at the forefront of music journalism, delivering hard-hitting reports and in-depth investigations into the punk and hardcore scene. From their scathing takedown of Kim Jong-un after he appointed himself the new singer of Black Flag to their incisive coverage of a healthy Lars Ulrich being replaced by a hologram, the site has become a trusted source for all things counterculture. Now, in this zine-style "historical retrospective," the writers behind the site reveal their humble roots, documenting The Hard Times' ascension alongside the rise of punk. With original articles from their 'archives' commenting on '70s, '80s, and '90s punk, as well as fan favorites from the aughts onward, this comprehensive examination of the scene will make readers dust off their Doc Martens...

The Illusion of Money by Kyle Cease
Type : epub |
Size : 1.19 MB |
English |
Descirption: New York Times best-selling author and comedian-turned-motivational speaker Kyle Cease sho how your obsession with money is actually preventing you from living the life of your dreams.
"I can't afford that." "Now's not the right time . . . I need to save up." "Quit my job? Are you nuts?!"
Sound familiar? Money is one of the biggest excuses we make to not go after what we really want. Our fixation with money-the desire for more of it, and the fear of not having enough of it-is often really just a longing to feel safe. But this obsession with money is coming at a much bigger cost: our sanity, our creativity, our freedom, and our ability to step into our true power.
This book is about eliminating the need to seek safety through the illusion of money, and learning to see ourselves for the perfection that we are-so that we can bring our gifts to the world in an authentic way, and allow ourselves to receive massive, true abundance as a...

The More or Less Definitive Guide to Self-Care by Anna Borges
Type : epub |
Size : 7.96 MB |
English |
Descirption: Some days you need a pick-me-up, some days you need a life preserver.
"For most of us," writes Anna Borges, "self-care is a wide spectrum of decisions and actions that soothe and fortify us against all the shit we deal with." You may already practice some form of self-care, whether it's taking an extra-long shower after a stressful day, splurging on a ~fancy~ dinner, or choosing Netflix over that friend-of-a-friend's birthday party. But when life gets so overwhelming that you want to stay in bed, some more radical care is crucial to maintain your sanity.
The More or Less Definitive Guide to Self-Care is here to help you exist in the world. Borges gathers over 200 tips, activities, and stories (from experts and everyday people alike) into an A-to-Z list-from asking for help and burning negative thoughts to the importance of touch and catching some Zzz's. Make any day a little more OK with new skills in your self-care toolkit-and energy to show up for yourself.

Review
"Borges affirms in her sensitive, fun, and practical book [that] it's most important to make health and well-being a personal responsibility. . . . An engaging A-to-Z guidebook filled with options for creating a personal and versatile self-care toolkit that will last a lifetime." -Foreword Revie starred review
"Borges's welcoming tone and plethora of ideas will be helpful for readers whether they're looking for ideas for being just a little bit happier or struggling with serious mental health concerns." -*Publishers Weekly*
"Anna has written a truly comprehensive book for people who are trash at taking care of themselves." -Lane Moore, bestselling author of How To Be Alone: If You Want To, and Even If You Don't
"A thoughtful and empathetic resource filled with kindness, knowledge, and actual specific information that will actually help." -Jonny Sun, author and illustrator of Everyone's a Aliebn When Ur a Aliebn Too
"Anna Borges boasts a keen understanding of all the parts of ourselves we typically fail to nourish, and just what damage that can do over time. Whether you're desperate for an emotional overhaul or just looking for extra ways to boost your mood, there's something in this book for everyone. It's bursting with specific, actionable solutions and sound advice." -Andrea Bonior, PhD, licensed clinical psychologist and "Baggage Check" mental health advice columnist
"Anna Borges has done more to promote health and wellness for the general public than any other contemporary writer I know. Weaving together scientific truths, personal experience, and regular people's stories, Borges calls out the stigma and shame that prevents us from prioritizing our well-being. This is an often hilarious and occasionally heartbreaking guide for anyone feeling overwhelmed. As a therapist, I'll recommend this book to my clients to help them cope with stress and manage their emotions between sessions. It's so entertaining and informative they (okay, I) won't put it down." -Ryan Howes, PhD, ABPP, clinical psychologist and writer for Psychology Today and Psychotherapy Networker Magazine

The Politics of Pain by Fintan O'Toole
Type : epub |
Size : 625.09 KB |
English |
Descirption: From one of the most perceptive observers of the English today comes a brilliantly insightful, mordantly funny account of their seemingly irrational embrace of nationalism. England's recent lurch to the right appears to be but one example of the nationalist wave sweeping across the world, yet as acclaimed Irish critic Fintan O'Toole suggests in The Politics of Pain , it is, in reality, a phenomenon rooted in World War II. We must look not to the vagaries of the European Union but, instead, far back to the end of the British empire, if we hope to understand our most fraternal ally―and the royal mess in which the British now find themselves. O'Toole depicts a roiling nation that almost ludicrously dreams of a German invasion, if only to get the blood going, and that erupts in faux outrage over regulations on "prawn-flavored crisps." A sympathetic yet unsparing observer, O'Toole asks: How did a great nation bring itself to the point of such willful self-harm? His answer represents one of the most profound portraits of the English since Sarah Lyall's New York Times bestseller The Anglo Files. **

Size : 1.72 MB |
English |
Descirption: An engrossing history of the science of one of the four fundamental physical forces in the universe, electromagnetism, right up to the latest indications that the poles are soon to reverse and destroy the world's power grids and electronic communications
A cataclysmic planetary phenomenon is gathering force deep within the Earth. The magnetic North Pole will eventually trade places with the South Pole. Satellite evidence suggests to some scientists that the move has already begun, but most still think it won't happen for many decades. All agree that it has happened many times before and will happen again. But this time it will be different. It will be a very bad day for modern civilization.
Award-winning science journalist Alanna Mitchell tells in The Spinning Magnet the fascinating history of one of the four fundamental physical forces in the universe, electromagnetism. From investigations into magnetism in thirteenth-century feudal France and the realization...

You Are Awesome by Neil Pasricha
Type : epub |
Size : 9.85 MB |
English |
Descirption: From Neil Pasricha-New York Times, million-copy bestselling author of The Book of Awesome series and The Happiness Equation, thought leader for the next generation, and one of the most popular TED speakers in the world-comes a revelatory and inspiring book that will change the way we view failure and help us build resilience.
We are lucky. For most of us, famine, plague, economic depression, and other life-threatening catastrophes are the stuff of history books. We're living in an era with the highest-ever rates of longevity, education, and wealth. Cars drive us home as our phones entertain us before we arrive to food delivered to the front door. We have it all!
But there's just one side effect. We no longer have the tools to handle failure...or even perceived failure. When we fall, we lie on the sidewalk crying. When we spill, we splatter. When we crack, we shatter.
We are turning into an army of porcelain dolls.
A rude email from the boss means calling in sick. Only two likes on our post means we don't have friends. Cell phones show us we're never good enough. Yesterday's butterflies are tomorrow's panic attacks. Record numbers of students have clinical anxiety. And what about depression, loneliness, and suicide?
All rising!
What do we desperately need to learn?
RESILIENCE. And we need to learn it fast.
Read You Are Awesome to learn:
• The single word that keeps your options open after failure
• What every commencement speech gets wrong
• 3 ways to dramatically accelerate your ability to learn and adapt
• The 2-minute morning practice that helps eliminate worry
• Why you need an Untouchable Day (and how to get one)
• and much, much more...
Because the truth is, you really are awesome.

North Korea Journal by Michael Palin
Type : epub |
Size : 5.03 MB |
English |
Descirption: In this beautifully illustrated journal based on a TV documentary, writer, comedian and world traveller Michael Palin journeys to North Korea, offering a glimpse of life inside the world's most secretive country, uncovering surprises and making friends along the way.
In May 2018, former Monty Python stalwart and intrepid globetrotter Michael Palin spent two weeks in the notoriously secretive Democratic People's Republic of Korea, a cut-off land without internet or phone signal, where the countryside has barely moved beyond a centuries-old peasant economy but where the cities have gleaming skyscbangrs and luxurious underground train stations. His resulting documentary was widely acclaimed.
Now he shares his day-by-day diary of his visit, in which he describes not only what he saw-and his fleeting vie of what the authorities didn't want him to see-but recounts the conversations he had with the country's inhabitants, talks candidly about his encounters with...
