What’s up, everybody! It’s Monday, September 22nd, 2025. It’s a very special day! This is because President Macron is at the United Nations to recognize the State of Palestine. It’s been a long time coming. It should have been done a long time ago. Anyway, other nations must support this cause as soon as humanely possible due to the Gaza Genocide and the oppression due to the Israeli Regime. Thank you to the UK, Canada, and Australia. It appears that Portugal is soon on board, and we can’t wait for Germany to join. Let’s make that happen soon.

Best nonfiction and history books of September 2025, as chosen by the Amazon Editors [Amazon Book Review]

What’s up, everybody! It’s Sunday, September 21st, 2025. It’s Sunday, meaning it’s a great day for you to go to the bookstore, or the library, or both. Make it a family trip. Do something good for yourself, your loved ones, and your bookclub. For those who you that are superfans, you know that I have a bookclub, you can go to that tab to see what we have for this month. As you know, in Islam, it’s forbidden to exploit gambling (today is the 21st), unfortunately, the Church loves gambling. That’s why, if you go to Church, go to a decent one, one that actually praises Jesus, not a Megachurch where the pastor has a ton of cars, and does not care for the homeless and the hungry. Also, be wary of Churches with hardly any black people, those Churches are potential KKK strongeholds where they hold rallies. If you’re praying this weekend, don’t forget to hold a moment of silence for the 65,000 Palestinians who were murdered by Netanyahu. The real statistics by some entities mentioned that the numbers were in the 680,000 deaths. Israel is indeed guilty of Genocide. Anyway, it’s Sunday, great day to detox from electronics, listen to an audiobook, or read a book on paper, or on iPad/Kindle. Have fun. PS. I had no groceries for the weekend, then thankfully using emergency fund, I was able to buy a few microwaveable meals + Ramen + salad dressing and croutons, shoutout to Chelsea Clinton. I don’t have gas money to go cruisin’ and listen to Techno and drink Dutch Brothers, sorry.
