I'm really enjoying BookBeat. Especially with the student 60 day trial

I'd live to year people's recommendations for someone just getting in to books, albeit audiobooks.

I'd not considered that and wonder how much of a limiting factor it was. It certainly seems to have done well for the land in terms of biomass, but as for species diversity who knows?

I just hope this can be policed and makes a big difference.

Ahh that makes sense.

Thank you 😀

I'm certainly enjoying Lemmy so far and think I'm getting to grips with it

As someone who proudly wore the Red Cross for many years as a volunteer I felt proud to be part of a global movement of Red Cross, Red Cresent & Red Crystal National Societies. Knowing that international law and the Geneva Conventions mean little to nothing to 'civilized' nations saddens me immensely.

I'd generally write it and and ask, 'how's this comment?'
