This book is a diagnostic for sure and if you don’t like it just change your doctor (if your health plan allows it!).

This is the GOLD edition, celebrating 1000 copies sold.

the success of corona/samizdat is a testament to the nature of literature and something that abides in abundance in the human despite tech companies attempting to destroy our spirit by feeding books to the machine and feeding garbage back to us. resistance is not futile!
