I was today old when I learned that there was a novel called “The Adventures of Roderick Random” written by Tobias Smollett, published in 1748. And now I will forever regret that Roderick Random was not my punk rock alter ego’s stage name.

@normonics Predicted in a book I read as a potential attack vector for terrorists. I think it was lights out by Ted Koppel. Infrastructure that is relatively easy to harm with medium caliber munitions, almost completely unprotected and exclusively sourced from overseas. What could go wrong?

@HjgTweet @DeadpoolBitcoin I read so many books, I don't think I could list them all. I should work on it. John Seymour's the Self Sufficient Life and How to Live It, was key for me.

@ram_farm @Vero_atLast Yeah, good point. I got blind sided early on when starting this account by quoting Gabe Brown's book, Dirt to Soil. Some agronomists attacked me for it, reading a whole lot into me quoting it that wasn't necessarily true. But I started paying attention to some of the claims then.

All that remains is to live here quietly for the rest of my life, eating food that my own labour has made the earth to yield. All that remains is to be a tender of the soil.” ― J.M. Coetzee, Life & Times of Michael K (2/2)
