In January 2019, culture writer Anne Helen Petersen set the internet on fire with her viral BuzzFeed essay diagnosing “millennial burnout” - a chronic state of stress and exhaustion that’s become a “base temperature” for young people today. Now, she continues this generation-defining conversation in a brand-new format, interviewing millennials around the country about their own deeply personal experiences with burnout, and the culture that creates it.

maybe good for you not what I needed

"burn out wasn't recognized until it started effecting white women" this line should tell you if your all in on this and for some it's what they need. me I'm burnt out on politics and was looking for something to help me chill out a bit. Narration was excellent.

Historia3.5 out of 5 stars 769
It was supposed to be an easy job: find the Dark Star Revolution Starships, destroy them, and go home. But a booby-trapped vessel decimates the Meridian Alliance fleet, leaving Serengeti - a Valkyrie class warship with a sentient AI brain - on her own, wrecked and abandoned in an empty expanse of space. On the edge of total failure, Serengeti thinks only of her crew. She herds the survivors into a lifeboat, intending to sling them into space. But the escape pod sticks in her belly, locking the cryogenically frozen crew inside.

Drastic tone shift in first third.
Revisado: 05-14-19
In the beginning you have space battles severed legs eyes being burned out. Then the tone does a 180 and reads like a children's book that drags on for 38 years trying to manually launch an escape pod. It's not stuck or damaged the designed clamps that hold it to the ship take 8 years at a time to undue because they don't work without power......the escape pod doesn't work without power?! That's 6 hours of my life and if you listen to this it will be 6 hours of yours you can't get back. it's not action packed and like "oh no" it's like " let's see how that escape pods coming along.......him I don't speak robot . Oh well back to sleep." The AI can't speak robot?!

No subject is bigger than reality itself, and nothing is more challenging to understand, since what counts as reality is undergoing continual revision and has been for centuries. The quest to pin down what's real and what's illusory is both philosophical and scientific, a metaphysical search for ultimate reality that goes back to the ancient Greeks. For the last 400 years, this search has been increasingly guided by scientists, who create theories and test them in order to define and redefine reality.

really great lecture series

Listened to this while jogging . The instructor does a great job in introducing the listener to a vast array of topics and how they define the world we live in and why it is how it is.

Meditations is former U.S. President Bill Clinton's favorite book. This audio consists of a series of personal writings by Marcus Aurelius, Roman Emperor 161-180 AD, setting forth his ideas on Stoic philosophy.

well narator has odd pausing habits that make the book hard to follow. Thought voice sounded fine in the preview. But the break's make it hard for me to follow s really interesting story.

Excellent story telling
Revisado: 04-09-17
I loved the story it gets very in depth with explaining all of who the characters are and what each dinosaur is. The story is thriller sci-fi which every year seems less sci Fi and more just plain fiction with what's possible. one part I couldn't stand was the niece Lex I can see why they changed her character for the movie. The narrator was top notch I could have sworn it was multiple people reading the male dialogues.

Here for the first time, in rich human, political, and scientific detail, is the complete story of how the bomb was developed, from the turn-of-the-century discovery of the vast energy locked inside the atom to the dropping of the first bombs on Japan. Few great discoveries have evolved so swiftly - or have been so misunderstood. From the theoretical discussions of nuclear energy to the bright glare of Trinity, there was a span of hardly more than 25 years.

An amazing story of science
Revisado: 06-29-16
The book starts with the study of atoms and all the scientist that were involved in the discovery of the nucleas of the atom. It then follows the effects of war breaking out and where many scientists end up fleeing persecution.The last stretch is about research into creating a functional atom bomb and what it was like for those who were researching it. It's an amazing book for anyone who is interested in science. I learned the back story for all the scientists named in my physics 2 text book. Good narration and a compelling story.

What is space? It isn't a question that most of us normally stop to ask. Space is the venue of physics; it's where things exist, where they move and take shape. Yet over the past few decades, physicists have discovered a phenomenon that operates outside the confines of space and time. The phenomenon - the ability of one particle to affect another instantly across the vastness of space - appears to be almost magical.

well the material is complicated but I like how the author draws parallels from past science to help explain why there is debate and what led up to the theory of quantum behavior.
