After finishing Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail '72 by Hunter S. Thompson I opportunistically picked up Rutger Bregman's Humankind: A Hopeful History. It's pretty good, though I find some of his conclusions suspect, in part because I'm inclined to hope they are true. Underneath all this internet grime I am, after all, an optimist with high hopes for humanity. I have to be careful with that pesky confirmation bias.
I also picked up some comic books from the library to have some variety.
