The screeching. The unending, eternal screeching.

 The crickets still haven't shut up. ;-;

In more interesting news, just got through a second chapter of A People's History of the United States. TYSM for the recommendation, brewsternorth  and yunghustlaz  - this book is awesome (if somewhat bile-aggravating and depressing). Definitely going to buy a real copy. <3

In a nutshell, I saw it as highly revisionist history. I also couldn't stand the hard leftist slant.

You should really open your mind to reading stuff from other political viewpoints... if I stuck to only things that I fully agreed with I wouldn't be reading very much at all. See the articles I post to ONTD_P - there's stuff from The Guardian (centre-left), The Telegraph (right wing), New Statesman (left wing), Morning Star (communist), The Register (generally apolitical but libertarian-leaning)... getting your knowledge from a range of sources is healthy.

I read it as assigned reading and recreational reading. Still hated it. I read lots of stuff from different views, I just prefer what's familiar most of the time.
