[\#booksuggestions](https://mstdn.social/tags/booksuggestions) anybody know of some novels or series with themes including the good side of humanity? I really like [#StarTrek](https://mstdn.social/tags/StarTrek) for that, where the human heart is challenged yet prevails. Not necessarily looking for Sci-Fi but not excluding it either. Maybe something historical or steampunky would be cool. 😅 [@books@lemmy.ml](https://lemmy.ml/c/books) [@books@lemmy.world](https://lemmy.world/c/books) [@bookstodon](https://a.gup.pe/u/bookstodon) [#Books](https://mstdn.social/tags/Books)

@MrJameGumb I certainly wouldn't pay for their API key if their API goes down as often as it does. Good business strategy

Lol, meanwhile I haven't had issues with Lemmy for a couple of months, and never had any issues with mastodon.

A person who traveled is still a traveler, regardless of distance. Just because others have made it further, that doesn't negate your own progress.
Same thing with emotions. A person who is sad is allowed to be sad, even if someone else in the world might have it worse.

Good. Medical professionals make an oath to provide healthcare and to treat their patients. They should not be able to break that oath due to a hazy gray line defined from their personal religion.
