So I'm going to try my luck on here, (and maybe just maybe if this gets boosted enough I'll be lucky)... Does anyone have or know where I can get a copy of the English edition for Simona Kossak's The Bialowieza Forest Saga? I've tried almost all avenues for a few years now... Also considered trying to learn Polish to read the more readily available original edition.

Whether there's nobody out there, or it's turtles all the way down, doesn't change the fact that we're all here.
With each other.
We can make something nice from that, or we can fuck it up.
It doesn't matter who is correct about what holds the sun up or who keeps the serpent from eating it, or whether anyone made it in the first place.
It matters how we treat each other and what we build.

We are a community, and we sometimes have disagreements. There are people of all manner of ideologies and ways of life that are on here, from the traditional to the exceedingly eccentric. (Hi!)
Yesterday I had a very wide ranging discussion about free will and determinism with @MLClark @AskTheDevil @Jorro @thewebrecluse and others.
THough we are all quite different and we got quite deep, we were all respectful of each other and had a good chat.
That is community, and a very good one.
I was watching a youtube video that was a deep analysis of Tarantino's films over lunch, and it got into a wander, talking about the effect of social media on culture.
Most notably it cited a Korean philosopher who has spoken about Social Media being antithetical to the formation of true community, substituting community for random hits of attention.
Then I thought about Coso, which is in many ways the antithesis of social media.
Heard from Sister 2 in North Asheville. Says they were all hunkered down and were enjoying it until the power went out and things got worse when they heard the water will go out and likely be two weeks before things are fixed.
Says they are exploring their options but with tons of roads all messed up not sure if there is a way out.
