Ask HN: What's your favorite non-tech/not-quite-tech blog?

2•0xEF•3h ago
As much as we all love tech, here, sometimes we need something to break up that feed of endless articles on LMM this or that, CSS tricks or cybersecurity analysis.

One of my long-time favorites is https://sciencefictionruminations.com/

As an aspiring writer, I really enjoy a lot of the more "out-there" sci-fi that came from the era that Joachim Boaz tends to focus on. It also feeds my love of hunting for gems in used book stores while scratching that itch of wanting to "discuss" a book since I'm lacking in friends that like talking about what they're reading.

I was recently turned on to https://acoup.blog/, which is a delightfully written and fairly educational blog about history...more or less. But it got me wondering what else HN has on their list.

What's that blog in your reader that gets you out of the wires, reminds you that you are more than just your job, or just generally stokes the fires of your curiosity?
