Reddit reviews Tribe: On Homecoming and Belonging

I am nearly 1/3 through Kris Kershaw's The One-eyed God: Odin and the (Indo-) Germanic Mannerbunde, which I'm finding fascinating. I read reviews that said it was poorly written, but I don't agree with that so far. It seems a bit unfinished, but I shouldn't throw stones (more on that tomorrow). As long as you come to it expecting something scholarly and not really intended for popular audiences, you shouldn't be disappointed. I'm actually finding that it's dovetailing nicely with another book I'm reading right now that is intended for popular audiences (and is also less appropriate for this sub): Sebastian Junger's Tribe. I'm sure there's some bad history in there, but as of right now I'm really digging it.

I just heard back about the exciting job I interviewed for a few months ago. I didn't get it, but found out it was a close race and a splinter skill was the difference between multiple people getting it.

I've been reading more recently: Just Mercy, which I highly reccomend; Twelve-by-Twelve; Tribe; A Renegade History of the US; and At Risk Youth.

I know I still need to compile and post about the Social Skills course I took last month, and I will, I've just been busy with school, work, and life.

Have you read Tribe by Sebastian Junger? The transition to civilian life is hard regardless if the veteran experienced combat or not.

He probably misses the camaraderie and the simplicity of being told what to do. If you are struggling with mental health issues, it can be a welcome relief to have someone tell you when to get up, when to eat, what to wear, what to do, etc.
