The bar next to each date shows how long ago it was said: 6d is days, 4yr is years.

Why Does He Do That by Lundy Bancroft

Overall, I think this book has some really good points and brings a lot to the table. It also propagates some really toxic ideas.

It's Always Something by Gilda Radner

And I think she did a really good job portraying that- the ups and downs, what a positive attitude can and can not get you, the costs and benefits of fighting doctors and using alternative treatments. It was a very honest description of both hope and despair without become overwhelming.

High Price

So if you're either looking for an introduction to this issue or share my very strange definition of light reading, I highly recommend this book.

That little bar

It says how long ago something was said, so you can tell last month from 2014 without doing the arithmetic. Full and green is recent; it drains and cools as the date gets older, and empties completely at about 6 years.

A striped bar means the date itself is an estimate — the source did not carry an exact one. An entry with no date at all gets no bar.
