Couldn’t have picked a more broken person for the most dysfunctional White House in history.

It is genuinely heartening that a national strategy based on ginning up racial animus just fell absolutely flat.

My understanding is that the rumors of Ta-Nehisi Coates taking McAfee's chair on GameDay on Saturday are just that: rumors

Book 20 of 2026 I read this one with my daughter. Harry Potter got too intense so I went looking for something more soothing. Turns out this book is insanely weird, overwritten, and pretty delightful.

First book finished in 2026. It takes a great writer to make me wish I lived on a farm in Nebraska in the 19th century but Cather is that good. A beautiful novel.

Book 19 of 2026 Beginning a read through of all the major Greek tragedies using this as a guide: booksoftitans.com/p/greek-tr… Iphigenia in Aulis was easily the highlight. A gut-wrenching and shockingly modern read. The Cyclops was an unexpected joy too.

This is not a meme anymore. It never was. We successfully saved Anakin, and possibly Star Wars itself. This is a monumental zeitgeist victory the likes we’ve not yet seen. Your posting matters. Our posting matters. Never stop. Protect our hero’s. Protect our myths. We will WIN!

It cannot be overstated how culturally significant Barry Lyndon poasting is. I dont think you could engineer a better anti-progressive memetic virus in lab if you tried.

One of my favorite passages. The entire novel is about, in part, how man’s boundless lust to dominate a nature he does not fully comprehend (typified by Ahab) belies his nobler sentiments, and destroys him in the end.
the reason moby-dick remains such a vital piece of human art is that it addresses what is probably one of humanity's greatest collective atrocities, the genocide of the whales, with an ambivalence it cannot itself fully articulate. melville is distraught, but he can't explain why
