pov you (ostensibly) set out to write a poem for hank and ended up writing a poem for yourself. many such cases.

it can matter to you because it matters to, say, katherine (or orin or john or whomever else). it can matter to you because other things that matter are easier to engage with amidst joy than amidst misery. it can matter to you because nothing awaits you in the divine for resisting your own joy.

It is easier to criticize and distance than build. What are you building? In real life. And not just personal relationships. If you are able to leave your home, your leftism means nothing if it entirely consists of posting on the internet. It means nothing if it consists entirely of "right belief"

Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM

Charter schools are worse for society than private schools in many cases. Just because it's not a private school doesn't mean you're not part of the problem by sending your kids to a charter school. Support your local public school district.

CNN: DHS officials have come to FEMA staff and told them to limit the use of the word ice…they are worried that by posting something like, watch out for the ice, that it's going to become a meme….

A few days ago, I stood in the graveyard of an 1100 year old church, getting damper and damper in the drizzling rain. A woman walked into the graveyard, waved, said hello, and, as we had previously arranged, handed me a paper bag full of human bones. The life of a churchwarden is a strange one...
