I just submitted my book for peer review. After 15 years of thinking, researching, and writing, and an NEH this year to finish up. I’m furious about the gutting of that institution, which makes so much knowledge possible. I hope this book eventually lives up to that honor.

This was my childhood in the late 80s. “Be back before dark”. Tbh I thought Michael Jackson from thriller would get me after dark.

This is why Jane Austen says “pride” and “prejudice” like dozens of times. There is no “the sentence.” It really is about all of the sentences.

It ruins books for me when I get to "the sentence".

Ok this is pretty cool. I just found out I'm the only guy for whom reading is not performative but rather an authentic expression of an appealingly inclusive and non-reactionary cosmopolitan masculinity.
