Been meaning to read Kafka on the Shore for many months after my folks recommended it. Maybe I'll finally do it during some days off I have around the holidays.
Haruki Murakami recently received two honors in New York for his contributions to literature and cultural exchange.

I'd pick a Sefer Torah for a few reasons. The most obvious is that it'd be visually striking. It would agitate every piece of shit on the planet. The things I'd do in office would get me wasted anyway, so the threats this would accrue would be drops in the bucket.
omg. Kat Abughazaleh just posted that if she's elected, she'll swear in on a copy of Octavia Butler's Parable of the Sower.
If you were elected to public office (never mind whether you'd ever actually run), what book would you swear in on?

President Trump is proposing a $12 billion farm aid package, a White House official says, as the sector grapples with China tariffs.

Today's appearance of a species of fool who can tell Trumpism is fascist but think the status quo ante of an all-powerful state surveillance apparatus was just fine as long as the right people were in charge of it is most extraordinarily repulsive
