If you’re pondering holiday gift ideas, you may be interested to know that my little book is 30% off! Though it strangely doesn’t seem to have made any Best Books of the Year lists (yet) it is small and cute and might bring some joy to someone in your life.

kids are watching this hugely irritating youtube show and i was thinking it's a good thing there's youtube because i don't think there's anything else this annoying youtuber is cut out for and then i realized academia is exactly the same

anyhow, this is now the epigraph to my talk on not-pope
"Some valuing those of their own side or mind,
Still make themselves the measure of mankind"

same but for reading "phenomenology of spirit"
(For fellow academics): I've said this before but if u have some good colleagues, I can't recommend a writing group enough. 4 of us meet every 3 wks, where 2 of us share some writing (it can be 2 pgs or 30), so u r only on the hook every 6 weeks. One of the greatest joys of my professional life.
