people were on here saying netflix will make k-pop demon hunters their next money-spinner after stranger things. i'm not against it if we could get sequels that are, like, k-rock demon farmers, or k-classical goblin gatherers

Proof that JRRT met my grandma
Tolkien's musings on reconciling the idea of inherently evil people with Christian ethics may not have borne fruit, but I confess the idea of goblins as unfathomably wise and ancient creatures who were old when the Sun and Moon were young who just CHOOSE to be awful gremlins has a certain zip to it.

lately I have been living my life as if it's around 400 AD: the hegemonic empire that dominated my possibility space for most of my life is in an unarrestable and active decline, and I'm not gonna bother factoring its potential recovery and ability to find and hurt me at a distance into my anxieties

that's right--the most important history is the history of medicine
90% of military history is about where the latrines are dug. You cannot make war if you have dysentery.

the moral of the story that is undergraduates are bad and need steady mentoring

If we try hard enough, I believe we can get the next Archbishop of Canterbury to be from Chicago.
Mar Awa III, patriarch of the Assyrian Church of the East, also born in Chicago, gave Pope Leo a Cubs jersey.
