Yea and that’s exactly why she doesn’t like him. She has no time for literature that glorifies the “unsanitary” parts of life, or at least draws attention to them as being acceptable rather than base.

How do you feel about Ayn Rand’s feelings on Tolstoy? This quote lives rent free in my head, not necessarily because I agree just for how evocative it is: “Victor Hugo gives me the feeling of entering a cathedral – Dostoevsky gives me the feeling of entering a chamber of horrors, but with a powerful guide – Spillane gives me the feeling of listening to a military band in a public park – Tolstoy gives me the feeling of an unsanitary backyard which I do not care to enter.”

you signed up for life. everything is a battle that is directed for your consciousness to overcome. break the patterns, ascend, repeat. play the game.

it feels off brand they would figure out if they needed to license the song— although they probably did!

the night manager is a peak show. I missed it back in 2016 but i’m always on the lookout for these gems. hiddleston and hugh laurie are both so good in that untouchable british kind of way. also to note, they are both fundamentally good. i don’t know yet if Im supposed to dislike laurie as the villain or if he is meant to present a conundrum but he is someone you can’t help but root for as an anti-hero just like in house. compare for example to guy pearce, so essentially villainous it is only by a sorcerous feat of acting could he play the hero (which I don’t think he actually ever has).

most definitely. I listen to him almost every AM. I found about him through David Ghiyam, who is another powerful teacher for me. Gedale is more Breslov, David focuses on Kabbalah as universal spiritual wisdom.

https://clarifyclinics.com/ London has a new clinic (founded by Scooter Braun’s extraordinary ex wife) where you can walk in and get your blood cleansed of microplastics — by way of a catheter (? idk i don’t speak medical) inserted into either arm that drains blood from one side and transfuses it back in on the other. You book it like you would a sauna session and pop on in. If someone goes, report back.

I’ve been carting my paperback copy of atlas shrugged around everywhere, and as a result, the cover is worn, pages are waterlogged, and a swath of pages even fell out in the park. so I chased down those pages and used book glue to secure them back into the book, and now they are sturdy again, like the patched bag of a worn traveler, albeit a little rough and uneven. obviously I was not going to trade away the treasure of my notations for a new copy. now the outer dimension of the book is giving the appearance of being uncovered under a pile of rubble… at an abandoned factory... and while I cannot tell you how much this delights me or why I am this way, I can tell you this is who I am.
