Time to refresh myself with a dip in Lake Synopsis. The Cones and Quills. A writer living in Tokyo. Go, hikes and medical-grade nonsense. ●〇 https://open.substack.com/pub/archfidelity?r=7c5cd&utm_medium=ios

Two Years After Cormac McCarthy's Death, Rare Access to His Personal Library Reveals the Man Behind the Myth The famously reclusive novelist amassed a collection of thousands of books ranging in topics from philosophical treatises to advanced mathematics to the naked mole-rat

"McCarthy was starting to seem like a man whose talents and intelligence were without limits, yet he lived in a hoarder’s shambles and couldn’t stop buying nonstick skillets and fruit bowls."

Finally got round to reading this.

Fired up the humidifier, which freaked out the air purifier, triggering online research to the effect that ultrasonic and evaporative humidifiers emit mineral dust. Currently converting credit card points into a warm mist humidifier.

When it comes to your physical books, do you mark the text up, whether with pencil, pen or highlight?

Recent trip to the peninsula was great for many reasons and food was # 2. I learned that Korean sashimi involves leafy sandos and dipping sauce, and that Korean people get secretly disappointed if you don't cram the whole thing into your mouth with gusto.

He cleans his metal mask with gasoline, they after him
last seen pullin' chicks
like a fiend pull a fast one
Can't put shit past him,
got niwas on his own team
mad enough to blast him
Retarded in real life,
on the mic Rain Man
who stand close to his main man
like a chain gang

The Oxford comma is like the flaps on an airplane. There are times when you can and should use it, but using it all the time would create unnecessary drag.
