@amywelborn2 I usually have the opposite problem. I read something I enjoy and then find the author’s twitter account and realize they’re a lunatic.

@johnny_morgan @amywelborn2 You need to listen to the Matt Dillon read audio book version of On The Road to really appreciate it. Like poetry, it’s meant to be read out loud.

@me1mebigboy @PoThePerson There’s a book called “Canticles of Leibovitz”. It’s good. He’s recommending it.

[Jason @97JBrown]

@VideoGrahams @PoThePerson It’s a good book.

@ChiSoxFanMike He was never the future. Just more interesting than a lot of bad options.

@keepitsimpl9 @ChiSoxFanMike Drop of rain to a man in the desert and all that

@KarolusWangus The corruption is so pervasive and well-paying that the truly corrupt don’t have to bother with pocket change.

@Ed_Realist @AlecCrisman Hamilton WAS an asshole. Proto-“he’s out of line but he’s not wrong” meme brought to life.

@Chris_arnade “Russia” by Martin Sixsmith makes some similar points through a longitudinal study of 1000 years of Russian history.

@kenthecowboy_ Th closest Americanism I can think of to TPS or crab syndrome is when Marines tell recruits to stay of the skyline because that’s where you get shot, but that’s a very specific circumstance (military training) that is nearly incomprehensible in other settings.

@VerumVulnero1 Who would have standing to sue to change the policy?

@FlowbeeOperator @politicalmath Whether Mamdani is the cause or the beneficiary, having like-minded people in positions of power makes him more formidable.

@KeithMurphy Jack Trice and Hilton just jumped a couple spots in the “hardest places to play” category. Farmageddon under the lights? Big Monday against KU? Must watch tv.

@SteaknShake Take your pic.

@iowahawkblog I’m not saying the cyclones are perfect or anything, but we cut an NFL caliber defensive lineman for holding a stop sign.

@DreamUnderDark @johnsmithyson0 Was he liberal or just anti Trump?

[Jason @97JBrown]

@Chris_arnade Everyone’s home!

[Jason @97JBrown]

@Chris_arnade Yes, regarding your point about influence in bad modern fiction, I got strong Michael Scott and Dwight Schrute vibes from Don Quixote. Not sure if that was intentional by the creative folks at The Office or just me connecting dots that don’t need to be connected.

[Jason @97JBrown]

@Chris_arnade Interesting. I don’t feel that way about Moby Dick (which I had no trouble finishing) but I could quote that as my review of Don Quixote. I’ve picked it up and put it down so many times you could say I’m tilting at windmills.
