Thank you, @pitchfork and Maria Sonevytsky. It's an exceptionally well written review, with a deep delve into the relevant context:

I'm fascinated by the rise of frictionmaxxing as a response to a frictionless life. We engineer away inconvenience, only to discover that some of the friction we removed was part of what made life feel alive in the first place
@crack_cocaine Так, і ще щільність! Подкаст це розмова без перерви, коли як у серіалах багато пауз. Але плюс візуальних медіа в тому, що можна вгадати значення незрозумілих слів з контексту.
Learning a language is a leap of faith. Your experience depends on how native speaker culture treats your efforts. Some are like warm waters of onsen. Some are like public swimming pools with Ausweispflicht.
@emperorx@sumlenny Thank you for elaborating, I think I understand your point. I wonder if the mayor you mentioned is an aberrant exception like that AfD member who fought in Ukrainian Armed Forces, or is he indicative of a larger pro-Ukrainian political force within the party.
@emperorx@sumlenny If I understood correctly — in other words, 70% of Die Linke leadership is on the pro-Russian spectrum? AfD is much more enthusiastically pro-Russian, but does it make a real difference? Or, in Ukrainian, it's rather a classic case of жаба та гадюка
What I think fewer and fewer people realise is that often the key to very deep reading is not thought or knowledge but feeling. I read The Sound and the Fury for the first time entirely with my gut, with my emotions, and only later did I go away and analytically confirm what my body had already told me through those primal processes that exist below or under what we think, in the place that causes the stir in the stomach of happiness and the weight in the chest of grief. For this reason, no computer, no system of bells and lights gathering the data of the whole world, can read a book. Only a human who can be in pain and hope for love can read a book.
philosophy as a form of artistry must be a bit evil. ai companies hire analytic philosophers, who don't understand this, which is why there's no artistry, and a hunger for 'aesthetics.'
We have spent most of this year and past year touring, but I don't think I posted a lot of announcements here. This is our autumn tour as a part of the Swamp Booking family. Check https://t.co/EYXRbPdotZ for regular updates.
