At the Internet Archive, this is how we digitize a book.

We never destroy a book by cutting off its binding.
Instead, we digitize it the hard way--one page at a time.

Enormous xylophone in the woods of Kyushu, Japan plays a Bach tune when a wooden ball rolls down each "key." An impressive piece of engineering.

The asymmetry couldn’t be clearer. There is never an expectation that Republicans should reach out and compromise with Democrats - despite them consistently losing the majority of voters. Compromise is always framed in the direction of coddling racist policies and people.

much like the appendix, your humanity is a vestigial and potentially dangerous remnant of a more primitive stage in evolution. fortunately modern technology allows us to deal with this economic irrationality before it develops into something more serious, like a soul

Updated my map of the Great Lakes Empire, may it last a thousand years.

where’d we get this idea that being kind and gentle and hopeful is somehow “twee” and “soft”? being cynical and cold and cruel is easy; it takes a soul of steel to embrace your enthusiasms and see the good in the world, and in others, when everyone’s trying to tear you down.

The reason analytic philosophers never came up with anything analogous to existentialism is because they are all a bunch of nerds, and nerds don't give a shit about stuff like the meaning of life.

You know what I love? Being new at things. Starting to learn or experience something new can be daunting but it can also be an adventure. I don't know why so many people treat it like its a bad thing.

I am new to watching anime. Tell me something that you're new at.

In a letter to his wife, Robert E Lee once stated, "I love losing and these idiots will never know. This is all a big joke to me. I can't even read a map."

It's been so long since I've been to the library, I'm starting to read all the books I've already had but never read.
