Lol remember when Bevin offered the idea of prayer patrols who would walk around Louisville's West End praying as a solution to the gang violence there and then when the Black pastors said that wasn't a real solution he said they weren't real Christians

I had a Democrat come to me yesterday in a hipster coffee shop to tell me he was considering re-registering as a Republican. He said: "This is not the party that I know. The direction that they're going is totally wrong. Can you please pay for my pumpkin spice latte because I'm poor due to socialism."

My wife read Anna Karenina a year or two ago, it took her a while and her take-away was that it's about crazy rich idiots

That would be The Idiot.

Anna K. is mostly about how much religion and capitalism sucks with some rich people screwing each other on the side.

Conversely the best is when an author creates characters that he personally disagrees with to have them fail and die or go insane. Dostoyevsky had like 3 of these in every book and they all rule

Thurber also had some epic sexual hangups. He was the patient zero incel.

His second book has a gimmick where you turn it upside down and start from the other side every right pages, and then repeat that process to have the same story from two different points of view except maybe it's a poem about America and the characters are concepts or archetypes and maybe they aren't

I did not finish it

the coolest part was how the narratives got more and more similar until they met in the middle where both were identical and then slowly diverged again after that but yeah, it was pretty unbearable. neat bit of bookmaking though, much like house of leaves. his printers must have a love hate relationship with him
