The paper contains a lots of polemics with Quentin Skinner, weird interpretations of Carl Schmitt, Von Thünen’s model of the city, Grotius discussing small bodies of water, and Tocqueville on the prairie. So what is there not to like?

I have a new preprint out with @picharbonnier.bsky.social ! We argue that the history of political thought has not taken the environment seriously enough. We propose a new approach that we call the environmental history of ideas. sciencespo.hal.science/hal-05752562

Listening, yet again, to Chris Watson's El Tren Fantasma, one of the most wonderful soundscape recordings I've ever heard. For me, it's a travel staple. I can't explain exactly why, but I love listening to it while flying. Perhaps wishful thinking.

If the author’s portrait is anything to go by, I have serious doubts about how delightful the "heerlijke konterfeijtsels" (delightful portraits) in this book will actually be.

This podcast episode is not only interesting because @michaelhobbes.bsky.social & Peter Shamshiri meticulously lay out how bad Yascha Mounk's "scholarship" is but also because they show how weak the empirical basis for the "anti-woke" movement is.

Question for the economic theologians out there: Is the role of our banking system in pushing "the day of reckoning" into the future rooted in the Christian doctrine of holding back the end times (the kathechon and all that)?

Ma Zhiyuan 馬致遠 (ca. 1250 - 1312), "To the tune 'Bo bu duan'"

布衣中，問英雄。
王圖霸業成何用？
禾黍高低六代宮。
楸梧遠近千官塚。
一場惡夢。

Standing in humble homespun robes,
I question history's men of great esteem:
What use were all your kingly plans;
How long endured the tyrant's scheme?
Palaces from the Six Dynasties
Now fertilize the farmer's grain,
And scraggly catalpa trees
Mark loyal ministers' remains:
All history is one bad dream.

Surely I'm not the only one getting this vibe from the Switch 2's joycons:

Switch joycons. They are bodies are fully blue and fully red, with accenting black buttons.

Star Trek TOS uniforms. They're red and blue shirts accented by black pants and undershirts.

Switch 2 Joycons. They're solid black, with a stripe of blue and red accenting them.

Deep Space 9 uniforms. They're mostly black with a stripe of blue and red accenting them.

French was according to J.S. Mill not a great language. Yet the French are so good in speculative bullshit that the intellectual mind cannot help but to feel compelled.

Lacking any clue about the title or artist, I obsessively spent two hours trying to find it again. I hope you enjoy it; otherwise, I wasted my afternoon. youtu.be/L5eEMcoVBwY?...

"Anarcho‑Pacifist Egoism" does not describe my ideology but I still want this fancy Stirner flag: www.architectural-review.com/essays/platf...

These complex ideological labels ‘serve as a gamified form of identity play and niche personal branding’, says Joshua Citarella, who has created physical flags for them, including Anarcho‑Pacifist Egoism, New Federal State of China, Young Americans for Liberty, Traditional Slavic Agrarianism, Anarcho‑Transhumanist Solarpunk, and Austro‑Libertarian Distributism
