My feeling as well. It's really _not_ painful to lose some of the figures from my relative youth.

They are big among people who keep journals or write letters. I sent some pictures to my aunt and she said she put them on her refrigerator, which seems right, too.

I may be one of the few political philosophers to quote Jeffrey Archer in a published paper. It was from a Sunday newspaper feature. He said ‘It’s such a privilege having money. It gives you such freedom too.” (As G.A. Cohen points out: therefore capitalism is a society of unequal freedom.)

about balance, and it varies, and I feel like I'm being a diva. Then I have a layer in case Angie wants to make biscuits on my shoulder (ow), and a thinner layer in case Augie wants to sleep on my legs. It's all WAY BETTER than being too hot.

It varies. The other day was warm. I had the heat pump cooler on 71 degrees. Next morning, the heat pump was trying to warm my space. I have turned off the heat pump, and I'm wearing a sweater, but there will come that moment when the ceiling fan on Slowest will render my head too cold...It's all

I find it's best not to think of the mushrooms as a substitute for meat, which casts mushroom ragù as a sad understudy to some realer, more authentic thing. Mushrooms deserve better than that.…

It’s also probable 800 years of endemic plague has changed it, and us. There was an outbreak in Calcutta ~40 years ago; about a dozen people died, in a dense urban environment. So “The Sky is Falling” isn’t reasonable. COVID is still a bigger problem.

Yes, but… Pneumonic plague is basically fatal, if untreated but isn’t easily transmitted; and the contagion chain is easy to break. Bubonic plague is what did most of the killing; because rodents functioned (as they still do) as a reservoir. The western US is chock full of plague.
