Daniel Quinn

Someone at the NYT asked me during the Apple stuff what book I read that changed me. I picked Ishmael by Daniel Quinn-- I read it when I was in 7th grade (voluntarily 😂). It taught me about the idea of cultural superiority: mainly our relationship with our living universe.

George Orwell

@Apple In 1984, George Orwell wasn't warning us about the dystopian future of government control. He was sharing an allegory of the relationship between the British government, the monarchy, and the tabloids. E.B. White warned it would extend to corporations. https://t.co/jy8geZ6ItW

"With great power comes great responsibility." - Stan Lee Sartre & Nietszche & Voltaire also circled around this idea. What does it really mean? Nietszche wanted us to see that to overcome our suffering was to harness the great power of will. To turn our inner chaos into art.

Very excited for tomorrow. "Station Eleven" by Emily St. John Mandel arrives, and I'm transforming my mornings to include at least 30 min of reading OFFLINE. My mornings currently consist of tarot cards, writing, and doom-scrolling. Inspired by @EmmaBostian and @sarah_edo.
