People have asked me what the opposite of a longhouse is. Maybe something like this, from Hutton Webster’s 1904 book “Primitive Secret Societies” https://t.co/JZR8WEVGpv

Fight Club

Chuck Palahniuk

It's here. @titusfilm and I discuss the seminal Gen-X movie Fight Club and it's relevance to this thing of ours: masculinity, violence, anonymity, "therapy," the Longhouse, etc. As Pahlaniuk writes: "What you see at Fight Club is a generation of men raised by women." https://t.co/14epVHVoVN

The Puglist at Rest

Thom Jones
LomezLomez

On the occasion of Memorial Day I am going to share one of my favorite modern short stories, "Pugilist at Rest" by Thom Jones. It strings together elegiac war writing, reflections on Schopenhauer and Dostoevsky, and a historical lesson on the greatest of all fighters, Theogenes.
