reading parable of the sower by Octavia Butler and I really liked this bit on Noah: "God decides to destroy everything except Noah, his family, and some animals. But if Noah is going to be saved, he has plenty of hard work to do." such an important insight for all of us...

@TheresaZoe yep! I *really* enjoyed All The Way To Heaven (a collection of her personal letters) and I would also recommend Unruly Saint: Dorothy Day's Radical Vision and Its Challenge for Our Times by @d_l_mayfield

overheard someone talking about "house atreides", "arrakis", and the "padishah emperor" as I walked across campus and I immediately thought "maybe reading those 16 Brian Herbert books *wasn't* a complete waste of time" but my dudes, would you believe they didn't want to hear it?
