I've folded this account into my primary Twitter. Please follow me @upstreamism instead. Thanks.

For the night crowd: I'm collapsing this account into my primary Twitter. From now on, follow me @upstreamism. Thanks.
If you want to see me write more about books, and you happen to be an editor, contact me. I'd love to write reviews/essay for other outlets.
I still want to write about books, but when Notable Reader comes back, I'll be linking to it from my primary handle, @upstreamism.
The blog hiatus will drag on longer than I planned. I've been getting more freelance work lately, which puts blog/design time at a premium.
Yeah, I know I did something of the sort not too long ago, splitting @cultureramp into these two accounts. I'm learning. It's a process.
I'm collapsing this account into my other account. Follow me over @upstreamism. I promise to talk about books there.

ICYMI, I talked about why it doesn't particularly matter who plays Batman onscreen: medium.com/geek-empire/6b27b…
220 pages is a perfectly civilized length for a novel.

For all his enmity regarding traditional philosophical dichotomies, Rorty sure seems willing to pit theory against narrative.
Basically, Rorty is the Woody Allen of academic philosophy.
Rorty's utopia is rooted in seeing "strange people as fellow sufferers," a culture of hope built on a world defined by misery.
As with most utopia, I say, good luck with that, Rortians.
Rorty: "A postmetaphysical culture seems to me no more impossible than a postreligious one, and equally desirable."
The death of the ingenue? I have my doubts, but the reprieve is appreciated: themillions.com/2013/08/the-…

This picture was intended to illustrate the "horrors" of suffrage, but damn if that doesn't look like an awesome bar

Theater is a human compact between bodies, breathing the same air, smelling the same smells, vowing to dream the same dream.
