I recently moved to Oregon coast from NYC & was expecting huge culture shock. It hasn’t set in yet, but I have been enjoying the quiet, cool weather and/on sunny days, & somehow less rain than NYC (where they’re having flood warnings?!). But let me check back in once the rainy season is here.

There was a marching band at the NYC march today & that was a LOT of fun.

Reading John Lewis’s original draft of his speech for the 1963 March on Washington. This stands out as entirely true today.

“We cannot depend on any political party, for both the Democrats and the Republicans have betrayed the basic principles of the Declaration of Independence.”

I’m really enjoying Sittenfeld’s latest short story collection.

This week’s newsletter from Bloomsbury Literary Studies has some particularly interesting books on the rhetoric of deception & trolling.
