From The Gulag Archipeligo by Solzhenitsyn. In the Soviet Union, the experts were tried and executed and the know-nothings were in charge. Sound familiar?

My beef with how the Kobo app works on the Boox Palma: Even though I have bought and downloaded the book, I can't open the app to read without going online. This uses more battery. I can go offline right after I open it, but WTF? The Kindle app doesn't require this.

Solzhenitstyn, in The Gulag Archipelago, listing the mildest tactics of Soviet interrogation:
Police in the United States are also permitted to lie to obtain confessions. I had one case recently where the cop was bold enough to put it in his police report.

A great book to read right now. As the purges begin, it’s easy to project they’ll continue on to something like this. Russia was a vast, racially diverse country, famous for culture: literature, music, theater, dance. An agricultural giant too. Look what happened.
Gulags in Greenland?

There’s a lot of absurd humor in Will Eno’s plays. Also, a lot of sudden hits of genuine, raw feeling. Eno is a playwright that will always make you laugh, but keep you off balance and make you feel strong emotions.
