Ana went to the eye specialist today, and we found out that the reason her pupils are always huge like this is that she has retinal atrophy and has lost most of her vision. It's irreversible, but it's unlikely to get any worse.

And in other personal news today, I found out that my job is going away

The introduction to the Le Guin book was so good that I sought out its author's other work. I strongly suggest going into this one cold and getting swept up in what the story becomes. #JustRead

And with this volume, I have now read every Peanuts strip ever published. How many of us are there who can say that? A few thousand? #EliteStatus #JustRead

A graphic novel about the intersection (or not) of Brutalist architecture, so-called progress, and revolutionary fervor in the capital of Albania. The feverish, scribbly art makes it surprisingly propulsive. #JustRead (last weekend)

It just occurred to me that this recurring motif is Schulz's version of a plop take

We're doing the "three spirits" thing again? All right

Share a 90s movie you think deserves more love...

(Caveat: I haven't seen it since the '90s and reserve the right to change my answer if it doesn't hold up)

A movie that takes place where you're from

Filmed in a neighboring town. A few of my high school friends appear on screen.

Crazy, but that's how it goes
Millions of people living as foes
Maybe it's not too late
To learn how to love and forget how to hate
