Het is weekend. Je mag
er wel gewoon met je poten thuis uiteraard naar kijken.
From the Greek of Plato.
Thou wert the morning star among the living,
Ere thy fair light had fled;--
Now, having died, thou art as Hesperus, giving
New splendour to the dead.
Prettig weekend. En be nice.

In today's newsletter, I go back to Ong-posting to try to answer the question of why grift is so out in the open these days. Why don't people feel shame and the impulse to obfuscate? Why don't other people react more judgmentally? pic.twitter.com/PGi18TDHzP

I'm not saying the emperor has no clothes. I am saying his clothes are cheap, tacky, don't work and are seriously overrated.
