I've only ever descended that track after running to the top of Carn Laith via Carn na Moine and both times the monotony has caused me to almost trip on a rock or drainage ditch.
Woke before dawn and listened to Γliane Radigueβs Trilogie de la Mort in the gloom. I canβt remember the last time Iβve been so spiritually altered by sound.

Clearly Claude has been trained on my shitty writing.
A screenshot of the Polymarket website showing a prediction market titled "Nuclear weapon detonation by...?" under the Geopolitics and Ukraine categories. The market displays three betting options with their current probabilities and "Buy Yes" or "Buy No" prices: "March 31" at 5%, "June 30" at 12%, and "Before 2027" at 22%. The total trading volume shown is over $843,000.
Polymarket has created a betting market on the use of nuclear weapons. Everyone involved in this should be put in prison for life.

After a year, I've finally finished working through Thomas Burnett Swann's 16 fantasy novels. Here's my essay on his last novel, CRY SILVER BELLS, a fitting end to his career published more than a year after his death from cancer in 1976.
What a ride it has been discovering this brilliant writer!
So many meetings, not enough writing.
Dare I ask about your toolings and workflow for this and Spite?
I genuinely only have a vague idea what my phone's ring tone is. I even recently set it to permanently be on do not disturb, so only actually important things can bother me.
This essay by Jynne Dilling for @nplusonemag.com is a lovely homage to the late and deeply lamented Michael Silverblatt ... and to serious, patient literary culture generally.

Yeah, I think the next two weeks are going to be a deep rest.
It seems like everyday is Monday.
Holy shit I'm exhausted.
Maybe. Surprised there wasn't a section about the ethics of using one's qualification to publicly comment on someone else's heath condition. Maybe that's protected under the first amendment.
Part of my ongoing crusade to get people to read M John Harrison because holy shit.

In the early 60s JG Ballard wrote a story called Studio 5, The Stars, in which creatives put prompts into the "Verse Transcriber" to get a tickertape of poetry or other writings. They live in a very comfortable dystopia: privileged but bored.
