Staying up until 7am reading "The Exorcist" to avoid sleeping in the dark, torturing myself with my own imagination, novels that are able to cast a spell despite already seeing the film adaptation, correlations between "The Queen's Gambit" on Netflix and Stephen King's novel "Carrie," going on a grumpy hike, the dangers of consuming outrage, the case for keeping parts of your life private, social media making you feel accountable to everyone you've every met in your life, the overeagerness of strangers to connect on social media, equating cancel culture to The Twilight Zone, no one wanting to hear a white dude with a podcast commenting on the state of culture, and looking forward to reading "Shibumi" by Trevanian.
