7:00 PM View: Not in WJ!


 I’m not going to WJ this weekend.  I am volunteering for the Jiangyin half-marathon.

What is WJ?  Well the stupid poopy pants A.I. doesn’t know!  But I’m sure that there is a rare loyal visitor of this blog who does know what it is.  If you don’t, I’ll give you a clue:  J is for Jiangsu.

Any who!  I have an exciting evening planned.  I will do some reading and podcast listening.  I’ll spend time with Z-Man.  In the episode, I’m listening to, he is discussing why he isn’t an ideologue.  I’ll give one example of how he isn’t.  He talked about how he was watching a cooking show and seeing the cook say that a dish he was preparing was good for the environment.  That cook was being an ideologue.  Ideologues, said the Z-Man only think there is one way to do and think about anything in life.  Thinking about this and reading his book Values I can see that its author Mark Carney is an ideologue.  Carney thinks that governments have to fight climate change.

I’ll listen then to the Red Scare Podcast.  Anna & Dasha will review a book by Andrea Dworkin.  A & D talk like girls and reactionaries like me enjoy their common sense and witty views.

I’ll read some Nicolas Gomez Davila, Czeslaw Milosz, St. Francis of Sales and Coventry Patmore.

Here is a photo of the moon.
