Reader Beware

January 26, 2022

Any of these might offend, so I figured I’d do them all the same day:


If you’re uncomfortable with atheism:

> Skip the late Christopher Hitchens’ otherwise unmissable opening statement.

(Infallibility has always held great appeal, relieving us, as it does, of the need to think.  He alone can fix it.)

> Skip, also, last week’s word from Mr. Deity.

(I’m new to Mr. Deity.  He got his start a dozen years ago when he introduced Eve to the Garden of Eden.)


If you’re a cultist:

> Skip The Cult of Masked Schoolchildren.

(“History will not look kindly on our evidence-free decision to make kids suffer most.”)

> Skip, also, The Cult of  Mike Lindell.

(Really funny — and still relevant a half year later, as tens of millions remain on board.)


If drag rubs you wrong:

> Skip America Needs A Queen: Drag Queens Do Democracy . . . And Sports! 

(Timed to open the Winter Olympics, it benefits Field Team 6. Tickets ten bucks and up.)


If you’re altogether wholesome:

> Skip Alan Cumming’s wonderful but sporadically X-rated Baggage: Tales from a Fully Packed Life, read by the actor himself.



There you have it.

Quote of the Day

"Midas called himself a happy man, but felt he was not yet quite so happy as he might be. The very tip-top of enjoyment would not be reached, unless the whole world were to become his treasure room, and be filled with yellow metal which should be all his own."

Nathaniel Hawthorne (King Midas and the Golden Touch)
