"But neither my mother nor I lost interest in the movies as a whole. We simply burrowed deeper into the past. She watched T.C.M. throughout the day and into the night; I increasingly spent my time writing about the old classics. There were enough riches there to last a lifetime."

"She would have had no way of knowing it at the time, but when my mother was coming of age in Sioux City, Iowa, in the 1950s and early 1960s, she was living through the last great golden age of motion pictures," writes Peter Tonguette. thelampmagazine.com/issues/issue-2…
This was a weird little piece that I worked on, in some form or other, for about a year. Was it worth it? I don't know. But here it is, anyway, in @thelampmagazine's latest print number. Equal and Opposite | @thelampmagazine thelampmagazine.com/issues/issue-2…

Excellent @NicXTempore on David Brooks, Arthur Brooks and the old American fantasy - never more popular than now? - of individual emancipation from the tyranny of class thelampmagazine.com/issues/issue-2…
Here I look at the strange zone where David Brooks and Arthur Brooks meet. thelampmagazine.com/issues/issue-2…
"The funny thing—I know this from personal experience—is that as soon as you start treating the spiritual life as an arena for self-improvement separate from any serious notion of God or sin, of heaven or hell, the way to despair is short." @NicXTempore thelampmagazine.com/issues/issue-2…

Great essay @thelampmagazine by @TPCarney from his new book "Family Unfriendly." My brood of 5 is getting to point where travel teams are available and we have had to make the choices described in here. Looking forward to reading the book. thelampmagazine.com/issues/issue-2…

"The Travel Team Trap is easy for any parent to fall into. One need not be an achievement-obsessed parent or a dad living vicariously through his son in order to get caught up in over-competitive youth sports," writes @TPCarney thelampmagazine.com/issues/issue-2…
Fantastic article “People like Somner are not the heroes of history, but they have their place in it: the men and women who rescue what can be rescued and cherish it, and trust that better times will come.”

I wrote about some pretty weird books—out from paywall now at The Lamp
"If you’re still interested in telling heads from tails in the Book of the New Sun, you’ll inevitably resort to secondary literature, which ranges from helpful glossaries and plot summaries to speculation that looks, respectfully, a little nuts." @CMccafe thelampmagazine.com/issues/issue-2…
"Unsure and unreal describes most of [Gene] Wolfe’s fiction. Impossible to interpret straightaway, it always has an additional twist, another hat to drop, a corner you didn’t think to look in."

I spoke up against the horrors of Bowls of Food in the latest @thelampmagazine and now the pro-Bowl crowd is doubling down…
i'm sensing the beginnings of a growing reaction against bowlfood so i need to speak up. i'm radically pro-bowl, we haven't gone close to far enough. we must mix the meal of the medieval peasant with the luxury of global agriculture to make bowls the world has never seen
ICYMI, I wrote about the best opening in chess for @thelampmagazine
“After 7:30 a.m., when my children rise, thoughts and words take flight, leaving behind a sort of high-pitched hum that lasts until 8 p.m. … It is not moralizing when I tell people that by 7 a.m. the day is pretty much over.” A morning person’s manifesto: thelampmagazine.com/blog/the-shape…
"This is a radically restricted view of our well-being. According to it, most of any human life is preparation or decline..." thelampmagazine.com/issues/issue-2…

Grateful to @PodcastPsyche for this discussion of Byung-Chul Han's Non-things (@politybooks) and my recent essay on Han for @thelampmagazine. We talk religion, contemplation, the war for our attention, consumerism, gnarly old houses, jukeboxes, and much else.
@StevenEKnepper and I discuss his recent article on the contemplative philosophy/spirituality of Byung-Chul Han as well as exploring Han's book Non-Things. quiqueautrey.com/podcast/episod…

Love this piece by @ClarkeMicah. Especially since I had a very similar experience as a child, in my case with a battered old set of the Encyclopedia Britannica, the 14th edition, from 1929.
"This insularity does not mean I am not interested in the world beyond the sea. It just means I do not wish to go there and hope that it stays safely where it is." @ClarkeMicah thelampmagazine.com/blog/the-eyes-…
