Life in late capitalism can be vexing, alienating, fragmenting, and otherwise frustrating. There are many wonderful things in my life, but I'm more likely to talk about what's bad rather than what's good. I'm going to try to post one good thing here each day, and if you would join in by adding a good thing from your day in the comments, I'd love it--I'd absolutely love it. --RR
10/30: a good moment
...in an awkward day: I was at a faculty book discussion, and the person leading the discussion had us brainstorm under the categories thoughts, questions, and epiphanies. I mentioned that in children's literature people sometimes do something similar to get children talking about what they read by using the categories patterns, puzzles, and surprises. One of the other faculty at the meeting was interested by that because his son is reading but not necessarily processing what he's reading, and these categories might generate good discussions with him.
