Book Reading/2026

14 Jan 2026 - 18 Jul 2026

Emptiness and Omnipresence Jan 4th, 2026 mind blown

What Tech Calls Thinking, Adrian Daub Jan 14th, 2026

critique of SV culture by a Stanford humanities guy. Nothing I hadn't heard before, so a waste of time. Builds a bit on From Counterculture to Cyberculture but not in a very interesting way

Moby Dick via MDC, mind blown again, Feb 25th, 2026

Also diving into some of the critical literature, incl All Things Shining, Zen and the White Whale, Harold Bloom volume, others.

Smax, Alan Moore (graphic, lightweight, fun) Mar 2nd, 2026

How God Becomes Real

Embracing Alienation

The Cheating Cell

The Great When, Alan Moore. May 4th, 2026 in the hospital. Have to say I didn't quite get into this and so it took a long time to finish. It's very Alan Moore.

Furious Minds, Laura K Field. On the rise of the right and ample treatment of Yarvin. Just skimmed, because I realize I am utterly tired of all these assholes and they are not the least bit interesting.

Fever Beach, Carl Hiassen. Good hospital read May 12th, 2026

Mathematica, David Bessis [May ?, hospital]

Exadelic, Jon Evans Jul 3rd, 2026

The Netanyahus, Joshua Cohen Jul 15th, 2026

There is Nothing Wrong With You Jul 18th, 2026
