"I think living in Uganda for so long you undergo a sort of habituation to the beautiful environment that constantly envelops you. Reading Ryszard's descriptions of a typical shamba envoke a special nostalgia associated with how I felt when I first set foot here, when everything was novel and newfangled. Its nice. "This is Uganda - lush, riotously overgrown, endlessly germinating, multiplying, and seething."" — Dec 17, 2025 06:03AM

"State fair essay was amazing and even though I'm not from the Midwest it sounds a lot like central pa (corn, conservatives, and coronaries). Read through the next one and it was a bit too heavy so gonna switch to a lighter read and come back to it" — Aug 24, 2025 12:26PM
