Honey cake and Sprite.

People keep on using the analogy of an orchestra without a conductor while not mentioning every performer in the orchestra must be trained for years, even decades, to perform and since they are in a orchestra they must be sharing common music background, training, altitude, etc., while our society members only tried to figure out what is EU after Brexit became reality.

I think we should stop romanizing the effect of the movements and the grievances from the margin. Protest is the demonstration of anger, but it is also just an emotional drama. While not focusing on the solution, or destructive attempt, history would never progress.

A musician without instrument, only notes; this is what I think of the idea of the multitude. The left in the past few decades decapitated itself, cutting the "common" into tiny pieces we call minority group, gender, sexual orientation, migrant, and whatsoever but non of them has a clear plan to exercise what mind be necessary to the ordinary people.

The major issue is, lack of empirical evidence. One example is regarding the decentralized organization structure for resistance, and clearly all the examples provided actually failed to make substantial change, or simply, failed as being crashed entirely.

Reading it now, especially after the tariff drama (not finished), seems a little bit funny. Maybe this book was outdated since 2008?

Some of the very emotional chapters...

I'm surprised that Levin and Kitty was going to get married and Alexei suddenly forgave Anna when it's only... page 400, right in the middle?

It's very inspiring, but his style is very chattering, while I expect a more efficient delivery.

I guess a snow storm will never be the same after 'Master and Man'.

After finishing the first chapter we already saw a stepmother, an outcast people, an emperor seemed not very tolerant, I guess I'm really reading about something based on Mughal Empire. But Jah Irinah, which according to the map is my father's hometown, only had its first storm in a decade, puzzles me a lot.

Finished the first of the trilogy.
