im realizing that joan curated this collection in the midst of a very important historical moment in america that she couldnt have anticipated would be as sparsely documented as it ended up being and yet she was at the right places at the right times to capture feelings i think no one else was able to do at such a grand scale? she didnt probably realize the type of journalism she was doing at the time... neat...

just finished "on morality". i wonder what the goat would think about people's individualized morality post-Covid, where refusing to interact with anyone who lives differently than you is considered acceptable. its crazy how many people ive met who believe it is a genuine immoral act to want different things in life.

i can’t think of another time a book immediately captured my interest like this right after i finished one immediately before. i love when i don’t have school and i can read over the summer WOW! also, this book starts by talking abt how californians forget the past and only see the future and jakarta method ends on the same note #godyoulovemakingmefindmeaningineverything
