Book is done. A very interesting read, this challenged some of my beliefs in an intellectual and persuasive fashion.

You can’t even comprehend the amount of working I’ve been failing to do. Oh also could you look over my business letter draft.

Going into the internet now. They didn't mention Reddit in their list of social media sites, which seems odd.

"Education should not be intended to make people comfortable; it is made to make them think." - Hanna Holborn Gray (Also page 51 of this book)

Even when I don't agree with this book, the act of thinking about what it says is making me smarter.

So far an interesting read. Formulated a bunch of arguments for the debate.

Ok, going into this book now. Also read another seven New York Times articles today, because apparently nunchucks got unbanned in New York and this matters I guess?
