  1. warms the cockles of my bureaucratic heart to see a team of competent workers swoop in, protect other workers, and prevent losses for debtors (while realizing losses for risk takers): this must be what it feels like to “send in the troops”

  3. silly nonsense update, i’ve completed the seventy or eighty prologues to The Museum of Eterna’s Novel (The First Good Novel) by Macedonio Fernández and would like to congratulate myself for not posting out of context paragraphs of it this entire time like this one, which it is full of. now to start the novel itself

    three paragraphs of mid prologue boasting, thanking readers of bad posts for staying committed to reading posts while waiting for the first good post to come along, of which this is but one of dozens of prologues, and thanking the bad posters for posting all the bad posts, which keep said readers reading, because this is why they will still be readers who read said first good post

  4. seventh book: “Good Strategy Bad Strategy: The Difference and Why It Matters” by Richard P. Rumelt.

    Read this one for work and had a few people I’m “doing strategy” at work with read it too. They generally like it a lot so far.

    I’m a big hater of most business (generally: airport) books full of hindsight, anecdote cherry picking and etc. This one has all of those things, but reads more like a memoir, which helps a lot. Anyway, I finished it. Parts were good, even.
