“The past is never dead. It’s not even past. All of us labor in webs spun long before we were born, webs of heredity and environment, of desire and consequence, of history and eternity.” William Faulkner, born 25th September 1897

I loved getting to edit Josh at Vox - in addition to being a great colleague, he had an amazing knack for being ahead of things. Some of my favorites…

Sad to say that my position as World correspondent at Vox was eliminated as part of today’s restructuring. It was a great job and I’ll miss my colleagues there.

Aw, damn. Another American legend gone — RIP Annie Dillard, Meditative Author of ‘Pilgrim at Tinker Creek,’ Dies at 81 nytimes.com/2026/09/16/books…

Annie Dillard, Meditative Author of ‘Pilgrim at Tinker Creek,’ Dies at 81

Her Thoreau-like account of journeys in the woods, published when she was 28, was the first of many ruminations on life and nature, good and evil.

The thing I love about photography is that it teaches you how to see. Slow looking pays dividends: the longer you stay with ordinary things, the less ordinary they become.

I love the look of books, the feel of them, the smell of them, the endless mad stacks and shelves of them. It’s a tangible, emotional history with objects that we can never have with digital alternatives.
