"So I've been watching parts of the movie alongside my progress in the book and I didn't realize just how much is cut out of the movie! I now resonate with the geeks who always moaned and groaned "the book is better! The book is better"
It's me, I'm the geeks." — 14 hours, 21 min ago

"Literally light reading before bed lol. I've been using this as a night time devotional. And hmm it seems I haven't tired of reading/contemplating death and my impending experience of it.
It's riveting and makes me feel terribly uncomfortable yet safe (and thrilled)?... completely out of my control yet remembering my death is the only true purpose to my finite life in view of my eternal one" — Dec 29, 2025 04:33PM

“Once he knows what you want, he’ll figure out how to tempt you,” Ronodin said. “Beguile you. Ensnare you. Destroy you.”
“God Almighty first planted a garden: and indeed it is the purest of human pleasures.”

“We must not be frightened nor cajoled
into accepting evil as deliverance from evil.
We must go on struggling to be human,
though monsters of abstraction
police and threaten us.
Reclaim now, now renew the vision of
a human world where godliness
is possible and man
is neither gook nigger honkey wop nor kike
but man
permitted to be man.”
