I’ve finished this introductory course on Classical Chinese. I enjoyed it and would tentatively recommend it, but I’ll have a firmer opinion once I start attempting to read the Classics without Lewis’s help. I think my next step will be a study of some specific work.https://history.stanford.edu/publications/chinese-philosophical-texts

I took the family to Half Price Books over the weekend. There were a few books by Ezra Pound (which I already had), as well as these two books of criticism.They also had this French edition of Les Misérables, including a stamp and receipt from Shakespeare and Company. The previous owner bought it there in May 2023 and, judging by the book’s condition, didn’t read it.

We also got a few books for our children, but not many. HPB often charges only marginally less for their books (and DVDs, etc.) than they typically cost new. The ones I got were worthwhile because they’re uncommon here, they had a sale, and we had a little money from selling a few books there.

@MK2boogaloo I think they’re a few years away from Lovecraft, lol. The oldest is at more of a Brambly Hedge reading level. I do have Library of America’s collection of some of his stories, though, which I’m sure they’ll grow into eventually.

@teto I’m not happy to learn that central Texas weather is basically Indonesian.

@teto yeah, I saw this earlier and thought the style looks off somehow.Also, my understanding is that they would’ve been studying the Greek Septuagint, not Hebrew.

I’ve published eight posts in the first five months of the year. My blogging goal for 2026 was to average two per month, so I’m behind pace but not too bad. I just need to get a little better at making time to write. A few of those posts have been fairly long, too, but I have some ideas for posts that should be relatively short.One problem lately is that I’ve been using what would’ve been blogging time on a project that makes me money, which I suppose is a good problem to have, really.

@grips even in ZUN’s art, she doesn’t look like she has large breasts to me. My assumption has always been that those come from fanartists and their preferences.

I’ve drafted a new post, a short review of a book that should’ve been much better than it is, but it has a gimmick that wears thin after one chapter. I’ll likely publish it in a few days.
