Lynch telling it like it is. Viewers and readers often think they know how long something should be. The length is what the length is. Even bad stuff. Lots of reason to critique bad stuff. But, "It could've been shorter" is just not a critique. It's a projection. www.instagram.com/reel/DSQDrAt...

This is fundamental and key, imo, with regards to capturing ideas in a zettelkasten even when you can't express or even comprehend them completely. It's Luhmann's "septic tank" idea. The value of an idea comes later, in relationship to other ideas.
Timely and on point. When I get responses on Reddit that "post-structuralism and anything that came from it is *poison*", (like I did a month ago), Malabou's words ring in my ear. (listen to the first ten min if nothing else).

Looking for alternatives to Amazon for selling the digital format of A System for Writing. I'm only aware of Gumroad. Anyone have suggestions? Especially grateful if you've used the service for selling ebooks yourself and can speak to its ease of set-up.
