A beautiful portrait of the land I love in the American west, pitted against all ill and evil man can do. Really engaging set pieces, some of the best descriptions I’ve read, sprawling prose. The worst parts of being a man amidst beautiful and unforgiving country. Side note if you meet someone who says this book is “awesome”, run quickly.
Like 60% through. Just when it was getting a bit meandering, Mccarthy brought back my favorite character and used them for one off scenes that played like a Revenant-esque survival story. This is one of the best American novels I have ever read. I know that’s not a new take.
blood, guts, gore, and the wild wild west by cormac.
as a palette cleanser, the grandfather or alternative manga’s autobiographical masterpiece. Incredible read if you are curious about the history of manga, postwar japan, or the creative process of manga-making in general.
I think mountain lions are so cool, just thinking about them right now. If I could have a mountain lion as a companion I so would. They are beautiful creatures, iconic symbols of the American west, which I also love. If I ever saw one in the wild I would be so scared but later I’d think it was cool.
I have always been on selfies and yes it’s kinda embarassing and yes it’s kinda cringe but I think taking photos of ourselves in moments helps you feel like you have moments that are worth documenting AND you look good in them! Also funny factor on selfies is so good. Look at this selfie I took.
