Welcome to the Future Nauseous – A discussion of how we understand, adapt to, and digest the "future". Dark, but rings deeply true. Explicates a lot of half-formed thoughts I've had for a long time https://www.ribbonfarm.com/2012/05/09/welcome-to-the-future-nauseous/ …pic.twitter.com/wGGTDEq8jn

Universal Love, Said The Cactus Person – A surprisingly literary meditation from SSC on rationality and meaning. Has a levity and humor that I love http://slatestarcodex.com/2015/04/21/universal-love-said-the-cactus-person/ …pic.twitter.com/1vFM4xviuH

I've been struggling to read books lately—feels like the density of fantastic articles makes it hard to go back. Either way, hope you find something you enjoy reading amongst this bunch!
