Chapter II continues with an exploration into how fiction distills life rather than replicating it. The author insists that while a novel might appear complex on the surface, its strength often lies in its underlying simplicity. Great novels, like great paintings, use clear strokes that sharpen a specific human truth rather than crowding the canvas with every detail of reality. Through focused intention, fiction can illuminate the subtleties of emotion or the weight of circumstance with greater clarity…-

Chapter XVIII – The Compleat Angler draws attention to a selection of modest freshwater fishes often overlooked in favor of larger, more celebrated species. Yet Piscator, with his calm authority and love for nature, makes it clear that these smaller creatures contribute richly to the experience of fishing and the health of local waters. He discusses them not with dismissal, but with admiration for their resilience, charm, and usefulness. The Minnow, first among them, is given a generous description. It…-

53. Starship
Starship was born out of Elon Musk’s deep-rooted aspiration to make humanity an interplanetary species, a goal that required a spacecraft far beyond the capabilities of the Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy. While those rockets had revolutionized spaceflight through reusability, they were ultimately insufficient for the scale of Mars colonization that Musk envisioned. In response, he launched an ambitious project originally called the BFR (Big F**king Rocket), later rebranded as Starship, a fully reusable rocket…-

Tea and Angst
Tea and Angst were pervasive throughout Charleston on April 13, as the city grappled with the heavy tension in the air. Despite the relief experienced the previous evening when it was reported that no Confederate troops had been injured during the bombardment, the reality of the ongoing conflict remained undeniable. The day began with a burst of sunlight after the morning rain, which only illuminated the rising columns of black smoke from Fort Sumter. The Union fleet’s inaction, with ships stationed just…-
