I’m convinced at this point that Trump supporters with brains, hearts, and eyes pull a Mike Johnson and don’t actually watch him as a subconscious prophylactic against the truth.

Me in September: That article? I'll write it during January break.
Me in October: That review? I'll write it in January.
Me in November: Spring syllabi? That's what January's for.
Me in December: Whew, I'm burnt out. But I can catch my breath during break.
Me in January: Ooops.

New Publication: β€œThe Pilgrim’s Progress as Marvel Comic,” in Angelica Duran and Katherine Calloway’s Global Milton and Visual Art.

This was a fun one to write! Christian is on soteriological steroids.

It was a meeting,
Led by two idiots,
Full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

It’s kind of wonderful that the first British edition of This Is Shakespeare mixes up Lysander and Demetrius just like the rest of us do.

My heart leaps up when I walk
A college campus at start of fall:
So was it when a freshman student;
So is it now I am a professor;
So be it when I shall grow old,
Or let me retire!

The author teaches ethics but thinks the humanities has nothing to do with his work? Ever heard of medical humanities? Leveraging Levitical purity laws is particularly offensive. The solution to unprecedented attacks on the university system is not every discipline for itself.
