    • There's not a lot of room for un-ironic emotion in contemporary culture. i think that irony is an important tool in dealing with the world as we find it. it's a tool of protection, but it can also be a tool of incision to get to some truth. but along the way maybe we've lost some of what i think of as the power of straightforward emotion and earnestness and seriousness.
    Thinking Ironic Important
    I change my keyboard between every book. i usually shop around. i'm very passionate about the physical feel of pressing the keys. it's got to have the right springiness. i tend to find the built-in keys very unsatisfying, the keys are low-profile and don't really do anything - i want it to feel like i'm typing.

    All the characters are made out of words. with reading, i understand that the people aren't real but the fact that they are made out of language and are made out of words is extremely powerful to me. it becomes transformative for me. different people have different ways of trying to make stories using language.
    Powerful Real Reading
    When we think of death, we often imagine it as happening in degrees: we think of a sick person becoming less and less alive until finally they are gone.
    Thinking Sick Degrees
    The miracle and hope of human consciousness is that we can still conceive of boundlessness.
    Miracle Consciousness Humans
    I think all true stories are hopeful stories. i don't think there's any room for nihilism.
    Thinking Hopeful Nihilism
    I think that it's a universal urge to have our pain not be felt alone and to have our joys not be felt alone.
    Pain Thinking Joy
    The universe is biased toward consciousness because the universe wants to be noticed. it's a way into existential hope that doesn't have too much cliché wrapped around it.
    Too Much Way Want
