Hurray! My blog finally reached the very last position of blog listings.

Well, not really the last, just the last on the front page of them.

I’ve just been quite busy lately, but that’s an easy excuse, as I am never not busy. I’m reading some of James Baldwin’s essays in preparation for my utopian paper on him, alternating with reading some of Ernst Bloch’s utopian musings on music in The Principles of Hope. Bloch is a trip: a Christian-mystic communist. Trying to wrap my head around some of his statements is as good as playing through a whole game of Brain-Age. Fun, but a bit tiring.
