Cool. I didn't think you'd be putting off the next meeting until 2023.

As mentioned previously, the mood will be Patti Smith's Gloria, but also this:

[popvulture]

It's always Patti time. Always.

Good to meet/catch up with everyone tonight.  Following on from one part of the conversation, and because I'll have forgotten by the morning, Peter Frase's "Four Futures: Life After Capitalism is an interesting read (albeit a little more radical than I am).

[Matt]

I had a fantastic time as anticipated.

@neph93 you’ll need to do some light reading of you want to pholosophize with me in September…

[popvulture]

Lol a little light reading eh, @Matt ?

I've been reading Epictetus. Digging him.

Good times chatting with y'all today! I'll be on next time again for sure, provided I'm not out of town or something else I've forgotten about.

[goosehd]

Love and respect Guys!  Thank you…

[Joberwocky]

[Giles]

It will probably not surprise you that I am familiar with the modern nihlists. I can see the logic and appreciate the posistion, but there’s too much beauty in the world for me to subscribe to that way of thinking. Although it does remind me of one of my favourite poems… which may or may not be taken seriously. I’d imagine @ARNC  is familiar with a bit of Larkin. Thhe while poem is rather pertinent to our conversation the other night @goosehd

[Matt]

I don’t doubt it.  I just liked that one because the description is pretty bonkers.

[Matt]

I like the Larkin.

[neph93]

@Matt:

I like the Larkin.

Perfect poem imho. Funny story, he was nailed on to be Poet Laureate, and then he wrote that. Quite probably in the spirit of wilful self sabotage.
