Oh, great — just what I need. Even more quality Substacks to subscribe to! No worries, though. I'm enjoying it all, every word, every post. If only there were more than 24 hours in a day...
Wow, damn man, I'm honored. Many thanks for the kind words and for the award. I shall treasure it. Don't know what to say. Really made my day.
I was *just* reading the Greer piece you linked a couple days ago, it was in AmSun's Winners Losers and Links (I suspect we may have found it in the same place). I agree it was superlative, both for the insight into the birth of traditionalism in the occult milieu of the early twentieth century, and for the exposition of Guenon's thought.
Dayne's piece looked interesting, so I clicked through, realized I am already subscribed - I think Saxon Cross also mentioned him in his shout-out piece a week or so ago - then as I was realizing this, I got an email announcing Dayne's most recent piece. A synchronicity.
Edited to add: of course I sleep. Every other day, for thirty minutes before the sun rises, in between caffeine highs.
There are no such things as coincidences, haha. Which is funny enough something we discussed on Arthur Dayne's podcast all the way back in 2021. Only synchronicities. And I am beginning to form a belief that we call synchronicities are rather like focussing points or "nodes" in the fabric of spacetime where different people and paths converge.
You're absolutely right, I stopped reading Greer for a few months as I was busy, but seeing that link in last week's AmSun roundup really reminded me just how good he is.
Indeed, I don't believe in coincidences either, anymore than I believe in randomness. The two concepts are related of course ... Shorthand ways of describing all the things we can't control, which we comfort ourselves by telling ourselves nothing controls them. Much of philosophy comes down to a debate between luck and fate.

Thank you for being here.

You're most welcome John.

And re: the sleep. That explains a lot.

Thank you Alex 🤝🏻
You're always welcome
💬 Bo Winegard at Aporia has a gentle reminder on five reasons why we should talk about race differences.
Jeez egad sheesh, they’re entire 6! How dare ya not count the zeroth which is a starkly peremptory “Because it is true.” 🤦😱
Ty, a truly fascinating read! 🤩 If it doesn’t persuade overcautious misguided do-gooder fence-sitters... well, nuthin will.
Yes, hello
Hello yes. I'm a fan of your work.
> Expertise is not the problem. It is that our experts lie, constantly, about everything, for no good reason.
The problem is that these are not "our" experts.
These are "their" experts, selected to promote the agenda of the parasitic overclass.
Great roundup of recommended reads
