This Louisiana Sun is something else — an opportunity, if you take it, or if you let it take you. Because when you let go, and let the music take over, you’ll find the jam is, at times, so soft and so tender, the meat just falls right off the bone. hookedoncreek.com/2022/05/epis...

Wherever it comes up in art or popular culture, the phrase “cruel world” seems to point to a fatalistic perspective on humanity in which events are inevitable. So for me, hearing the phrase “cruel world” demands an exploration through the lens of philosophy. hookedoncreek.com/2024/01/epis...
