When I had to vacate my library, due to emigrating, I tried to give my local library my complete Kierkegaard collection. They wouldn’t take it. Told they don’t take book donations, only cash. 😡
Proof?
When the Beverly Hills Supper Club in northern Kentucky US burned down, a performer ran on stage and told everyone that the place was on fire and they needed to evacuate.
Most of the corpses were found seated at their tables.
When I'm feeling outnumbered and the whole of the world has gone seemingly crazy i enjoy a movie night with The Adventures of Baron Munchausen. Just the magic I need to get me back on track.

I was blown away by the CBC yesterday who did interviews with Republicans in the Southern U.S.They were questioned on what they thought about Trump’s comments on the 51st state and Greenland. They said he was just joking, it’s his sense of humour.
Unbelievable.

Although to be fair, Soren was always kind of a downer
“I have just now come from a party where I was its life and soul; witticisms streamed from my lips, everyone laughed and admired me, but I went away and wanted to shoot myself.”
Kierkegaard had a rich theology that believed in redemption on the deepest level. One must read all his books to understand that he saw a great range of human experience, and in so doing bore witness to deep sorrow, yes, but also the joy of salvation, unfashionable as that is.
Reminds me of a short parable by Kafka, in which leopards break into a temple and drink all the ceremonial wine. After they do it several more times, the leopards are made part of the ceremony.
