I have thoughts but am on vacation

I liked this, gobbled it right up. I like the overall message of not over-relying on categories & patterns, but I also worry about the era of “epistemic chaos” we’re in right now - and I know that has nothing to do with the point of this book, so I’m giving it a genuine 4/5. There are so many lovely moments of looking at stuff from a trick mirror view in this book, or a one-way mirror, or a parallel universe… the unimportance of you is the importance of you. “I’m happy just because I found out I am really no one.”
