Why should progressives accommodate conservatives' need to be socially accepted, when conservatives refuse to allow "others" to be socially accepted.

If the conservatives want people to be friendly with them, then they need to stop being so actively hostile to people.

@JuliusGoat does a much better job explaining this idea in this essay:

Your comment reminded me of an essay entitled, "Alex Jones and the kitten burners" which describes some people's need to someone in order to feel good about themselves. And the problems that can lead to.

"They need to feel 'better-than' more than they want to be simply good"

Ever been anxious in social situations?

This essay compresses nearly 50 years of dealing with moderate social anxiety and finding ways to respond to it that are based on mindfulness. I hope it's helpful to someone out there.

My latest at Homo Vitruvius, on Substack.

"Recognizably, Wilson’s essay is a meditation on going home again, on not being able to go home again, and on finding home having lodged itself, nonetheless, irremovably, melancholically, irresolvedly inside you."

Once upon a time (back in the 90s) I made a cross-country move to Los Angeles. Four years ago I wrote about that very strange journey.

In This Essay I Will: On Distraction theparisreview.org/blog/2023/0

'From Elements, a portfolio by Roger Vieillard in issue no. 16 (Spring–Summer 1957).

I began writing this essay while putting off writing another one. My apartment is full of books I haven’t read, and others I read so long ago that I barely remember what’s in them. When I’m writing something, I’m often tempted to pick one up that has nothing to do with my subject. I’ve always wanted to read this, I think, idly flipping through, my eyes fixing on a stray phrase or two. Maybe it will give me a new idea.'

These last days of hot summer and holidays in Spain, I have been delving into the history of clothing from the wonderful book "Ropa vieja" by Ana Velasco Molpeceres. Very enjoyable and easy to read anytime!
