I’ve been thinking a lot about our culture lately. A bunch of different people have brought the subject up, in thorough essays and general conversations. Not just any culture, but not a limited view of culture either. What is interesting me most right now is how we can change the culture that exists, and develop new culture.

I’ve got a lot of anger brewing lately, so I’m a bit rash at the moment. But I think I’m controlling it admirably, at least most of the time.
