“Servings at the cosmic banquet are never fair [...]
In the apportionment of more nebulous prizes, like social status, success, and days of life, nobody gets everything they want. Most people get nothing at all. Their servings come only from the jar of pain.”

February 2023: “But a year into the full-fledged invasion, it was also clear that Ukraine had won the war for its independence. It wasn’t certain in what borders the country would remain, with or without Bakhmut or the Azov Sea coastline. Bloody battles lay ahead. But Ukraine wasn’t going to disappear from the map once again. It wasn’t going to be swallowed and digested by Russia. This, by itself, was worth celebrating.”
