Marginalia
Comments on books, passages, lectures, and ideas.
A space for shorter intellectual notes: comments on specific passages, book chapters, lectures, videos, arguments, metaphors, and ideas that I want to preserve while thinking.
Why this section exists
Not every thought needs to become a full essay. Some ideas deserve to be captured while they are still alive: a passage in a book, a sentence from a lecture, a scientific argument, a metaphor, a cultural pattern, or a conceptual tension.
For example, while reading Sapiens, I may use this section to comment on a specific chapter or conceptual move without turning every reflection into a complete essay.
Longer developed pieces will belong in Essays. Systematic book syntheses will belong in Reading or Notes. Scientific article analysis will belong in Papers.
