Enjoy this brilliant essay by Greg Olear on "Heart of Darkness", by Joseph Conrad, and the beautifully nuanced reflex to the now.
I started reading with my defenses for Conrad on full, and I was surprised and happy that did not need them.

The amazing story of Eric Roberts' undercover work during #WorldWarTwo
ℹ In the early part of #WW2 #MI5 learned that a group of fascist-minded people in #Britain, all with strong pro- #German or #Nazi sympathies, were considering what they might do to oppose the #war effort
Many of them had been members of Oswald Mosley’s #British Union of #Fascists (BUF) but had left it finding it insufficiently proactive ⤵

Got a Sunday email flashback feature from @dublininquirer “In Dublin, a neighbourhood boundary is sometimes more a feeling than a line.” Since I’m out southside rn having a coffee on Killiney Hill, I’m thinking of the unclear lines of my childhood between Cabinteely/ Killiney/ Ballybrack/ Dalkey/ Sallynoggin/ Monkstown/ Dun Laoghaire/ Glenageary. But IYKYK 😅😶🌫️🫥https://dublininquirer.com/2021/09/29/in-dublin-a-neighbourhood-boundary-is-sometimes-more-a-feeling-than-a-line/ #DublinInquirer #SundayRead #Southside #Dublin #Mastodaoine #PropertyPrices #Neighbourhood #Neighborhood

🎶I've put BBC Sounds chill out anthems on while I catch up on Mastodon post replies.
