Subjective Visual Perception

...my favorite word is movement. I love the way sugar tastes when it's sprinkled on a lemon, and the sound of your voice when my head is lying on your chest. I wish it were raining. Or that the sun was shining on the sea

“ So far, most of the eulogies of Christopher have come from men, and there’s a reason for that. He moved in a masculine world, and for someone who prided himself on his wide-ranging interests, he had virtually no interest in women’s writing or women’s lives or perspectives. I never got the impression from anything he wrote about women that he had bothered to do the most basic kinds of reading and thinking, let alone interviewing or reporting—the sort of workup he would do before writing about, say, G.K. Chesterton, or Scientology or Kurdistan. It all came off the top of his head, or the depths of his id. Women aren’t funny. Women shouldn’t need to/want to/get to have a job. The Dixie Chicks were “fucking fat slags” (not “sluts,” as he misremembered later). And then of course there was his 1989 column in which he attacked legal abortion and his cartoon version of feminism as “possessive individualism.” I don’t suppose I ever really forgave Christopher for that.

The Nation: Regarding Christopher - Katha Pollitt (via camplittlewolf)

Um, fucking WORD. Not to mention he was an unapologetic racist (Islamic).

FINALLY just because the guy wrote brilliantly and boldly about being an atheist (not a mindset I share by the way) does not make him some beacon of genius. Plus I always found him to be kind of a douchebag in every interview I ever read with him
