I've been *reading*. School's out, and I'm getting cravings to read books and talk about them. So first I finished The Gun Seller, which I'd started just after Christmas and never got through. It was acceptably entertaining, but I'd forgotten all the minor characters and the complicated web of secret identities and how they all relate... I like

I really need to get back into trying to sleep my way through a second (English Criticism) and third (Philosophy) degree.

I doubt I grok even half of Barthes and I definitely grok less than a tenth of Baudrillard. Getting some theory into me would hopefully assuage that.

We could be English Criticism buddies someday.
Like, if you wait a year or two we could get that degree together! *Possibly.*

hey polly do you know how to find the inverse function of
y = 3 + x + e^x

i don't know what the fuck

I kind of forget... I think for inverses you just switch the x and y.

So
x = 3 + y + e^y
... but I don't think you can isolate y from that.
