notes on the text

That's a great article xyz. I wish I'd started something like that all those years ago, even if I suspect it'd be a rambling, half-arsed mess.

My notetaking is a shambles and it pains me how much I've lost, have trapped in books/on bits of paper, buried in Evernote. I *think* I'm OK with a certain amount of entropy, to be honest, as I'm not even really sure what all the notetaking is even for. I used to have pretensions of being a writer but really, who am I kidding? And the project of simply becoming a better human with a semi-coherent philosophy is loose enough for it not to really matter, I suppose. Eh. Maybe I'll just go back to the sticks and tortoise shell.
