Fiddling While Rome Burns

Meet inside The Shops at Waterloo Town Square—we will congregate in the seating area with the trees sticking out in the middle of the benches at 7pm for 15 minutes, and then head over to the amenity room in my nearby apartment.

Activity

My most popular posts are very long and dense, but if you’re up for that kind of thing, you can read… Meditations on Moloch, on…um…it’s hard to explain.

-- Scott Alexander

Hello friends! It is time for us to discuss the seminal SSC piece Meditations on Moloch. Surya’s also agreed to teach us some calligraphy at this time, so we can practice making beautiful things while we talk about the way that the system is rotting around us.

RSVPs are requested for this event so we have a better sense of the amount of supplies we need. However, if you were unable to RSVP and want to come out anyways, please do!

Readings
