I fell in #love with #GravityFalls when I saw a #gnome #vomit a #rainbow (the Technicolor yawn I’ve been waiting for).
You’ve heard it said a lot
That T.S. Eliot
Spells ‘Toilets’ if you anagram
The name of that respected man.
But think of other literary greats–
The fortunes of his poet mates
Might very well have been in doubt
If anagrams are thrown about.
Would readers find it hard to take
If Keats had signed…

Trains, the First Symbol of the Networked World
Ever since the mid-nineteenth century, when the laying of train lines went hand in hand with the introduction of the telegraph, railway stations have offered the most up-to-date communications services. They marked the beginning of the world perceived as network. You could send and receive messages through a grid, as it were, like lines on a map, without actually touching the ground anymore, as the train passes over the landscape on its rails without ever really touching anything else. It was a more mental world, more mentally busy and fragmented than the old landscape where a physical message had to be carried on hooves or cart wheels.

“You may say I’m a dreamer, but I’m not the only one. I hope someday you’ll join us. And the world will live as one.”

John Keats. To Fanny: autograph manuscript.
In this poem, dedicated to Brawne, Keats admits that his heart “goes fluttering for you everywhere,” and begs her to keep him “free/from torturing jealousy.”
Ah dearest love! sweet home of all my fears,
And hopes, and joys, and panting miseries
To night, if I may guess, thy beauty wears
A smiling of such delight,
As brilliant and as bright,
As when with ravished, aching, vassal eyes,
Lost in soft amaze,
I gaze, I gaze!
