"If he is not the word of God, God never spoke." It's a line spoken by The Man, unnamed, early on in the 2007 Pulitzer Prize winning novel, "The Road" by Cormac McCarthy. It's this line, elegiac and moving, infused with despair and hope, that informs you, you're not reading something you'll easily forget.

Much of what gets labeled as rambling is actually a mismatch between how ideas are structured internally and how they are expected to be presented externally. Many environments reward listing, where ideas are arranged in clean sequences, bullet points, or linear arguments that move from premise to conclusion in a predictable order. This structure works well for certain kinds of reasoning, particularly when problems are discrete and conclusions are already known. It does not work as well for reasoning that depends on relationships, causality, or pattern recognition across multiple domains. When relational thinkers speak, they are often navigating a different internal structure altogether, and that difference is frequently misunderstood.

Dear Professor Donkeldong, I would like to formally apologize. Last night I snuck into your office. I sat in your chair and poured myself three fingers of Scotch from the bottle you’ve got stashed in the top desk drawer. Then I helped myself to your private library.
