The confusion of reading these three books together —
Aleister Crowley: Magick, Rock and Roll, and the Wickedest Man in the World. Gary Lachman
Effortless: Make It Easier to Do What Matters Most. Greg McKeown
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas: A Savage Journey to the Heart of the American Dream. Hunter S. Thompson
Not so terrible, really. Entirely appropriate given these curious times.
