A Symposium: Obama Phenomena
http://alcibiadesatyale.blogspot.com/2008/07/obama-phenomena.html
The musings of a Yale man living the good life, if not the virtuous one. Thursday, July 17, 2008. Tom Tomorrow (cartoonist extraordinaire, if you didn't know) has a rather clever strip. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). New Haven, CT, United States. Yale student, intellectual, aesthete (apologies for the redundancy). View my complete profile. I guess centralized power is centralized power. Fight the power, or dont. Paternalism at its most familial: thats not good . America outsources even its mediocrity.

A Symposium: I guess centralized power is centralized power.
http://alcibiadesatyale.blogspot.com/2008/07/i-guess-centralized-power-is.html
The musings of a Yale man living the good life, if not the virtuous one. Thursday, July 31, 2008. I guess centralized power is centralized power. Still, they must have known about the Fascist thing. Mussolini's Rome was built largely in the 20s, and I'm pretty sure that most of modern Washington was constructed after that. I guess if you want to send a message, you aren't going to let a few negative connotations of authoritarian dictatorship get in your way. August 30, 2013 at 9:08 AM. The West at Yale.

A Symposium: Is LiveStrong dead?
http://alcibiadesatyale.blogspot.com/2008/08/is-livestrong-dead.html
The musings of a Yale man living the good life, if not the virtuous one. Friday, August 8, 2008. I saw one today and remembered it- when did people stop wearing those LiveStrong bracelets, and the knock-off ones? I'm certainly glad it's over, but they lasted for a good while. How long does it take for fads like that to die? Note: Stephen Colbert still wears his WristStrong bracelet.). August 9, 2008 at 12:26 PM. August 9, 2008 at 2:15 PM.

A Symposium: April 2008
http://alcibiadesatyale.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
The musings of a Yale man living the good life, if not the virtuous one. Wednesday, April 30, 2008. Your chains will set you free. Helen and David were talking last night about constraints, and how oppression can be good. The basic thesis, as I interpreted it (disclaimer: I was not the most. Okay That seems to work. But if we need constraints to help us understand identity, what kind of identity do we have? Sake People who shout "down with the man! Annoy me as much as they do anyone else. I've chosen...

A Symposium: August 2008
http://alcibiadesatyale.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
The musings of a Yale man living the good life, if not the virtuous one. Tuesday, August 19, 2008. David Brooks wavers, it seems to me, between thoughtful philosophical conservative and Republican talking head. Today he writes. In his capacity as the latter. And the American Dream is saved. I know that I'm probably preaching to the choir here, but it really does irritate me when people use John McCain's poor policy choices and lack of charisma to characterize him as some kind of David to Obama's Goliath.

A Symposium: Fight the power, or don't.
http://alcibiadesatyale.blogspot.com/2008/07/fight-power-or-dont.html
The musings of a Yale man living the good life, if not the virtuous one. Tuesday, July 22, 2008. Fight the power, or don't. The pus-filled sore of women and Union leadership has now been scratched. So I figure it's my turn to take a stab at it. There appear to be a number of questions at hand. A few of them are:. 1 Do women and men have different roles/purposes in leadership? 2 If so, is this appropriate? 3 What should the Union do about this? Often the same people. Not at all. In the sense that it i...

A Symposium: "Wherever it is"
http://alcibiadesatyale.blogspot.com/2008/07/wherever-it-is.html
The musings of a Yale man living the good life, if not the virtuous one. Friday, July 18, 2008. Is funny. I like it because it's amusing, and because it references Aliza Shvarts. You have to be on your toes, because the next big repugnant masterpiece could happen anywhere, at any time. More and more I find myself traveling to Sweden, California, or wherever Yale University is just to get a glimpse of a duck being force fed pâté-filled Oreos. THAT PICTURE LOOKS JUST LIKE BEN DARRINGTON HOLY SHIT.

A Symposium: March 2008
http://alcibiadesatyale.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
The musings of a Yale man living the good life, if not the virtuous one. Thursday, March 27, 2008. Be true to your school (of thought). Nicholas Kristof has an opinion piece. This is really really scary. I know that people have strong feelings about their favorite candidates, but they're really not that different. Obama is better than McCain. Clinton is better than McCain. Al Gore is better than everybody, but unfortunately that's irrelevant. Do the right thing. Vote Democrat in 2008. This isn't anything...
