everyone clowns on adhd people when they pop 30mg of adderall and start crying about how “they finally know what it’s like to be normal” but they’re low key right. humans are meant to be on high dose amphetamines

the post-whaling cultural consensus on whales as like eternal and quasi-sacred persons just can’t comprehend how recent and anachronistic this perspective is. melville was not thinking that!
the reason moby-dick remains such a vital piece of human art is that it addresses what is probably one of humanity's greatest collective atrocities, the genocide of the whales, with an ambivalence it cannot itself fully articulate. melville is distraught, but he can't explain why
