Last week's second newsletter will come after this weekend's two (it's a piece on the nature of authority, which I struggled to feel ready to send off while in a low). But first, this week's paired duo, which I'm pre-announcing to defy my silly brain.

Later today? "Of Mitochondria, Mince Pies, and Patron Saints" (Try to guess the throughline, I dare you.)

And tomorrow, a paid-subscriber deep-dive building on Coriolanus, to reflect on the relationship between politics and war. 👍🏻
