Withering Slights: The Bent Pin Collection 2007-2012

“If you tried to get to the right of me you would fall off the end of the earth because, you see, it's flat. I started out as a paleoconservative but that eventually ceased to satisfy. Paleos are comparable to the Romans of the Early Republic, but I had stopped believing in republics because they invariably degenerate into democracy, that Great Fan that everything hits sooner or later. There was only one place for me, politically and temperamentally, so I became a royalist. I believe in absolute monarchy and the divine right of kings, but other than that I'm moving left.”
