258. Dad Crush -
There’s a certain kind of crush that doesn’t make your heart race in a scary way. It’s the safe kind. The kind that comes with calloused hands, bad jokes, and a steady presence.
If you’ve ever had a moment where you looked at your dad and thought, “Yeah, I get why Mom fell for him” — this one’s for you. 258. Dad Crush
I’m talking about a Dad Crush.

Great write-up about Tom Wolfe’s take on modern art. It’s funny how much our appreciation is guided by reaction and impulses that tend to settle and soften over time—hence the reason we see modern art in doctor’s offices and think nothing of it. It’s hard to imagine that book being published today, yet in its day it was a daring statement.
