Some great philosophers, illustrated—a 🧵.

These are in no particular order, but we really must start with Sockrates.
Play-doh Plato
Hegel's Bagels
Crobinson Rousseau
Arthur Schopenhowitzer
Thomas Hobbit and John Lock
David Humid
Friedrich Nitchy
Alexis de Toke-ville
These pictures were all made w/ the new release of Midjourney, the AI illustrator. I was playing around with it today while trapped under small children who were watching Sesame Street.

The new Midjourney is great, but it still can't do hands right.

This week, charges of antisemitism were leveled against a prominent figure in the otherwise quaint, charming, and frankly quite awesome community of fountain pen collectors and enthusiasts. (Really.)

Here's a short thread.
A man named Nathan Tardif founded the "Noodler's" brand of inks and pens. He's wildly innovative, and has created many inks—some very popular—and a range of affordable pens designed to be easily taken apart and put back together. I gather that Noodler's is a one-man operation. ImageImage
The inks Noodler's sells via various retailers come in bottles with art Tardif designed and sometimes drew.

The art sometimes gets political. Some examples: ImageImageImageImage

APROPOS OF ABSOLUTELY NOTHING AT ALL: Can I say a few words about a handful of pieces we've published recently in @TWSculture? I just want to highlight a few of my favorites from 2018. 1/
I'll start with this brilliant piece by David Skinner (@EditorSkinner). It's HUGE—and it's the best essay you will ever read about dictionaries. It's brand-new—it's on the cover (!) of the mag this week—but David started work on it back in March. 2/

Another recent one: @HannahGraceLong is among the most gifted young writers I've ever worked with—she's a natural. This piece on Christopher Tolkien and his father's legacy is filled with more gems than Smaug's cave. 3/
