    I read from the Tao Te Ching all the time. It’s a great book! I am also reading 100 years of solitude. I’m getting close to the end. It’s a trip. I don’t know what I’ll read next.

    I was listening to Losurdo’s book on liberalism and it’s so bonkers… like, you realize just how fake and dishonest liberalism is. I read it based on SpaceCowboy’s rec. idk where they wen tho :(

      Zhuangzi > Daodejing

      IMHO

      But I love both of them.

        Haha, I have read the Zhuangzi but I feel like I haven’t found a great translation of it. The translations I have found lack the meditative and poetic quality of Stephen Mitchell’s Tao Te Ching.

        What translation do you like of the Zhuangzi?

        Also, I feel like everyone spells both of those titles and authors differently. Is there any consensus on that? Maybe I’m just not up to date lol

          Find the one by Wang Rongpei.

          It’s translated by Chinese scholars during the late 1990s. You’d like it.
