Fair enough! It's a classic.
Also you can feed strawberry tops and leaves to dogs, if you have any, in moderation. They lose their minds over them!
Did this get reposted somewhere notable recently? This is the third time today I've seen someone reference this ten year old post
For what it's worth, several Catholics I know have also had to read the book with notes open on the side. Monastic culture and tradition isn't exactly common knowledge anymore, though I'm not sure if they would have been in the 50s, or if Miller just trusts that his reader is smart enough to catch on.
If you like Canticle, consider looking into the works of Gene Wolfe. He also writes very re-readable sci-fi that expects much of the reader, and delivers much in turn.
If Randall had a monthly newsletter consisting of maximally confusing (but technically accurate) headlines, I'd subscribe in a heartbeat
I am into baseball, and even I'd be disappointed if I got linked to the Orioles.
The middle-South could use another team, and I hope they can support one.

It's so wonderful to see him thriving in Cincinnati, and the team apparently loves him too. Thrilled for the Reds, and hope they can keep it going!
The Merchant Princes series hits that sweet spot between mindless explosion thriller and fascinating essay with some worldbuilding on top, and I wish it was more widely discussed.
This concept drives me insane, because I also love it but my favorite example is one that both heavily plays with it, but also 85% of the book relies on you not knowing it's coming.
Like Earth All Along is almost always a spoiler, but this one just hits exactly right for me.

ND is the new introverted.
Only introverts think deeply, get anxious, or enjoy academic pursuits. Do you have a counterexample? Oh, well that person just doesn't know they're an introvert, so the pattern still holds!
Same with ND/NT. Nobody is neurotypical according to this definition because everyone has something they struggle with or are quirky about.
