  Fundamentals of Qabbalistic...

  Manly Palmer Hall

  The Qabbalists conceive of the Supreme Deity as an Incomprehensible Principle to be discovered only through the process of eliminating, in order, all its cognizable attributes. That which remains--when every knowable thing has been removed--is AIN SOPH, the eternal state of Being. Although indefinable, the Absolute permeates all space. Abstract to the degree of inconceivability, AIN SOPH is the unconditioned state of all things. Substances, essences, and intelligences are manifested out of the inscrutability of AIN SOPH, but the Absolute itself is without substance, essence, or intelligence. AIN SOPH may be likened to a great field of rich earth out of which rises a myriad of plants, each different in color, formation, and fragrance, yet each with its roots in the same dark loam--which, however, is unlike any of the forms nurtured by it. The "plants" are universes, gods, and man, all nourished by AIN SOPH and all with their source in one definitionless essence; all with their spirits, souls, and bodies fashioned from this essence, and doomed, like the plant, to return to the black ground--AIN SOPH, the only Immortal--whence they came.

  Made-Up - A True Story of Beauty...

  A nuanced, feminist, and deeply personal take on beauty culture and YouTube consumerism, in the tradition of Maggie Nelson’s Bluets
  		 
  As Daphné B. obsessively watches YouTube makeup tutorials and haunts Sephora’s website, she’s increasingly troubled by the ways in which this obsession contradicts her anti-capitalist and intersectional feminist politics. In this poetic treatise, she rejects the false binaries of traditional beauty standards and delves into the celebrities and influencers, from Kylie to Grimes, and the poets and philosophers, from Anne Boyer to Audre Lorde, who have shaped the reflection she sees in the mirror. At once confessional and essayistic, Made-Up is a meditation on the makeup that colours, that obscures, that highlights who we are and who we wish we could be.
  		 
  The original French-language edition was a cult hit in Quebec. Translated by Alex Manley—like Daphné, a Montreal poet and essayist—the book’s English-language text crackles with life, retaining the flair and verve of the original, and ensuring that a book on beauty is no less beautiful than its subject matter.

  How School Makes Kids Stupid -...

  Education is supposed to be the foundation of knowledge, personal growth, and future success. However, the modern school system has become a rigid, outdated structure that often fails to serve its true purpose. Instead of fostering curiosity, creativity, and independent thinking, it enforces memorization, conformity, and a narrow definition of intelligence. The system was designed for an industrial era that no longer exists, yet it continues to shape young minds in ways that leave them unprepared for the real world.   
  The purpose of education has shifted drastically over time. Originally, learning was a means of survival and personal development, allowing individuals to acquire skills and knowledge relevant to their environment. With the rise of industrialization, schools were structured to produce disciplined, obedient workers rather than innovative thinkers. Today, that outdated model remains largely intact. Instead of adapting to the needs of a rapidly changing world, schools continue to prioritize standardization over flexibility, forcing students into a one-size-fits-all system that often stifles their potential.  
  At the core of this broken system is an overemphasis on memorization rather than true understanding. Students are expected to absorb and regurgitate information for tests, only to forget most of it shortly after. Critical thinking and problem-solving take a backseat to rote learning, leaving students ill-equipped to navigate complex real-world challenges. The grading system further reinforces this problem, reducing learning to a numbers game where students are judged by their ability to recall facts rather than their capacity for deep thinking.
