And I don't know, but I guess the history of people doing awful things to each other predictably overlaps a lot more with the thinkable than with the gothically unthinkable.
However, it is thinkable that it, or more precisely, that the positing of nature implicit in it, may not be able to be demonstrated at all, that there is no nature at all.
And it feels like for a lot of us, understandably, it is less thinkable to develop strong boundaries than it is to do something you don't wanna do and then ask to be paid for it.
If I'd done the math, being careful to add in all the time spent in after-school conferences and correcting papers at home, I might have seen it was a very thinkable sum indeed, and that our situation was worse than ever.
