     @vii if i'm remembering what Phaedrus is correctly even then I probably wouldn't despite the fujorb for funnies because I think that love *can* and arguably *should* be almost entirely logical

     @kirbius It’s worth reading even if you’re not a big Plato fan. Republic and Symposium are great but Phaedrus lets you see Socrates at his most metaphysical.

     @vii I know Phaedrus from the book: Zen and The art of Motorcycle Maintenance which (briefly?) goes over actual Phaedrus. We love rhetoric.
