“That question each must answer for himself”
‘Science explains the world, but only Art can reconcile us to it. What do we really know about the origin of the Universe? A blank so wide can be filled with myths and legends. I wished, in my mythologizing, to reach the limits of improbability, and I believe that I came close. You know this already, therefore what you really wanted to ask was if the Universe is indeed ludicrous. But that question each must answer for himself’.
“King Globares and the Sages” is one in a collection of short stories by Stanisław Lem titled Mortal Engines. It was published by The Seabury Press in 1977 and by Penguin Classics in 2016. All of the stories in the collection were chosen, translated, and introduced by Michael Kandel.

Pancakes at Cafe Luluc
Just had pancakes at Cafe Luluc with friends. Best pancakes I’ve ever had, stacked two high and the size of a dinner plate topped with butter, maple syrup, and berries. Twin Peaks-worthy. Need to figure out how to make these at home. I think it was a buttermilk batter, and I think they used ample butter to fry the cakes.
