Day 6: A song that feels strangely out of place on its album.
Dar Williams - Flinty Kind of Woman.
It's out of place since it wasn't on the first independent release I had purchased and was added to newer releases.

"[They] make religion a cold and flinty-hearted thing, having neither principles of right action, nor bowels of compassion. They strip the love of God of its beauty, and leave the throng of religion a huge, horrible, repulsive form. It is a religion for oppressors, tyrants, man-stealers, and thugs."
Yeah, I cannot emphasize enough how much evangelical support for Trump represents a failure in theology, pedagogy, and morality. The entire thing centered on recognizing just this type of figure and resisting him as a religious duty.
The Left Behind crowd is too busy trying to figure out how to vote for Nicholai Carpathia for a fourth time.

They always said shit to me like “we’re just flinty Yankees” and I was like, nah man, something is wrong up here.

🥂 we moved to ME in the 1600s. Lived in NH, which just dumped Sununu. And Masshole fam too.
Some days it's just good to have flinty New England roots.

While the world said we weren’t doing enough, we were. Oh, we were. From the hunkering down to the saddling up. We were sad but stoic and dare I say flinty. No more heroes? SO MANY HEROES.

This one is so fantastic! Evocative, dreary, hazy & production design that feels extremely modern, and the performances are outstanding. Patrick Bergin is a confident rapscallion, and Thurman all flinty & mischievous.

‘Troopers’ has some gripping scenes of military conflict, but it is mostly very talky, addressing military training, organization, and philosophy.
So in the context of the novel, the cavalcade of war crimes in the prologue chapter MUST be deliberate, what RAH takes as the flinty truth of war.

The Tents of Maize
The Shocks of Maize like Wigwams stand —
Across the sloping Rye —
An Army bivouacked in Gold —
Beneath a flinty Sky —
They wait no Bugle from the North —
To bid their Camp disband —
The Solitude is Occupant —
Of all the chilly Land —
~ Love, Sophie 😺🙏
