Kos reconsiders caucuses
One thing I like about Kos is that he's willing to reconsider his biases when his biases conflict with hard reality. Case in point.

Dispatch
I often think of troubadours (cf.
cavalier poets), their metrical rhymes,
their passions (n.: the sufferings of a
martyr). They too wanted love—but burning
in the timbers of their desire was a
hope, that love would lift them above the mun-
dane and ordinary, that through love they
would become more like the gods—more alive.
Think, my friend, on how ordinary and
extraordinary love is—pause—then, breathe.
