Satan and Sin (and my Browser Tabs)

The tabs I have open as I work on this paper about John Milton include:

• The OED definition of the word "take"
• A yellow plaid skirt on Amazon
• Intended for my Halloween costume, which now I am realizing won't come together in time unless I make a damn skirt, which I very well might do, depending on how willful I feel
• Or else I will dress up as something else entirely; I'm not very certain at this point, but I love Halloween and am determined to observe it with some sort of costume
• A summary of Aristotle's appeals
• "The Best of Chopin" from YouTube
• Which came on autoplay because I was listening to Debussy and YouTube algorithms are pretty good at compiling similar music
• "A Feminism Where ‘Lean In’ Means Leaning On Others" from the New York Times
• A JSTOR article by Nancy Frey about the Camino de Santiago
• A brief article from OpenCulture wherein Nabokov is quoted as referring to Faulkner's work as "corncobby chronicles"
• And finally, this painting:
  

"Wanderer Above the Sea of Fog" (1818) by Caspar David Friedrich

I'm writing about the ways Satan projects his image onto the female forms of Eve and Sin in Paradise Lost and it's not very uplifting. Compiling this post was a worthy distraction, albeit a fairly underwhelming one for you, reader. Sorry about that.
