I made a rule to only take things worth at least 10 x the weight in my backpack . <| sep |> Conceding an election is not going high , it ' s just doing what is expected of you . It ' s like that old Chris Rock bit I go to work , I feed my kids . What you want , a cookie ? Clinton ran a negative , dirty campaign , same as Trump . There wasn ' t a single moment in this election where Democrats went high , unless you count the primary , where Bernie pretty much exclusively went high . <| sep |> It ' s definitely worth a read . If you have a kindle or something similar the digital copy is fairly cheap . If you like a challenge House of Leaves is a spiral into madness that makes you feel smothered as you read it . The writing style is different to say the least but if you can get passed that it ' s a really good treat .
