   In my quote from Vox.com, there is this short and   
   pregnant passage:   
      
   <>   
      
   The clause: "determined as always to make subtext   
   into text, [he] left no room for confusion" resonates   
   with what Jen/dagnabit says:   
      
   <>   
      
   <>   
      
   Mental culture, if done successfully, is just this   
   reversal, from content to context. In a sense, it is   
   the turning of the text/story to the subtext/context   
   behind all such texts/stories. When this reversal has   
   been accomplished, no confusion is possible. What   
   happens is just what happens, just there, without   
   further ado. Boom and just like that. No esca
