A living collection
Not the ending.
What comes just before.
Penultimatology is a working library of essays, Orthodox Scripture studies, serialized fiction, engineering projects, personal history, and quantitative sports analysis.
Its archive reaches back to 2008, while new chapters, studies, ratings, forecasts, and software continue to appear. The word still means “the study of next-to-last things,” but the shelves are no longer waiting to be filled.
