- Hate came back to me, dog I knew it would.
- Something we'd paid for, something we needed, didn't happen as service promised and I needed asshole the service's phone representative after pleading didn't work
- I try not to be an asshole, I hope people can vouch, but when need be I can be, it worked
- Before I needed be asshole to service's phone representative I had spontaneously, without weighing, reflexively tweeted a Fuck You to a just seen Obama tweet in which the sanctimonious fuck bemoaned gun violence, the fucking war criminal
- (I hadn't been deliberately *not* typing motherfuckers much the past week, I hadn't typed motherfuckers much the past week for reasons good and reasons I can't type here but mostly because I just, without weighing, didn't)
- I wouldn't have tweeted Fuck You to Obama after I'd assholed the service's phone representative, muck fe,
- that I still assholed the service's phone representative after tweeting Fuck You to Obama, fuck me and my algorithms
- fine bingo free metaphors square abound
- Very pro-slavery. Still pro-slavery
- Capitalism and its discontents
- These motherfuckers
- UPDATE! Looking at last year's tomorrow to see if there's an Egoslavian Holy Day tomorrow I discover last year's tomorrow I posted The Official Egoslavian Flag of Deleted Seething. I'd bless Serendipity, but Serendipity has nothing to do with it.
- Angst and madness at the end of civilization
- Every crucifixion needs a witness
- UPDATE! NOTES from the SEETHING RIM of a RHINESTONE-FESTOONED SHIT-VORTEX which hopes to CLAIM US ALL
- Capitalism, socialism, and the ethos of integrity
LOGIC
Alice Notley
It was a poem
men took because it said ovary
didn’t take my
political poems
they took the one that said ovary
Are you sure it was because it
said ovary?
Yes, for them that’s logical.
---------------------------
Destroy another
city
What
else
is war for? So
you’ll go down
each of you does. dies in
whirlwind
each of you who does, dies
paying
for the pain you experience
Just that
and nothing is established
Because I am a woman
Cutting as many cords
as tie you to me. this isn’t
anarchy
it isn’t anything you
could name
You’re still here
without ties?
because they were logical.
---------------------------
Dance little asshole dance
oh he gets elected, like a Calvinist
He says, I have these guts
Men, I have these guts.
--- ------------------------
Having dedicated whole
regions to the destruction
you inspire, the
logic will be to go on doing it
doing it. Having proceeded by
the logic
of your per-
sonal vacuum
you will perceive your continued
lightlessness
as an excuse to go on. having
gone on
as you have. And so one continues.
-----------------------------
Lead the boy out of
the building on fire
his head twisted
upwards
all fucked
What else is there to
know if
one has gotten
twisted up
all fucked
he is a screaming fire
-----------------------------
In the explanations
of our lives’ experience
they’ve left out this wild moment
the long mirror on the right-hand wall of the
corridor suddenly shattered
I can’t see myself anymore.
-----------------------------
I repeat that I am not frightened
and why not
I don’t know
what my reactions
are supposed to be.
-----------------------------
“Please tell me something
with which I’m familiar.”
isn’t there another part of now

the author of this essay, joseph stiglitz, whose most recent book is titled People, Power, and Profits: Progressive Capitalism for an Age of Discontent, ends by writing
It is now time to find a path between incrementalism on the one hand and violent revolution on the other. A radical change in economic and power relationships is possible. It is also existentially urgent. This is the only thing that will save capitalism from itself and from the capitalists who would unwittingly destroy it, and the Earth along with it.
