makes it kind of hard to walk when you do this little buddies

Cat heard the rain and thunder and decided to enter hibernation mode. Setting new records for sleeping in right now. I am trying to get her up to go out and she is pretending she cannot hear me. It is a battle of wills, and hers is stronger

guess who haunted our walk down the block again tonight

people like to say things like “well lizards can’t love you they just sit on you for the warmth.” do lizards not love warmth??? are you so willing to dismiss conditional love that you cannot allow yourself to be loved for warmth??? do even humans love you as unconditionally as you seem to demand???

adventuring! exploring! on the go! go go go!

Autumn issue is coming soon! Vilém Flusser on cover.

*our plans are measured in centuries voice* i drink my horchata in quarts

they did this today

one of today’s Hegelisms/evilisms: If Kantian critical philosophy wasn’t so utterly dominated by Kant’s bad conscience over his own better insights, it would look more like Spinoza, but a Spinoza who bothered to account for his standpoint & didn’t need his security blanket of substance anymore.

i’m doing a reading group of Hegel’s encyclopedia logic with some friends right now which is a great outlet for being evil

he will just watch Cat chewing on one of her bones like this for an hour at a time lol.

Fannie Lou Hamer said she didn’t know much about communism, but “if we push just a little farther than they think we should push... then they say, ‘This is communism.’ So I began to wonder about communists because from what the people is really telling us, it must be very good.”

booger & bastard back at it again

"Reflecting on the Roots of Black August & George Jackson"

everybody has that one friend who pulls up sometime after dark to follow you around & go bananas on some of your toys on the floor for exactly one hour

everybody else has stories about having bed bugs except me, and that makes me jealous

well nobody at the event liked my story about how during a recent “night eating” episode i almost certainly ate half of one of my dog’s greenies in between half a loaf of bread & like ten hi-chew candies

they said it’s HOT outside LET US IN (readers they were let in)

working as a hand on a dying small family farm, learning how to paint anatomical models for medical schools in the city, or most likely drinking myself to death. go back one more generation my ancestors were all still Catholic & were mostly either like railroad workers or thieves

Enough “what would you do on the commune questions” If you got sent back 100 years and were given your grandparent’s job, what are you doing?

pokemon viciousness and betrayal

for my sophomore - junior years in high school (2007-2009) i would straighten my hair every morning and wear skinny jeans that were so tight they broke two razor flip phones in half in my pockets

sword of damocles but instead of it being the omnipresent threats to those in power it’s the looming eventualities of abject poverty like when all of a sudden, on a seemingly random schedule possibly determined by when it’s least convenient for you, all your bills are due at once

Your philosophy: static, ahistorical, cis My philosophy: dynamic, deeply historical, pluripotent

Everyone trying to defend the integrity of Nolan’s Odyssey “just on its own terms, not compared to Homer” I invite you to watch both Paul Verhoeven’s “Total Recall” (1990) & Len Wiseman’s “Total Recall” (2012) & then defend the latter with a straight face on the same grounds

I believe that Cyclops penises are either like gorilla penises, and proportionally small with a baculum and so ordinarily not visible, or like elephant penises, and tucked into a protective sheath between the hind legs when not engorged into a prehensile “fifth limb”

James Crane@jamescrane.bsky.social · 3w ago

i will defend Nolan for not showing the Cyclops penis. It just would not make sense for anything that big to have its dick and balls out all the time. Most megafauna/great apes don’t. It shrinks behind folds of fur/skin or retracts into a protective sheath/internal cavity. Same thing probably

I got this: 1. No 2. Homer’s

Aaron Bady@zunguzungu.bsky.social · last wk.

I think there are two different kinds of questions one can ask and answer but which are getting blurred together In The Discourse: 1. Is Nolan's The Odyssey a good movie 2. Which is better, Nolan's or Homer's The Odyssey

friends who worm together squirm together

lmfao well on top of having pancreatitis again (called it) guess who got worms from eating cat feces ⬇️

James Crane@jamescrane.bsky.social · 2w ago

last minute vet appointment for possible pancreatitis flare up 😑

next time someone asks for receipts to prove my Real Marxist cred i’m skipping the capital V1-3 spine checks & going straight to screenshots of my desperate & persistent messages to relatives & friends asking for small but significant sums of money

well fam i am fucked lmfao. “that which is downwardly mobile should also be pushed” as Nietzsche would say. words to live by!
