I’m not sure what to think now
I have no idea what to think about this. It seems that internet Libertarianism has a level where Poe’s Law actually applies to it. I have no idea if this is true, or if it’s simply some kind of elaborate … Continue reading
current times 2: these things
I’ve been reading, writing, playing, watching: so it’s time for another review session, this time of a comic, a book, a game, and a movie. 1. The Clarence Principle – This comic was entertaining, and had some amazing bits, but … Continue reading

“Catcher”
This is a little thing I just thought about, up, whatever. “Catcher” The words dropped out of her mouth, hitting the side of the ash tray, some spilling out on to the table. Tears did the same, and I didn’t … Continue reading
I’m working on a paper that’s all about Virginia Woolf and Gilles Deleuze and illness and what that means and how it is and my mind is breaking in half, to be honest. This quote is a cornerstone of the … Continue reading
