Funny how resistance to AI in public space is described as "vandalism," but outright theft of the work of writers/artists is treated as an acceptable practice in the name of the technology's dubious claims to instrumentality and value.

The run-on sentence as Art: His latest work in English is “Herscht 07769,” which imagines a graffiti cleaner in Germany who writes letters to Chancellor Angela Merkel to alert her to the world’s impending destruction. In its 400 pages, it sports only ONE period!

It’s a girl for Naserian! As has become tradition among our ex-orphans, the proud mum returned ‘home’ this weekend to introduce her brand new daughter to the people who raised her. The special name we have chosen for Naserian's little girl: Nyika, which means bush/wilderness in Swahili.

"State Terror: A brief guide for Americans"
Revisiting a piece I wrote in April 2025
"In the history of state terror, the escape from law into coercion takes three forms... the leader principle; the state of exception; and the zone of statelessness."
