It's funny when you feel as if you don't want anything more in your life except to sleep, or else to lie without moving. That’s when you can hear time sliding past you, like water running.

"praxis" is so dilute as to be meaningless but i would argue for detournement and transgression of corporate IP as leftist gestures even though piracy in and of itself isn't. also v grateful for the person in this thread who recognizes that self-employed artisans are definitionally petit bourgeois
the thing about piracy is that if you replace it with "buying secondhand" or "borrowing a friends copy" it cuts through a lot of chaff. you dont see people arguing youre stealing from poor indentured writers when they buy secondhand & you dont see people arguing that borrowing is leftist praxis yfm

Pieta, occuring (you gradually realize) within a sarcophagus. Very odd mixture of physical-spiritual pain and kind of intense sensuality. Giovanni Bellini, what a painter. Today is his day.
