>>3863last night you had a strange dream
this was not a coincidence
something important happened
you forgot again before you woke up
you cannot remember until you know the way
there is a place you must go
you will sense when you have arrived
>>3848"Sett took another long drag, crossing the threshold between anxiety relief and low-level psychedelic experience. The only weed available in Hell were mids with stupid names. That wasn’t particularly shocking or relevant, but something Ratty noted when it was said.
“Have you ever killed anyone before Miss Vermington?” Sett asked.
“It’s Ratty, please— and not to my knowledge. I talked a lot about killing Nazis as a kid but like— god, I hope not.” “Are you not supposed to remain unbiased as a reporter?” Sett asked.
“Nothing more unbiased than cracking some Nazi skull, ma’am.” Ratty winked, temporarily embodying a caricature of herself."
I'm dying of cringe

https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/daniel-colson-daniel-colson-anarchism-is-extremely-realistic-an-interview-with-ballast-review< You put forward the idea that anarchism is not a way of life, a state of mind, but a real ontology. What do you mean by this?> To speak of ontology is to speak of what is, of things, of facts - domination for example, hierarchy, exploitation, oppression, sadness (to stick to negative facts - but it is true that there are many). Contrary to what is often believed (including by some libertarians), anarchism is not an ideal or a utopia, "nice ideas" that we would see every day how unrealizable they are. Anarchism is extremely realistic. It speaks of things as they are: chaos, accidents, life and death, joy, but also pain and suffering, stress, relationships of force and power, the chance and necessity of our existence as well as of the world and the universe which are ours. In short, the "anarchy" of what is.inderesting
>>6107Beautiful book, will have to reread it. Thanks for the reminder.
>>3835Currently reading I and Thou, Against the Day. In and out of reading Nihil Unbound and a complete re-read of Baudrillard's oeuvre. Looking for recommendations on translations of Taoist texts.
