R,

my phone is not working currently, i hope this email still works for you.

I'm still thinking about your last messages. I'm not ready to talk about them yet. finding words can be hard.

I've been reading a lot this autumn. Balreet and I loved this time of year. it occurs to me that there are texts which we choose to read and those which are chosen for us. grief is a text which reads itself, carries itself out in our actions, our illnesses, the panic-crash cycles of economic crises and nightmare fugues.

this autumn I've been reading Terra Ignota 1-4, Crisis of Parliamentary Democracy, The Palace of Dreams, Anti Oculus A Philosophy of Escape, Thessely 2-3, The Dispossessed, Red Mars, Barthes' Mythologies, The Mote in God's Eye, Hardt and Neghri's Assembly.

also a lot of Tarot. the Labyrinthos app is a game changer.

last few days I've been reading pieces in Locust Review. I got some lines published in issue 9 or 10. I wanted to send this one to you.

I reached out to a friend, S.L., i haven't heard back much yet, i hope they are well.

Someone took a lot of money from me, and I don't really have the money to buy justice.

I wish I had my job back. or a data entry job, something remote, cause I'll likely lose Selene and getting to work without a car in the winter is not really sustainable.

this winter I would like to read some more Benjamin and finish Borges' collected fiction and read more of Assembly and Radical Tarot and The Most Radical Gesture and Spectres of Marx and I really have to reread Lent and take another crack at Capitalism and Schizophrenia and Paradise Lost and so many others.

I'm trying to write stories and explore ideas for worlds and theologies, Utopinalia is the platform I'm doing that through. would like to submit some of my own work to Locust myself.

Essays-wise there's my project on self harm as constitutive writing, and my work on political demonology, the cult of the lesser evil which I began while Trump was still in office.

the holidays are really hard. I'm leaning on my lunar feasts. Today, πŸͺπŸŒ’, is currently an undefined feast, but I'm making progress for πŸ§ΏπŸŒ”πŸ›Έ which is Christmas this year.

a blogger friend says maybe i should switch to WordPress or Substack.
