Thinking about becoming hard like a godforsaken mountain—immovable, unknowable, yet undeniably there.
just found the channel Crime Pays but Botany Doesn't and it's a lot of fun
it's small, but the first ways i'm trying to do so are in developing my own relationships to places in their fuzzy categories. the interrelations between the different lives, the obstacles to flows, the different practical-philosophies that make them up. and trying to connect that to different possibilities of mutuality and cooperation against domination.
i've been thinking a lot about what i have the capacity to do, what my relationships with different pieces of the world can do to change the possibilities around me.
i don't know the language to describe my changing beliefs about the world and the powers inherent and immanent to it. i feel like a lot of my work reading has been trying to discover the language i was looking for, and it has gotten me closer but i still feel so far....

i started the book Dark Ecology by Timothy Morton. i'm not sure what i think about it yet. it's been wrong in frustratingly obvious, glaring ways a couple times, but i think it says something important to a particular kind of "rationalist" maybe... i gotta get further in it and mull it over still.
i rewatched Pig tonight. it was maybe my 4th or 5th watch and it still makes me cry. it's slow, and it likes to sit in its own emotions, but i think what it has to say about Names, Families, and Connections is unlike most stories, and worth hearing out.

shoplifting discourse has been making the rounds, does anyone have any good readings/studies/etc on shoplifting?

Marx: "The less you eat, drink and read books; the less you go to the theatre, the dance hall, the public house; the less you think, love, theorize, sing, paint, fence, etc., the more you save—the greater becomes your treasure which neither moths nor dust will devour—your capital. The less you are, the more you have; the less you express your own life, the greater is your alienated life—the greater is the store of your estranged being."
From the Economic and Philosophical Manuscripts of 1844
