ok, might actually turn this into something and do my job for a change
working out in jeans and dress shoes like sorry i’m on acid from the night before but good morning to your sweet little workouts, San Franciscans in this bougie hotel that cost me a lot of money to me—money is relative; it was nice to be lux for a night or two, before flying one-way to Austin (yes, I am just my fear and my story, my father, money, hope, antagonism; I put my writing fingers in the middle of old works in progress and make them something else, though inevitably autobiography, while other men are up on lightpoles ~ words I use to be grateful for community, nation; Native Americans are an interesting subject: indigenous people; and as I write the words, women come to mind instantly who’d hate me——men like me have fetishes for being hated by hot, righteous, subliminal women — this post is now dreck like all my other ones, runoff waste water, which clears the space for my real kindness in real life face to face, when later I talk to the faces who right now I ignore because we’re all looking down at our screens; we don’t want to get up and out (yet): nature is too bright, communion must be scheduled,
enjoy your podcast xoxo see you onscreen for name game blame game i’m just crushing you in my mind first
i like the state of my dreams and who i’m sharing them with
seeing details in the viewfinder feeling responsible for the city
I’m just an operator of other peoples hearts and I am mildly concerned for Yasmeen because I think she’s under the impression that I’m her boyfriend is gonna move in with her but now I’m way more interested in moving to the hotel kabuki in San Francisco and believing in my talent and marrying myself mostly in my ability to collaborate with another artist and make 1+1 = 3 without the mass of domestic partnership I’d rather have it done professionally you know they clean the sheets food is there the gyms there everything is there and all it takes is you doing thousand dollar work multiple times and I like the idea of a goal to go out and see Jesse in Germany that feels like the move Yasmeen is too up-and-down and I also know that she’s gonna be in the country in a few months and I think she’ll cut ties whenever it’s best for her I think she’s pretty selfish and family oriented and self oriented and is too young and has too much ahead of her I think she’s going to use me and cut me out whenever is good for her so I might focus on money that’s what I believe in I don’t mind that’s the truth at all peace

confabulation (the psychiatric definition): fabricate imaginary experiences as compensation for loss of memory
Saturday 2/25/23 a wonderful state of achievement, patience, having arrived in understanding, temperance, patience with aggression and refusal; perfect balance of good and evil, heaven and hell, shadow and brilliance, dank drippy violence and terror mixed with heavenly woman and child; nature, full-throttle, a clear pane of glass inside me, understanding of ego and the structures of the world; the thing now to understand more is food, supply chains, but also how oil and meat interact on the grill
If they’re not better than you at something, they’re not for you. Making a church out of cutting out the mediocre

Marge Piercy, Woman on the Edge of Time (1976)
“we’ve become more mechanized”
we obey what we think we need to be
we could revise our expectations
this takes letting go of the past and being present
the slippage
to what degree
you are computer-generated
we obey Google Calendar
because we love obedience
courting worthiness with every swipe of the digital pen
inking our fingerprint where someone will look
building a castle in their mind
but we are always just one & there are 149 more
every individual seeking audience
all your other identities
representation and bias is just who we are; the domain of the absurd, uncanniness; so we fight against who we are, refusing to stay still — this will be the fight to the death; in the meantime: beauty, wonder, pleasure
life as speculative fiction
feeding sexual desire
comparing what i see to what i love;
continually discovering what my set of references is; the past and the present are one, one long immersion; time and death become the problems, the floor off which everything made of light bounces; being right about light gets one nowhere ~ all that’s there is the good, true and beautiful … sex comfort robots; learning the names of other people’s families ~ Andre Gide vs. “I hate families!”; Don DeLillo from White Noise: family leads to fiction

DJ Spooky Paul Miller
who was Paul, who was a miller
Paul Milker wanted young boy penis
how could he be blamed?
yes; hashing things out with the memory of my molester, knowing an artist bears wounds healed and unhealed; shame and courage intertwine; everything’s valid
how does he become a spooky disc jockey
running the horses around
meaning versus dreams
credit
lineage
provenance when we’re all the same person, if a poet speaks for and to all selves; a poet is just voice, pure awareness which can be JPG’d and named and sorted in the machine that, yes, rules us ~ but the question of the artist is who’s going to be my ruler on a moment by moment basis; we are maybe not able to come further than being a well-behaved child
the world versus her artistic voice
what the men’s world demands of a woman
coexisting across planes of reality
we all have data doubles
