@BrianJopek The dumb motherfucker is what happens when the far right goes #postmodern.

It just took them 40 more years to get to the same dominant cultural aesthetic.

His dumbness is ”ironic detachment”. The very same thing critiqued by his followers, who are all in, doing it.

What is not real is pretending that violence is secondary to discomfort over language

In my life, what is real is people being beaten and shot, blood on the walls, evidence fabricated, mass arrests, torture in prisons, borders closing, and fear becoming an everyday condition. Fear isn’t imagined. Fear is rational. What is real is watching a police officer chat casually one moment, then flip instantly into an instrument of state violence the next. A human being turns into a mechanism: boots stamping, braking toes, batons smashing heads, cameras destroyed, people dragged […]

“On top of a wild height, called Cowanscroft, where the lands of three proprietors meet at one point, there has been, for long & many years, the grave of a suicide…”

Hogg’s ingenious metafictional pre-publicity for the CONFESSIONS… (Blackwoods 1823)

We don't mourn the death of originality cuz we're too busy liking, reposting, reenacting, all while thinking we're the protagonists.

But we're not. We're extras in a film with no director.

That's the standalone complex: a revolution without a cause, a ghost with no shell.

“Published posthumously in 1978 and now reprinted for the first time, her classic study POETIC ARTIFICE marked a provocative intervention… It is not the job of poetry to deliver states of ‘inarticulate rapture’, but to be the articulation of that rapture”

“For the uninitiated: she’s a literary cult figure, a rising star of British post-World War II poetry and criticism whose career came to an abrupt halt when she died suddenly in 1975, at age 27… Today, Forrest-Thomson is more relevant than ever”

A colour photo of Veronica Forrest-Thomson, in the washed-out, muted tones of an early 1970s Polaroid. A young woman with short brown hair, she is wearing a sleeveless dress with a high neckline, patterned with abstract grey lines and squares on a white background. She is standing in front of a large bush with green leaves and clumps of pink and white flowers, looking off to our right.

Mirror, mirror on the wall
show me in succession all
my faces, that I may view
and choose which I would like as true…

Through the Looking Glass
by Veronica Forrest-Thomson

Mirror, mirror on the wall
show me in succession all
my faces, that I may view
and choose which I would like as true.
 
Teach me skill to disguise
what’s not pleasing to the eyes,
with faith, that life obeys the rules,
in man or God or football pools.
 
Always keep me well content
to decorate attitude and event
so that somehow behind the scene
I may believe my actions mean;
 
that one can exercise control
in playing out a chosen role;
rub clouded glass and then,
at will, write self on it again.
 
But if, in some unlucky glance,
I should glimpse naked circumstance
in all its nowhere-going-to,
may you crack before I do.
