Wedging myself in an orange fold of sky on the edge of town, staring down the frozen maw of empty fields a former home at a time. I need to remember the color of the light. I’ll settle for a stiff drink or hot bath.

Our Shared End of One Moment
Things are slowing down. Yesterday I gave a make-up final exam to a student named Mark. He was originally supposed to take the exam on Monday but left a message for me at work that something had come up, could he make it up at a later date? It’s a tough call for a teacher when students do something like that. Half the time I would probably assume the worst and imagine some excuse sitting at...

1. Superglue the handle of a mug for the third time in 10 years.  2. Take a 90 minute walk, stare only at the tops of buildings and down the type of canyons created by the narrowing of buildings and streets and skies. 3. Frame two things. 4. Think about people in the midwest at least three times. 5. Pull at your sweater five times, adjust headphones 36 times, admire boots at least twice. 6. Run...

“02:13:40 (Robert) Remonte… remonte… remonte… remonte…...”
– “What Really Happened Aboard Air France 447” - Jeff WIse Nitemare material. I’m so absolutely scared shitless of flying. I wish I could explain it in a way that made sense. I’m sweating and shaky. Reading this was like tonguing a torn cheek until passing out from pain....

“Now political affect doesn’t occur in a vacuum. It’s not a matter of...”
– Semantic, Pragmatic, and Affective Enactment at OWS - John Protevi Super beautiful analysis by my old mentor at LSU. He nails so much by affirming the power of OWS rather than constructing an argument critiquing or responding to others’ critiques of OWS. More than that he speaks directly to a...
