    Several months ago, I was in the waiting room of a dental clinic in Costa Rica patronized by many from US. Also in the waiting room was a loquacious gentleman of distinctive countenance who was obliviously also from from the US. He said (among many other things) he was 76 years old. About a month ago I was watching one of these James Elllroy videos and realized that the guy in the waiting room looked, walked and talked exactly like Mr. Ellroy and was the same age. I don't why he went to Costa Rica for dental care, but it must have been him.

    Capital in the web of life (cancer) spreading metastases since 1500 through colonialism (economic exploitation, extraction of resources, and commodification of nature and human beings) and neocolonialism (debt enslavement and financialization of nature), from the search for profit to parasitic financial rent-seeking. Cloud capitalism is the newest layer in rent-seeking parasitic capitalism. It is still capitalism.

    Capitalism is feudalism, ownership of people and pure unscrupulous slavery, terminology has changed, nothing else, kings are now "entrepreneurs" and slaves "employees", actually literal cattle but cattle has been freed by technology while humans continue to produce abundance with their own hands for the minimum of moldy straw for food.

    In the intervew with Robert Scherer this year, Ron mentioned the movie 'Exodus' when discussing the Israeli war on Gaza. He mentioned the music from it and didn't get the names of the piano players quite right. They were Ferrante and Teicher, playing the theme song. While the movie was a clever piece of propaganda foisted on the American people to elicit sympathy for the young Israeli state, the theme song was really lovely.

    After the Cass Review none of what Butler talks about makes any sense. Gender confused people are simply suffering some some mental health. Butler's mumbo jumbo just complicate something that is fairly simple. Gender is the Cognitive Structure that represents Biological Sex. Regarding the issue about women's spaces, Butler complicates it with more mumbo jumbo when the issue is simple: women don't want men in their spaces. The "other group" are men! Why is butler protecting men? This lady is confused. Gender Ideology is dead and Butler is being irresponsible by doubling down on an ideology that looks more like a cult than science.

    I do wish someone would get through to him that conspiracy theories aren’t facts, no matter how much they tacitly flatter the person who needs them. He keeps on framing it that masses of people want to read him and it’s only a cabal of moustache twirling bell-ends in London stopping him. Not, say, because people want to spend their hard earned cash on reading someone else. He’s being a tad snobbish about genre fiction too, which I would have thought he was above. Also: how do you empirically ‘prove’ one book is greater aesthetically than another? Whether you like Raymond Chandler or Dashiel Hammet or not, to a lot of people they’re obviously the better writers, not Kafka. Are they ‘stupid’…? And how, for that matter, does an open atheist also manage to sing the praises of a place like TEXAS so often and ignore how they regard unbelief there? People like Hemingway more than Sherwood Anderson because his life was more interesting.
