no more olympics
friday
i was gonna write the final score but forgot to. check the internet. there's no reason to learn facts anymore. the internet is an extension of the brain. it's a global, shared brain.
i have nothing to read. i have a desire for good literature. i'm not writing i'm thinking. fuck. think or not i have to write. shakespeare would be nice. that would be nice, if i had some shakespeare. i could buy one. a play. boodstores have don't have much but they do have william. i'm attached to the bevington edition, though. i don't need it anymore. i know bill's style.
five o'clock and all's well. still no sleep. i have energy. it's nice to have energy. the canadian school really took it out of me. i sacrificed my health for money, much of which was not given to me. i have to let it go. from now on when people ask about it i'm gonna say "it didn't work out." they're not gonna make it. they keep trying to expand and expand and their teachers leave as soon as possible it's a house of cards it's gonna come down. i wish them well.
so yes nothing to read reed i'll have to write. it still feels forced to write "reed" instead of "read" maybe i'll drop it. or maybe i'll extend it maybe i'll spell phonetically more. i'll never completely settle my style that's my style always playin always experimenting. but it should be reworked. the spelling. actually maybe not. because the special feature about english is it's the borg it assimilates all else but if you standardize phonetics you reduce assimilation.
i said "america is rome" to pawil he said no because america must still ask europe for things still must negotiate with china but that's bullshit america does whatever it wants. anyway that's not even the point the point is where old rome did it militarily new rome does it economically. it's the same thing, really. just a level of abstraction: we keep raising levels of abstraction. more and more symbolic. less and less concrete. less touching with hands. more touching with words and computers and bank accounts. a bank is a store of arms. cash is the weapon. you stream it from your hands and annihilate all that lies before you. business is warfare. it takes money to make money.
