i believe Nancy and I are revolting vs our lived drive to do! do! do! do! . . .
we got a lot done...
we sit around a lot
books phones talk = quiet research
I know Szarkowski expresses what likely validates lots of stuff
he's a beauty
however the world I live is the social-antisocial
Bill,
At this moment, 2 millions Americans are contracting covid every day.
This is the second highest peak of covid infections.
People over the age of 70 are especially vulnerable.
The latest post-omicron variants are considered more virulent.
Within two months, it's expected that 1 in 3 Americans will have
had a (new) covid infection.
Every covid infection and re-infection increases your chances of
contracting long covid. Long covid can affect almost all of the vital
functions of the human body.
The US government has ceased reporting covid data - because it
is criminally responsible for the failure to try to eliminate the disease.
Short term profits were chosen instead of an elimination policy.
This is post-political representation: i.e. they don't represent us.
I don't think you're going to get very far by
replacing politics with questions of morality
when I studied in Rochester the fascism that was trickling down came
from neoliberals, careerists, left postmodernists, garden variety jerks,
so-called feminists and queers ( word used in correct manner ) - who,
as members of the professional-managerial class, were unconcerned
about the people they step on, just making sure that the Reaganomics
did not keep them out of the club
that's why I focus on the similarities and affinities between
traditional fascism and anti-liberal, anti-Marxist postmodern
theories that are anti-Enlightenment and anti-universality,
wherein identity politics = cross-class collaboration in the
interest of upward mobility and anti-communism
this now includes: radical democracy, left populism, intersectionality,
decoloniality, critical race theory, privilege theory, afro-pessimism,
whiteness studies, and the like
this is the missing link in today's discussion: how we went from
civil rights within democracy to anti-universal power politics
( a.k.a. postmodern nihilism )
by the way,
Kant defined his ethics-aesthetics as anti-social sociability
that explains why Szarkofsky … liked you so much

I was born in 1938 in Southern California - Sierra Madre
i evolved knowing early that catholic missionaries from Spain/Mexico covered the west coast romanticized in my childhood
way too late for me and reality i knew the effects of Mission+ history
way too late Our realities of Slavery
had i been born anywhere across the Canadian border - thru the midwest - south
I would have evolved knowing the Realities of our Indigenous Peoples
Slavery
Lots…
i did not until way too late
Greetings for better times Joe
I read most of Fante's
I had to stop very quickly after beginning most
BUT
”Ask The Dust” & “The Road To Los Angeles” were Light for me
“bland” you say compared to Fante
not your books and poems i say
i came to view my many bland periods & phases as rest stops ... collecting & absorbing historical... i wasn't dead
