The Puritan wanted to work in a calling; we are forced to do so. For when asceticism was carried out of monastic cells into everyday life, and began to dominate worldly morality, it did its part in building the tremendous cosmos of the modern economic order. This order is now bound to the technical and economic conditions of machine production which today determine the lives of all the individuals who are born into this mechanism, not only those directly concerned with economic acquisition, with irresistible force. Perhaps it will so determine them until the last ton of fossilized coal is burnt. In Baxter's view the care for external goods should only lie on the shoulders of the saint 'like a light cloak, which can be thrown aside at any moment.' But fate decreed that the cloak should become an iron cage.

For the putty affair I have is wore out, so it is, sitting, yaping and waiting for my old Dane hodder dodderer, my life in death companion, my frugal key of our larder, my much-altered camel's hump, my jointspoiler, my maymoon's honey, my fool to the last December, to wake himself out of his winter's doze and bore me down like he used to

The Revolution of Everyday Life

Down quantity street

People who talk about revolution and class struggle without referring explicitly to everyday life, without understanding what is subversive about love and what is positive in the refusal of constraints, such people have a corpse in their mouth.

"There's more innovation and more cultural acumen in any episode of Ren and Stimpy than in any of the books of our last trio of national poet laureates."

The art of the future will be the overthrow of situations, or nothing

We will wreck this world

Everyone must search for what he loves, for what attracts him

On the way to the discovery of what you loved, you would find everything you hated, everything that blocked the way to what you loved

I was shocked at college to see one hundred of my classmates in the library all reading copies of the same book. Instead of doing as they did, I went into the stacks and read the first book written by an author whose name began with Z. I received the highest grade in the class. That convinced me that the institution was not being run correctly. I left.

July 2: Odd dream last night

I am on a normal looking neighboorbood street except that all the houses have for pets vicious exotic animals like cheetahs and lions and the range of their chains extend into the middle of the street. DJ Brendan and I part ways saying see you at the show. DJ Brendan crashes his motorcycle as a lion tries to get him but is fortunately unhurt. I get away on my bike. I go to the KDVS station where I realize that I am missing class. The class is Cool as Folk and is taught by Michael Leahy. But then I see Michael Leahy in the DJ booth and am confused. Michael Leahy comes out to talk to me and says yes the class started today but DJ Haggis is substitute teaching for him right now

I also have recurring dreams in which I do a really bad radio show
