MARXIST-POSTGRUNGE

the long lame walk of the dark seventies

i’m putting together an actual lineage narrative with a proof statement on stevens bc i want to make sure my ducks are lined up before i post about it i’m SO serious because how come a farmington school board member at a stevens event hosted by none other than the TEAMSTERS just said one of the most racist things i’ve ever heard about arab americans in metro detroit and i know you believe that’s saying a lot! accusing abdul el sayed of only caring about arab people and not all ethnicities (she then goes on to list ethnicities) when FIRST of all that man is biracial and SECOND OF ALL stevens was ANGLICIZED FROM ITALIAN VERY RECENTLY and she doesn’t know!!!! (it’s actually just very interesting)

eta he’s not biracial lol he just has a white stepmom i thought was his real mom which counts as biracial if you’re not a biological essentialist (farmingon lady said “my DNA is my DN I” (?))

These days, lots of public libraries have a "library of things" collection where you can check out kitchen appliances or yard tools or toys, and, as a children's library assistant, the most popular library of things item that I handle regularly is a plastic scepter thingy called like "unicorn princess magic wand". And whenever I check it out I make a big show of looking at the little kid and being like "do you solemnly swear to use your unicorn princess magic powers only for good and never for evil?"

And pretty much without fail, the little kid will get the world's most mischievous grin and go "I'm gonna use it for EVIL!!!"

i left the public library right before it would have been my job to brush an american girl doll’s hair. you would think i would like that (dolls) but you forget the slobber of it all

currently dawdling on my oral history library of things task. right this second

head nausea is sooooo peppermint tea instead of ginger tea. if you’re a dizzy person or migraineuse and you feel betrayed by ginger tea not working it’s because the media is controlled by digestif nauseans not head nauseans. if you’re a blood sugar type you’re both. especially if you have gerd! if acid is part of your nausea equation that’s where ginger really shines, mint can be gerd triggering for many, relaxes your tubes too much. doesn’t bother mine though. if you don’t want to consume it, just sniffing peppermint oil may make you feel better. don’t put it in the air if you have pets. just fighting for my life in bed with one peppermint nausea lozenge keeping me alive

but moon pix is the underrated aquarius album

society when an air sign is from the south…

i need to update my phone emojis i think. everyone dsa has a 🌹, starbucks organizers ☕️, chipotle organizers 🥑, coworkers ⭐️ (that’s our mascot), i didn’t label my union on my phone contacts but elsewhere they’re 🐍 (ASP :)). veronica was 🐊 but i might want a new one for her it’s very old. westlin is 😈. this person i know who uses fae pronouns is 🧚 not to remind me but bc that suits faer personality. however i did have to google possessive forms of the pronoun just now. i printed the following icons on the label maker for work ID: 🗄️📎📑🐈‍⬛📂🏴. the educational support professional clericals symbol is 📎 which i think is actually the perfect symbol for archivist labor organizing :)

[rgr-pop]

what emojis represent me to you

[rgr-pop]

they really pushed getting a bite guard on me and they were like insurance covers it so you might as well. didn’t tell me that it would max my annual and then i can’t get any more cleanings or fillings until january. stupid that cleanings would even apply to that and also i didn’t know there even was a max

gonna train the new person on archives space and tie up my loose ends then work exclusively on totally worth it to me outreach stuff and also fun descriptive puzzles like solving my big legacy index from hell. i’m going to get paid for almost all of that or not do it. i’m going do to the archivist’s job of fixing the job description he messed up so this person can get paid more than $15/hr. then i’m going to ask another local archivist if i can process something evil for her (she accidentally keeps getting evil materials) (somewhat famously evil place). which i will do for free because evil is its own reward (plus i want her to say nice things about me)

[rgr-pop]

i can’t even tell you how much work i’m doing for free, you have to get me out of here

the desire to visit graceland keeps getting louder. i feel about graceland how i feel about the 9/11 museum. but maybe more like how people feel about the vortexes out west. i wanna know if it feels evil in there. or like if i personally can feel in touch with evil there

[rgr-pop]

i wanna go on a psychic retreat at graceland

rikki asked what i think is a gemini color and now i'm just staring at her

[rgr-pop]

peak paul as gemini sun/venus in taurus, value as abstraction, dialectic means two/valuation is two things becoming another thing, two people can never become one person (always two), but something can always be one thing and another thing, 💷📄🗣️🗣️🧮💱🧑‍🤝‍🧑

The song was originally titled "On Our Way Home". Ian MacDonald suggested that the lyrics (e.g.: "you and I have memories/longer than the road that stretches out ahead" or "you and me chasing paper/getting nowhere") sounded like McCartney was probably addressing Lennon and contractual troubles. “You Never Give Me Your Money", a McCartney composition on Abbey Road, also refers to the Beatles' contract with Allen Klein as "funny paper".

and for what it’s worth john, linda, and ian were all libras

[rgr-pop]

does anybody wanna play through these songs together and tell me what you like better (a configuration or b configuration)? imagine the rest of the mix is kind of long and a lot of like crossing landscape and vegetal rebirth stuff and the closing track is solomon burke that’s how i got to memphis

i’m so ill from mundane shitty driving that i don’t think i can survive the walk in the heat home but i also am not going to call a ride because everyone is such a fucking bad driver. when corey drove me down to chicago recently i didn’t get sick ONCE or have a migraine at all because he is the one in two million baseline competent driver and i had totally forgotten that could happen. stop accelerating! you’re a car length behind another car you should not be accelerating! you’re a bad person! everyone who speeds is a net negative on the world!!
