The Maenad's Bone Garden

 a tiny little rant This money has been running around in Arts’ veins for so long that no one questions it anymore.   The arts are the playground of the same 2200 people who are, with great commitment, and furious condescending anger, rapidly attempting to make this planet an uninhabitable, unlivable, feudal hell. The Enemy In other words “ But without their money the arts- ” Shut up The arts do not need the money.   The ARTISTS need the money.   Since we’re still using this Capitalism Strawman for Economics bullshit model anyway. Yes this has been a pattern throughout time, the brutal kings and rulers of the earth control the arts by way of funding.   This is in fact the very problem I am speaking of.   We don’t need it.   We don’t want it.     Fuck your patronage fuck your funding.   If the arts require the patronage of oil baron gasoline child molesters then the arts can BURN.    MoMA> B...

 I suppose I might try to revise this into something approaching...good but likely not.  Some times you just have to express something to get it out of your system Sometimes you just have to rub one out. :)   Yes I _can_ bring anything down to the level of dirt and shit.  That's fine. Dirt and shit are sacred things too.  Dance, Shout, Sing I don’t believe in an afterlife, or souls, or magic or gods. But I chose this body, this physical form, this fleshly experience To endure To understand To experience Defiance under Oppression And it is glorious   I got what I paid for This is the experience I wanted This is the game I am here to play. If there is anything else Beyond this life Then there must be things that bring These higher forms back and back again If this is a game for reincarnating gods then maybe it’s all okay.     If this suffering is only temporary but amusement eternal Then I shall endur...

 

  Let me harp on this again, the Ishtar Cycle becomes available – or should I say preorders become available – a week from today.  So don’t expect me to shut up about this any time soon. Cope. But in this case, I come not for self-promotion, desperate though I may be for it, as for great justice.  

 So, assuming you have seen it or at least just now read the wiki article.  You must understand this was the _only_ representation I saw in movies coming up. Family friendly  Barring shit like the trans women being the punchline in movies like Bachelor Party – one of DARLING ERICAN TOM HANKS mor shining moments – that was literally it for me growing up. Meanwhile and I don’t think many of the younger people reading this will really understand, but this was the 1980s.   When All Media was almost literally fagfagfagfgfagfgfgfgfagfagfagfagfagdirtystinkingfaggotyfaggotfagfagfagfagfgfagfgfgfgfagfagfagfagfagdirtystinkingfaggotyfaggotfagfagfagfagfgfagfgfgfgfagfagfagfagfagdirtystinkingfaggotyfaggotfag fagfagfagfgfagfgfgfgfagfagfagfagfagdirtystinkingfaggotyfaggotfag. Basically every other word in all things that were not network television.  VCR Parenting  Sleepaway camp in my case has a unique distinction – it hails from my freshman year in high school when I ...

  First I will remind you that the Ishtar Cycle goes on sale a week from today!  Now Verybreifly, why Dawn of the Dead is the best Zombie movie.   Night of the living dead is a classic. It’s definitive.  You CANNOT dispute this ,and I would not try. But to me, the most punk rock movie ever made is Dawn of the Dead.   Why?   The   nihilism, the conflicts between the characters, why people betray each other and along what axis and of course it’s rampant anti consumerism.   These are all big wins for me.  Super feminist for both the direction and the era but not in a happy way that second wavers insist is the Only Appropriate Output.  Many, if not most, American films of he 70s have a lot to say about feminism but this is among the few of the period I would tag as feminist (see also Alien)   It also cheats by being my first zombie movie Next I am going to talk about Sleepaway Camp. 

for The Ishtar Cycle begin in 14 days!!!! You have until Devil's Night 2021 to get your houses in order, the Queen is Coming. 

 I do not believe I have properly danced in circles and made it abundantly clear in these here parts how absoposlutely fuggin Happy to be part of this compelling , hard-hitting body of work,  Now  I run from the pun police Corporeal A brief note about the pieces.   Firstly let me thank everyone @corpreallitmag for the very existence of the project in the first place, for taking my work and for treating it with so much love and effort and respect.    I have been very blessed  as I close out my first real  year of this by so many incredible high profile publishers and publications (as I see them) that have opted to take a chance on my loud maddened words.  To the matter at hand.  2021 has been a strange time for me.  After many years of struggle suddenly I found myself amidt lots of people that actually wanted my work - while also dealing with the usual (bipolar "disorder," PTSD,  capitalism, poverty, games work, sex work) d...

 which is as much for my own mental health (important) as because I believe in transparency (also but somewhat less important), and in particular because I want to do my part to normalize talking about this (well this and so many other things) openly.  I am recovering pretty well at this point from a really serous bout of major depression; it was and is of a largely external and situationally exerted nature, which .. stacked poorly with my own bipolarness.  If you do not struggle with either let me assure you it is entirely possible to be depressed while experiencing a man+ episode.  It is .. .a thing.  A reminder that I am still, in many ways, working out my own language for a lot of this stuff.   Thank you for bearing with me.   I made a post here in the bleakest of it but did not publish.  I am considering pushing it, with perhaps this as an introduction, but .. it''s really bare and I am not sure I am totally comfortable with baring ...
