I don't have any of their music in my collection.
I'm listening to Bluegrass music right now.

America has the best errors, because the errors come from a pure excess.
Fuck passivity, fuck positivism, fuck status quo, fuck "populism", fuck popular vote, fuck quantity, fuck analytic (non)philosophy, fuck political correct, fuck appeasement, fuck weakness-love, fuck feminism, fuck health and fuck unhealth, fuck "moderation", fuck compromise, fuck manipulation, fuck untruth, fuck bedtime stories, fuck the past, fuck the future ((impregnate)).
American error = excess = human = love.

Yes, I have read it (The Great Gatsby) but that was a long time ago for some sort of college course. I think I was still in the Army at the time so that would make it somewhere in the later half of the 1970s.

My favorite American novel used to always be the Catcher in the Rye, a bit Camus in New York, whereas British novels I prefer impenetrable like Jane Eyre. I read that for my list early in high school, that made an impression, the rain of these hills still falls down in my soul. Thankfully I like rain.

Those two books, Gatsby and Old Man, should be each read in a single day, preferably in a single sitting.

Western daeminic vitality: whatever fantastic things we create ultimately get used against us-- haha. So what? This is our existential capitalism, after all.
As Nietzsche said, spirit is the life that cuts into life.

Spirit is the life spark, consciousness, right?
