  5. inescapable bodies

    Of course, those who work in pain management quite properly want to bring relief to those who suffer unbearably.
    Of course, chronic pain is debilitating.
    Of course, the effort to find drugs to neutralise the pain are comprehensible and laudable.

    Is it the transhumanists’ wish to do away with pain that is a curiosity, as it seems to deny–along with so much else–the ordinary experience of being alive?

  6. Air Jesus Christ – K. Silem Mohammad

    elves are practical in most aspects
    and the way they think is exactly not like Jesus Christ

    prestige classes and power fruit everyone must have a fire
    depends on what you attend to or wearing lava

    this handsome ghostly image chick coming up to me
    she still wore her former chest cavity

    looks like you’re wearing a ton take some plate off
    do you know that evolution tree where you eat swords

    evolve your rogue and bend it to a club
    crafting natural arrows seems wrong

    you get what you pay attention to
    a foot-tall giant around Clock Town

    immortality is about accepting queens
    look at the bigger picture no destroy it

    I don’t want to become a destructive portable weapon
    being an assassin is built out of my pants

    the battles that lie before us last maybe a minute
    arriving with a suitcase Satan doesn’t care


  7. the with & without distinction

    Robert Gardner usually has no storyline for his films, and no clear developmental structures either, only some motifs and a few thematic notions wandering around. His interests are to look for that which is an apt symbol or sign and, at the same time, is “distinctive in and of itself”.
    In Hamar, occasionally, a woman will be asked by a man to carry the scars he has earned by killing en enemy, but more frequently they ask them to be done for reasons of their own, and because “women look better with than without them”. (Rivers of Sand, 1973, 83 min)
