“Where we perceive a chain of events, [the angel of history] sees one single catastrophe wch keeps piling wreckage & hurls it in front of his feet…A storm blowing in from Paradise irresistibly propels him into the future, while the pile of debris grows skyward. This storm is what we call progress.”

'Gruss vom Angelus'
A Klee painting named 'Angelus Novus' shows an angel looking as though he is about to move away from something he is fixedly contemplating. His eyes are staring, his mouth is open, his wings are spread.
This is how one pictures the angel of history. His face is turned toward the past. Where we perceive a chain of events, he sees one single catastrophe which keeps piling wreckage and hurls it in front of his feet.
The angel would like to stay, awaken the dead, and make whole what has been smashed. But a storm is blowing in from Paradise; it has got caught in his wings with such a violence that the angel can no longer close them. The storm irresistibly propels him into the future to which his back is turned, while the pile of debris before him grows skyward. This storm is what we call progress.

Very unsettled to learn that my niece’s husband who was on the Global Sumud Flotilla has been detained by the IOF. Proud that she found the strength to protest with friends and whānau.

No cheating. Reskeet with the most recent picture of your pet.

Nosferatu, my darling orange cat, dozing on a blanket (which is, in turn, on my stomach).

This is why I keep harping on about her. There are lots of shitty, unethical journalists. Plenty of people have had affairs with politicians. But this affair knocked over a set of dominoes that set public health back 50 years. Children will die of preventable diseases because of her.

An excerpt from the article, reading “Of course, this curiosity is not fatal to Ulysses himself. In Dante, the Homeric hero is consigned to eternal damnation because he used his power over others to lead men to their deaths. If Nuzzi made this connection, or wants the reader to, she does not mention it.”

I’m in Australia so I’m going to go off social media for now. Here’s a restful photo of my cat Spark.

Keep thinking about how Sensei Sergio’s ‘little Latino Harriet Tubman situation’ is ‘All legit. From the heart. No cash’

At the end of a hallway corridor, Sensei Sergio turns to the camera and raises his fist in a revolutionary salute. He has half descended a staircase set directly in the floor and is about to close the trapdoor. Benicio Del Toro, in a still from ‘One Battle After Another’.

My Stepdad, Paul Mullen, is a psychiatrist, he profiled the lone gunmen behind the Monash Uni, Hoddle Street and Port Arthur mass killings. His book ‘Running Amok: Inside the mind of a lone mass killer’ comes out in a week of almost daily US mass killings. extraordinarybooks.co.uk/book/running...

Vale Joe Don Baker! Loved his work since I first saw him in ‘Edge Of Darkness’ when I was a teenager.

It’s #caturday and I’m on holiday in Spain so here’s a cat I saw today fishing in the reflecting pool at the Alhambra palace #caturday #cat #tabbycat

A grey tabby car crouches low looking intently into a pool hoping to catch the carp that are swimming there. A fuzzy mirror version of the cat looks up from below.

View of part of the main tower of the Alhambra palace symmetrically reflected in the pool of the Patio de los Arrayanes. On the pathway of the right side of the pool a cat is crouching by the pool hoping to catch a carp.

Written before the election. I have found that immersive reading is saving my mind right now. That means without my phone nearby to doom scroll, btw. Immersive reading does not work with constant distraction. www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

Cults and mind viruses run rampant. Powerful algorithms hijack our minds. No wonder we all feel so deranged.

They say my novels are surreal. But when I watch Elon Musk playing the jester in Donald Trump’s court, I’m not so sure. His latest novel is “Absolution.”
