Dispatches from Chequamegon National Forest. 25 miles of hiking. Four nights of sleeping lakeside in a hammock. I don't know why we came back.
A still lake reflecting the green trees in the water. The forest at sunrise. The lake is still, reflecting the trees. Man in a hammock. A line of bright red and orange trees coming surrounded by green trees.

I'm still deep thinking about Primetime. The fact that Lance Oppenheim directed this makes me understand his Elizabeth Holmes documentary with Nathan Fielder, because these two films appear to have similar themes and ideas.

Primetime ruled. My opinion that Robert Pattinson is an incredible actor is once again proven correct.

"Imagine listening to this song in 20 years and feeling nostalgia" is an insane thing to say. Longing for a future where you are longing for the past means you can only imagine a future that sucks so hard you have to long for a past that sucked so hard you had to imagine a future that sucked worse.

Tired of seeing the term "performative" everywhere—performative reading, performative men, performative ally, etc.—we already had a word for that and it was "poseur."

Check out my new poem "Acknowledgements" which is made up of fake poems published in fake publications. neonpajamas.substack.com/p/090-poem-p...
“Last July” first appeared in the morse code of my haunted thumb.

*

“The French Have a Word for That” was pressed between the seat cushions of your mother’s musty couch—the one you nearly lost your virginity on—had it not been for the clown in the other room inventing new balloon animals.

*

“Bejesus No. 4” appeared in the drying spring of a pastorally-significant meadow.

*

“Having Said it” first appeared in a text message I sent to the moon.

The first six (of 22) fake acknowledgments in @yoadrianididit.bsky.social new poem. This poem rules. neonpajamas.substack.com/p/090-poem-p...
“Acknowledgements”


“An Uncertain Valley” appeared in The Ticonderoga Railroader.

*

“Which Went That Way” appeared in Cemetery Bracket.

*

“Locking Picking in Somerset” was first issued in an undertaker’s brochure.

*

“Untitled Sonnet (The Wet in a Speaker)” was sewn into your husband’s jacket, where it stayed, draped across the back of a bar stool.

*

“Hat on a Hard-on” was published as an insert in the July issue of Erotica for the Sophisticates of Kenosha Wisconsin.

*

“Weekender” appeared in a dream. It remained there, a red fog ominous atop a slow photogenic hill.

I like going to the dispensaries with a single point of ingress and egress and the doors are heavy like you'd see in the prison from face/off. You walk in, a drone scans your body and a guy in a gray uniform escorts you to a room to buy something called "headband sweat" from a white guy w dreads

Dispensaries are all either authoritarian (and haphazardly run) or chill (and also haphazardly run). There is no in-between.

The internet, particularly social media, is great at separating people into insular, competing factions, which keeps us from recognizing our class solidarity. "Indeed the internet complex has never been deployed with even minor success in furthering an anti-capitalist or anti-war agenda."
Accounts of the internet as an egalitarian, horizontal field of "public spheres" have deleted any class-based language or advocacy of class struggle at a historical moment when class antagonisms are as acute as ever. Indeed, the internet complex has never been deployed with even minor success in furthering an anti-capitalist or anti-war agenda. It disperses the disempowered into a cafeteria of separate identities, sects, and interests and is especially effective at solidifying reactionary group formations. The insularity it produces becomes an incubator of particularisms, racisms, and neo-fascisms. Identity politics, as Nancy Fraser and others have argued, has been crucial to the strategies of "progressive" neoliberal elites: to ensure that a potentially powerful majority cannot recognize itself, being split into separate and competing factions from which a handful of representatives are allowed conspicuous entry into the meritocracy." The internet carries this strategy of highlighting diversity and encouraging Compartmentalization to a new level of effectiveness.

This is such a good idea. It's an app that can tell you when pervert glasses are nearby. They can't tell you if they're recording but they make you aware of the creeps around you.

The most appealing conspiracy I've heard is that they're trotting out the "AI will kill us all, please regulate it" messaging in order to halt development and stop bleeding money because they can't turn a profit. So they coordinated this ruse to not tank the markets. I'm skeptical.
