For me rn it is:
Morning: the Epic of Gilgamesh (good way to start the day)
Day: Masochism: Coldness and Cruelty - Deleuze (I’ve done my first reading so I need to pay attention to do my close reading, too spooky ooky to read at night).
Night: The Second Sex - Simone de Beauvoir (first pass reading can happen at night, sadly familiar which is good for night time reminiscing).

Every morning I wake up grappling for a handhold out of sleeps strange tides. Internally kicking and crying, trying to see the self that lay down last night. In this haze I have grasp for a phone to direct my untidy neuron’s firings. Book are a safer place for me to feel human as I come out of the night.
A lovely way to begin the day <3

In this day and age when i can barely get off my phone when I finally spend time reading my book some nights I feel so stereotypically human.
I’m currently reading The Briar Club :o

Sometimes I recommend being a hater. I’m not here to talk about the numerous quality uses of AI, how often it is actually used nor am I here to critique AI without strawmanning it. I don’t care if I strawman an account of AI because I genuinely despise the way most people use AI. I think AI generated images are ugly. I think that AI cannot hold a half decent conversation. I’m completely avoidant when it comes to showing AI my writing; I’ve never done it and I refuse to. I hate when you go to that one poetry website and there is AI “analysis” there, because its not real textual analysis and it upholds a certain contextualised intentionalist framework of reading a text reinforced in high school English. I hate that the meta AI will influence what products will be advertised to you. I don’t care if it’s the future. I genuinely love being called a dinosaur because I hate AI.

When we let go of the fear we hold towards the smallest creatures of our environment, and learn how to immerse ourself in an instance of nature rather than making an instance of nature our own, we learn to truly be alive. Bugs are great because you can’t own them, but you can admire their beauty. #bugnation2024
