    also read a cool book by Bertolt Brecht last night called Stories of Mr Keuner. here's a choice snippet from it

    not sure what i'm gonna go through tonight, either probably Agua Viva by Lispector while i drink brandy. it's been nice throwing myself into books again to keep my head off other shit.

    i've made some fat effort posts about Georges Bataille and Norman O Brown lately after digging thru their work again but haven't got a ton of engagement on the discord about it yet so i might cross-post to here later.

    hymn of Orpheus to Mars here on this good Mars Day:


    Magnanimous, unconquer'd, boistrous Mars,

    In darts rejoicing, and in bloody wars

    Fierce and untam'd, whose mighty pow'r can make

    The strongest walls from their foundations shake:

    Mortal destroying king, defil'd with gore,

    Pleas'd with war's dreadful and tumultuous roar:

    Thee, human blood, and swords, and spears delight,

    And the dire ruin of mad savage fight.

    Stay, furious contests, and avenging strife,

    Whose works with woe, embitter human life;

    To lovely Venus, and to Bacchus yield,

    To Ceres give the weapons of the field;

    Encourage peace, to gentle works inclin'd,

    And give abundance, with benignant mind.

    I might make a hawthorn cordial today. I found some big beautiful trees of it locally the other day overflowing with berries and I think I'll go harvest some. thinking on this recipe: https://learningherbs.com/remedies-recipes/hawthorn-cordial-recipe/

    sometimes it feels like the only thing that brings comfort these days is the everyday more certain confidence of how much we need marxism-leninism and how it might be the only thing possible of saving this planet
