the undercount stat of the trumpvirus in the hatefully great usa is 195,239 at 10:34, and my page view stat is a non sequitur of 194,580. it seems like whatever numbers do makes you heartsick and giddy. people are celebrating hard in this time. in the middle of multitudes of wildfires they explode fireworks at a gender reveal party, consigning another ten thousand acres to the flames. hundreds of thousands gather on harley hogs in south dakota and 250 thousand go home wasted with covid, and the generation z kids contemplate suicide at covid parties. i just heard a new word for members of vanishing species—endlings.
and so now we have gone so far beyond the normal death cult status quo we can only laugh eerily due to hurtling velocity as we may wave backward toward our quaint receding aspirational selves on the pre-post truth vanishing point sucking the wind that blows from past to present deflation, time of defaunation and mass extinction.
