dogs are good. government is evil.

did you think settler colonialism was in the dark past? in the city that works (for the rich) we call it urban removal. trees, critters, folks—find another place for your humble and precarious existence.

 lo, the seething ghosts of the obamachron, this massive engine of gentrification and displacement, bringing the rich in and driving people out. we saw it coming and there was nothing we could do to stop it.

idle know what these laboratory kids are trying to do breaking up trees to make some kind of useless structures, forts i guess, but so pathetic, we used to make real forts you could hide in and play illicit games. 

lulu ate something awful but let us not talk of that now.

 the dining room is painted churlish green and my head is woozy. lulu and opal had a nice romp. good thing about lulu, she loves everybody, though i wish she wouldn't jump on 'em. i want to crawl into bed now. it's only 4 o'clock. still gotta do the sky watcher obamachron picture of the day and move some furniture. 

ok, i'm boosted. it was a smooth experience at the neighborhood club, and an easy walk home, feeling elevated until after lulu. now i'm zonked. i tossed and turned in anxious tides last night. there's less of an undertow now though. it comes and goes in waves with a line between. 

 easy money. the obamachron, 1/26-7/22.
