homework projects 07dec22

 Writing this to say I think I've embedded "the wasteland" into the semiotic study project. First semiotic study, at least to an appreciable degree, then touch on an *easier* poem than the wasteland. But, still... the first thing is:

Finish T&I. I'm at the part on atheism and the will -- fairly early on, but the first part went so much faster. I was like "yeah yeah, that's it, preach it my man" the whole time, and on the second one (being an atheist 'n all), now that I'm on the second re-read of the section I'm getting bits but it really was like a wall at first.

Husserl is higher in my que of potential things as in its in the back of my mind at the moment.

then, of course, the big essay I began, but got distracted from -- existential ethics and levinas, or some such thoughts like that.

Sketches over sketches

 Well, In better judgment perhaps I'd have done different. But I have to say there's a certain amount of pride I feel in having been booted from twitter by telling who I took to be a member of the house of lords to "fuck off and die booji" lol. @HuxleyDick is the @ which I refuse to activate. They gave me a ban for violating their terms of service -- and to reactivate the account I have to give them my phone number to prove myself in order to begin the count down.  At this point my feeling is that my twitter account was just me screaming into the void. I liked the strange mixture between being connected to the world in some way that was more than a prayer, yet people who were annoyed enough with my antics could ignore me. Like, literally, block me. I needed that in between space for awhile. But I'm being tempted to move onto a blog now to fulfill that need. I've had a blog before and I recall it had much less attention than my twitter account anyways :D  But t...
