We got rad Shalo P prints and musical madness debuting OUT OF THE BLUE tomorrow and tomorrow's tomorrow.
WOO HOO.
It's all going down GOLDfor the sake of wild fun, and tending to the public sphere's concerns over lack of public art of the "non-abstract-lipstick-case-metal-phallus" variety, and for maybe something just a tad more of the "country home-cooking for a kinder future metropolis of creative miscreants" kind.
Make it out and I'll party beside you, and all the good folks of Oakland, California in the vicinity.
It's gonna be a wild ball - and as sunny as an egg on its most casual side.
And FINALLY, somebody who just shares our plain ole’ hatred of the nasty cold reality ofCorporate Culture, blatantWall Streetmalfeasance, and the inhuman1% Sabotage of the American Democratic Process. This united, uncontrolled greed has poisoned, horrifically abused, and swallowed alive this planet’s natural resources and good faith.
We need real solutions to a whole list of dire issues; Innate Human Dignity being recognized before Material Wealth sounds like a good start. Honest Pay for Honest Work sounds "tits" to me too.
Let the anxious clouds and screaming voices on the horizon impart good sense unto you this June 7th, dear Californian. VOTE WITH FURY, wherever you may be this year. Do it as a solid rebuke to that trough of unreal hogwash running this country under the banner of theRepublican Party, and for a fucking goddamn decent modicum of honesty in the supposed highest seat of office in this nation - in deference to overseeing some semblance of true "justice over all". Fact is: When you play the The Game of Thrones in today's US of A, you're gonna need a Red Wedding's worth of super-delegates in your pocket, unless the underdog breaks the model by unifying the unrepresented.
LET'S PUSH FOR THE UPSET OF A LIFETIME. Let's resolve to remain fine young knives ready to carve any encounter with the systematically corrupt powers that be, no matter who wins.
LET'S DO OUR PART TO OVERTURN THIS HOLOGRAM
AND MAYBE PUNCTUATE THE LAST THREE CENTURIES OF AMERICAN REFORM WITH ANOTHER GOOD OMEN. This experiment called "human civilization" is still reeling from so many drag drawbacks suffered in the generations past...
The Slaves, arguably, have been freed, unless you're anywhere near a fast food joint or think of the visiting someplace where prospects of freedom are unilaterally unsavory (like North Korea).
Women can boast of the right to vote for over one hundred years, if they can wait a bunch of summers.
Modern forms of communication seem a seamless in-penetrable stream with an invariable tangle of disparate perspectives overlaid onto a panopticon that oddly feels like it goes both ways, raining down a culture of mediated abundance while drinking up our personal information. It figures that folk feel like they're trapped on the wrong side of a one-way mirror. It's plenty tough to make a new choice too, especially when each step seems fraught with far-too-serious repercussions, including various forms of internet crucification, self-immolation (or those deluded as far to believe: deification). Well Baby, ain't it crazy thatFDRhad it right about “THE FEAR”? Shucks, a potentially civil conversation these days - in living breathing life - can likely result in your discussion being cut short by the listener publicly shitting themselves outta fear.
SURE ENOUGH. It’s about time we had an Art President.
COME ON
WE GOTTA BELIEVE IN BEATING BULLSHIT OR WHERE YA THINK YOU'RE GONNA GET YOUR KICKS?
From that leather-shined stamping boot? Or a world nuanced with rules that uphold dignity, creativity, and inter-connection - one that is fearless in hoping our asshole human collective gets its act together eventually?
With the most love and compassion I can emit to strangers and friends.
p.s. "We will not be driven by fear into an age of unreason, if we dig deep in our history and our doctrine, and remember that we are not descended from fearful men — not from men who feared to write, to speak, to associate and to defend causes that were, for the moment, unpopular."- FDR
