Remember that these people make/do/produce nothing. Their productivity martyrdom, their bullshit asceticism, it’s all busywork nonsense in this empty edifice that exists to prop up a fake economy they expect you and your planet to die for haaa

Grateful to @peoplesbooktakoma.com for keeping this in stock. I’ve sold almost 200 copies of this zine, total—between direct mail, People’s Book (Takoma Park, MD), Bluestockings (NYC), and Quimby’s (Chicago+NYC)—and PB has given me 80 of those sales, so far.

Come out to Rhizome on Monday, 12/1 for a mixture of experimental dance and audio. I’ll be using my Room Tone set up to process (and amplify and re-process) the sound of the performance space.

Baltimore friends! Come out to the MAP gallery to see this big guy in person. I’ll be at the opening Friday night. 🐌 🖍️ www.mdartplace.org/exhibitions

This does not feel like the precursor to creation but the aftermath of violence.

Zach painted this beautiful portrait of Olga and I’m so happy to have it in our home every day. I miss her a lot.

Excited to get to show this piece at Maryland Art Place (MAP) in Baltimore in a couple of weeks!
