Warren Ellis has a new Streaming up, which in part, explains what superhero comics are good for:

They're good for the Big Crazy Ideas, the stuff that made Marvel comics sing in college campuses in the Sixties. That's why Stan Lee got speaking engagements in American colleges: kids were getting good and fucked up on bad weed sold to them by members of the Mod Squad and staring at pictures of Ego The Living Planet while listening to interminable noodly guitar bullshit by the Grateful Dead.

also: i applied for a few jobs, i'm trying to speak to an academic advisor, i floated out of my head about a minute ago, which hasn't happened in years, and the grill here in the student center, the Alferd Packer Grill, is named after the only person ever convicted of cannibalism in colorado.

which is why the mexican section is named El Canibal.

i like it here.

last night, in the boulder book store, after reading about 30 chapters of a used copy of the Book of Lies, we saw nalgene bottles with the inscription "Keep Boulder Weird - support local businesses"

i reiterate. i like it here.

also: big lightning. massive co-op. we could actually do all of our food shopping at the co-op. this is our plan. pearl street is wonderful. moshi moshi bowl is good japanese fast food. there are actually japanese fast food places here. and penny lane has really good chai.

oh, book of lies: as far as i can tell so far, sex should be used as a method of unifying duality with the effect of temporarily obliterating consciousness (2->1->0), which should help one learn to permanently obliterate consciousness, converting oneself into a hose of divine fire, or universal will.

this connects to the hollow bone idea, making oneself a channel through which spirituality and divine energy may flow.

also: sex=death.
