No Thrones. No Crowns. No Kings. →
On October 18, millions of us are rising again to show the world: America has no kings, and the power belongs to the people.
The unsupported use case of Bix Frankonis’ disordered, surplus, mediocre midlife in St. Johns, Oregon—now with climate crisis, rising fascism, increasing disability, eventual poverty, and inevitable death.
Read the current manifesto. (And the followup.)
Rules: no fear, no hate, no thoughtless bullshit, and no nazis.

At the end of a serious bit of incisive self-reflection about tensions between intellect and psychology, Winnie expressed some passing concern with where the post ends up.
Hope it was not too weird reading a snapshot of my psyche and then seeing a photo of an egg sandwich. I guess that sums me up nicely.
There’s little to worry about here, as it was Winnie who implored us to “normalise being whole persons”, a handy and exactly correct construction I’ve since utilized more than once.
We are none of us ever just one thing, and any moments that might themselves tend toward such as few and far between. We are all both convoluted psyches and simple egg sandwiches, and there’s nothing in that from which we should run.
The only real problem Winnie presents here is that now I’d very much like an egg sandwich while not actually having one at hand.
