  1. We lose a job. We lose friends. A loved one dies. A marriage ends. Something perfect turns out not to be. Something meant to stand forever, crumbles apart and falls. Everything that flickers eventually fades. Every expression of fixity yields to alteration and sway.

    Between the experience and the recognition, the remembering lasts longer than the event.

  5. @black_intellect

    I summarized an exploration of the #whitesupremacy and #racism that powered the #PartySwitch mstdn.party/@duaneaubin/110079

    There have always been other candidates around the big winner. What drove the big winner to the big win? Great question. One consideration is the combination of timing, and a disingenuous, wink-wink, dog-whistle message that creates the sense of inclusion, of being an insider while pursuing an agenda to perpetuate #WhiteSupremacy with plausible deniability.

  6. @duanegran Same country, same logic:

    Selling a cake to a gay person is participating in the marriage, but obstructing the certification of Biden's Electoral College votes in Congress, while a violent Trump-mob is storming the Capitol isn't participation in insurrection against the authority of the United States.

    There's enough crises in the world already! Start with Fossil Fuel destruction of the environment and then work your way down the list, #SimonCritchley I mean seriously, is Simon from a different century than us??

  14. "[T]here are those who think there is no way back from the catastrophic event", Nick Cave says. That the gravity of grief is too strong. That there is no way to escape it's pull. "That they will never laugh," never love, never hope, never feel comfort or warmth again. But, just as sure as the world will turn and the sun will shine, you can, you must, you will...

  16. Sometimes behind the simplest of sheers there is something left ajar. A passage. A presence. A door. An entryway to infinity and clarity. Vastness and enormity. The magic that holds the world together, that keeps us together. That binds us to something bigger, to one another, to ourselves...

  18. Doors open and close. Conceal and reveal. “You forget what you want to remember, and you remember what you want to forget”, Cormac McCarthy says, and there are doorways in between. Between memory and anticipation. Between hope and regret.

  20. Doors are places of doubt and belief. Where the tricksters linger. Where the deep-seated shifts of calamity and serendipity occur. Places of faith and trust and yearning. Places of disillusionment and discontent. A longing for somewhere else, for some place else, for something more...

  24. With energy and angular momentum. A rock covered in water, hearts, heartbreaks, life, earth, and air will rotate over a million miles in a single day. In only twenty-four hours, a world of 6.6 sextillion tons will shift around the great distance of its own axis, forty-thousand kilometers of circumference, until the light reappears.

    Agree. But, this thread isn't actually about the greatest president.

    I've been doing a series of threads on #WhiteSupremacy.

    This post was just a lead in to talking about the #PartySwitch

    For the complete series (thus far), see medium.com/@DuaneAubin

  26. 1/23 Why explore the #PartySwitch?

    #WhiteSupremacists like to deny it happened. Some just don't know any better but, from those who do, this is a flag - are they hiding something?

    All our threads in this discussion thus far (which I've saved on Medium pending a better way to do this, see medium.com/@DuaneAubin) have provided broader context towards enhancing clarity for so much of #AmericanHistory and the current state of affairs, and this topic is no different in that regard.

    Let's rock!

  27. The only "#afterlife" I'd ever be interested in would include a small, smoky comedy club where I could catch a triple-bill and hang out with #LennyBruce, #RichardPryor and #GeorgeCarlin. Serious bonus points if the house band is led by #DuaneAllman.
