i just find it so shocking that it has already been 32 pages since i last dogeared on saturday!

- everything... plus, the damned thing would probably be outrunning you as you read!pylon
- You should try it, pylon. I'll be here to supply you with bananas and water.juhls

Blog is to in-joke meme what fruitfly colony is to accelerated evolutionary research. 2 days out and you miss whole biological systems exploding into birth and only catch on in time to see them burn out from a position of utter confusion.
I've been working hard for, ooo, maybe the last 2 days out of the last 5 years and I feel like the new guy again. bonkers.
Social Futurists would have a field day with this thread. I'm actually half convinced one of number actually IS one.

Very early sketch of a few letters in the typeface I'm working on, this should somehow form the base of it. It's purely based on paper drawing I have made the last couple of weeks, does it lean up against something already made? If so, I would like to know.

our entire civilization seems perched on the precipice of a breathtaking, nausea-inducing plunge of faith... can we find equilibrium at this new low, or is it every man for himself?

maybe its time for the experiment to end, maybe we're better at existing in small family-based groups, out of touch with the wider world. Maybe we should be tribal again, maybe that would feel good. Would be nice to make sure and join one of teh tribes that still has Nuclear weapons.
- fuck that. they are a pain in the arse to carry about. i'm going to stick with my black widow catapult.skt
- So long as it's not one of the nuclear tribes with subs that run into one another...pylon

Scary times, but honestly people it's been worse. There was nothing left of Poland, Germany, bits of France and the UK sixty years ago. Nothing. Carpet bombed. The German currency was worthless. By the sixties everything was rolling along just fine again.
Or the depression — massive unemployment and a drought to boot!
Or the quake in SF in 1906.
Civilisation is built for disaster, it just sucks that we're ringside for it. Jobs will be found and created. Equilibrium will be found.... eventually.
This too, in time, shall pass.

the car's on fire and there's no driver at the wheel
and the sewers are all muddied with a thousand lonely suicides
and a dark wind blowsthe government is corrupt
and we're on so many drugs
with the radio on and the curtains drawnwe're trapped in the belly of this horrible machine
and the machine is bleeding to deaththe sun has fallen down
and the billboards are all leering
and the flags are all dead at the top of their polesit went like this:
the buildings tumbled in on themselves
mothers clutching babies picked through the rubble
and pulled out their hairthe skyline was beautiful on fire
all twisted metal stretching upwards
everything washed in a thin orange hazei said: "kiss me, you're beautiful -
these are truly the last days"you grabbed my hand and we fell into it
like a daydream or a feverwe woke up one morning and fell a little further down -
for sure it's the valley of deathi open up my wallet
and it's full of blood

but d'you think the end of the world is coming?
