sermon notes from church today; saw last night that i had work published in the remilia quarterly magazine--and apparently there were some release party for it that i was asleep during--which is neat, cause i don:t think i:ve ever had work published before (or: i:d be unaware if i had, or: forgotten); i thought it was my writing that was published but i think some artwork is in there.
i get the impression the remilia people and associated works have a social dirt connected to them but i:m always fairly grateful anyone would 1) want my work, & 2) want it enough to put up with my really petty demands (i always request being paid in multiples of four exclusively and insist that i can:t make work exclusive for something, or can work on demand-basis). but thrilled and grateful all the same.

Hello,
Can you speak to 'passing through to the other side' as an option opposed to 'staying on the outside of' in relation to the world of images. I mean, do they only take? They were once a world, now just a pain in the forehead and they are flat, stiff. And they accumulate and spread. Can you speak to the compulsion to delete?
Thank you and I love to read your posts at times.
hey anonymous;
whatever issue you find that you have, you:d be better pressed to express your issues less poetically if you want real+material answers instead of just some vibe abstract answer; i can give you the poetic answer, though: o, anonymous, it:s all so tiring;
take care

hello mara! do you have any favorite animals? personally ive always been fond of moles because they live mostly solitary lives underground. i am also left-handed. wishing you a lovely day ❤️
hey anonymous;
for the most part i hate all animals -- can:t stand them, and over-all they just are "heartbreaking existences" to me, and the more i think about their existence the more depressing and dirty it seem: more-so in the framing of pets: like little people kept infantilized and enclosed in this animal-shaped box that becomes their boundary and the spirit inside is kept in this odd "retardation chamber" and the spirits outside of which reach down and pet it and coo and keep it in additional boxes; grow old and die a life spent of simple expectation and safeties and within a house though they were prized convert of Gods of Hikkikimorism; or, more likely personalized: seeing fractals of my own relationship with my mom and self, and how the dogs were treated: how they were spake to: how i was spake to; shock collars, control schemes, small yards, dust and fur everywhere, etc etc;
mostly, too: they just carry a sickening warmth to them no-matter their captivity; worst thing of all with the warmth is it begets warmth of these Hikkiki masters of "retardation chambers," whose existence then becomes fawning cutesies and odd toyshipism; oh, the cute dog; oh, the cute cat; oh, the beauty so of these birds: i imagine same being said of people and think it all odd and weird and strangely sexual; to release from the chamber: crush the ribs, the skulls, etc;
as a kid i really liked marine life, and was obsessed with the sea and wanting to live either on a boat or underwater ala some empty Rapture-like place; reptiles were sort-of neat, may-be because my mom worked with them and i were exposed to them so much; before i was "communicated with" a few years ago and everything changed, i really loved my cat (not all cats, just mine), but after communication happened and "i saw the dirt on everything" she just became another dirty thing that i sort-of play an obligation to, cause i want her to have a good life as i can give her -- i owe her that much for my part in "the retardation chamber" and the odd machine-like pet animal industry. that:s about it, moles remind me of that one kafka story about the burrows; take care, anonymous.

church notes from the adventists this week; very tired, not sleeping; yesterday made ube yogurt (had a big purple potato to use up) and a small carrot cake (using flax and protein powder mostly, had to use up carrots); cleaned a lot this week; almost done with hearts in atlantis audiobook, and my brilliant friend (physical); really like the illustrations i made for last orsday sabbaths programming; haven:t felt much motivation; reading blog (the untranslated, wordpress) on "graduate school" makes me want to learn languages to read more things -- language kind-of creepy: can:t remember if it were in programming or in DMs or some ask here but just-as music threads itself with control, control, control mechanism so-too does language and so-too does light and life; constant thrumming control, control, control and if you hear it, it sounds like little metal insects; in the inanimate driving forces of life (CONNECT!) are duller, but still there: light is like a fog heavy with bodies of fine insect only seeming invisible but surely there as any molecule or oxygen; may-be even you get used to it, so you cease to see it; shame i:m so senseless; really liking design of don zauker and UFO theme in pynchon--daitarn 3: invincible machine! mars and cold-pressed machine

Hello, hope you are well. I wanted to ask if music really interests you, and if you listen to any bands or music that really provoke you positively.
hi anonymous; no, i go out of my way to avoid listening to music, and i have no musical inclination; even if i like music i can:t help but know that it is filled with something evil and controlling, and if it provokes a passion and it seem positive (or even negative) it still must be that evil controlling will selecting those positive levers to control.
are there musics i like? surely; am i weak to music? surely as anyone else; is the sin within the music interesting: absolutely; it:d all be repeating the same answer though about music i:ve liked and listened to and about hasn:t changed since my 'music-fasting': gezebelle gaburgably gaburger were the last album i gave a lot of passion to and remains a favorite -- but i don:t listen to music cept by happenstance now (comes on a radio; in the background; from a neighbor; within the air), and the last song i heard was some country song with "watermelon moonshine" in the chorus (catchy) -- i liked it. take care, yet your spirit is not your own and your spirit filled with louses invisible and gnawing and attached through an air invisible and musical and pulled from heaven with whispers both sweet inviting and encouraging the best of loves abstraction could only offer and a lifefulness best beset within server in propagation of divine CONNECT(!).

without nightmare kill team 40k boxed set preorder as far-off goal to hope for (as distant admirer): needing something else; learning language in order of interest: say spanish, hebrew, japanese; so little time, though; low on passion, too; think i need CONNECT(!) to have more passion and thoughts like these and children like these (say: the post itself, and thought itself) louse by the Invisible; etiquette mandates that the louse be plucked and excised and the child (say: the post itself, and thought higher up in hierarchy) with it; then: silence; in sermon: notes for orsday programming: that the corpse itself underground be circulate with life though yet dead and blood pumping; imagine blood pouring slow like ooze in vase as echo of blood pouring from side-wound of wide invisible body of a god and that be physical representational echo (the blood; separate of the spirit in air) be the demon made flesh; circle like that and thought via etiquette demands disCONNECT(!) and thought via louse demands CONNECT(!) -- and no dispassion achieved or passion; and kill team nightmare 40k boxed set preorder impossible obtain in 41st millennium @ 140$ price-point; bugs and insect and fluid inside each, each in-turn inside a jar; observed inside-out from eye and body invisible made visible inside-out from jar outside insect fluid inside jar and outside, throughout; or such-and-such or what-ever; the day is too long and all:s there to do is look forwards to cooking

Hi Mara, I am right handed. I'm interested in learning to use my left hand as well and to learn mirrored writing out of curiosity. I also think that it might be good for me to be able to write/ read in both directions. What do you think about this?
hi anonymous;
if you think it sounds fun, great; if you think it makes you left-handed to do so in regards to the segregation of chirality: it does not, you are immutably right-handed forever; take care & happy easter, anonymous

hi mara, i found your blog quite randomly, and i feel a sense of comfort from your posts. im not sure how to explain this fully, on account of general burnout, but i feel more at ease whilst reading your posts. they have a familiar feeling to them that i cant exactly explain. thank you for posting, please look after yourself

hey anonymous; is that so? for me: i take comfort in thinking about ABA(!) -- i have this mental game i:ve been playing since i:ve seen the trailer for her where i imagine wasting my pay on strive and her dlc (?) and then maybe trying her in practice for a few minutes and alt+f4ing 'cause i:m too bored; but it flows further: i imagine maybe if i took a chance and made a connection with another person and grinding Strive together like back when i:d play KOF with friends over voice and had fun; and then ABA becomes a key (ha) to tool me to connect, to may-be be the excitement i need to start having more pits and valleys and hills in my life instead of the same slow march deeper into a quiet boring life (but isn:t that how the control starts? suddenly ABA is another operant lever installed inside to control me to CONNECT!); or so-and-so; really love the design, may-be best to admire from afar and not covet the material to be a simple tool to fix a dear flaw in myself.
any-ways!
it:s orsday sabbath, overlapping with the 7th day sabbath, and i wrote another weekly programming post, + i have sermon notes and some bad sketches of my pastor since i went to church, too;
read it here if you:d like
