are you on something lately? you post a lot more

Yeah I’m on a lot of things lately. I’m on a lot of stuff. I’m on Adderall. I’m on Zoloft. I’m on the grindset. I’m on that good shit. I’m on the down low. I’m on the up and up. I’m on the verge. I’m on cloud nine. I’m on the tip of your tongue. I’m on your mind. I’m on your nerves. I’m on fire. I’m on fleek. I’m on a roll. I’m on my way. I’m on the lookout. I’m on the radio. I’m on the verge of tears. I’m on the defensive. I’m on the cusp. I’m on the case. I’m on the road. I’m on the run. I’m on the same page. I’m on the mend. I’m on the inside. I’m on the right track. I’m on the path. I’m on the prowl. I’m on the brink. I’m on the phone. I’m on the table. I’m on the way. I’m on the street. I’m on the site. I’m on the edge. I’m on the level. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out. I’m on the down and out.

I need to make, I don't know, a video essay or something. To make the point to normies that like, George Bush and a bunch of other mainstream political figures in recent US history have been war criminals, no, not like in some radical left wing activist speak way like just in a centrist liberal I think the UN charter means something straight up these guys are literally actual war criminals, no, I know, everyone calls everyone war criminals and fascists these days I get it I get it your least favorite politician is like hitler but no not like that like literally, these guys are literally war criminals who committed war crimes in a literal, actual, they actually did it not a theoretical what if it happened here it could happen here way no not like that, like, just regular, actually, just straight up, I cannot express to you how moderate and not radical and just straight up literal regular this opinion is way, war criminals who did actual specific major war crimes that killed a bunch of people and they should probably be in prison, really, really I promise, these guys should be actually in prison probably

"The North Korean regime in the ‘50s developed a series of remarkably effective torture techniques, techniques that were so effective, in fact, that they were able to make captured American airmen admit to all sorts of atrocities they had not in fact committed, all the time, being convinced they had not, actually, been tortured. The techniques were quite simple. Just make the victim do something mildly uncomfortable—sit on the edge of chair, for example, or lean against a wall in a slightly awkward position—only, make them do it for an extremely long period of time. After eight hours the victim would be willing to do virtually anything to make it stop. But try going to the International Court of Justice at The Hague and tell them you’ve been made to sit on the edge of a chair all day. Even the victims were unwilling to describe their captors as torturers. When the CIA learned about these techniques—according to Korean friends of mine, they’re actually just particularly sadistic versions of classic Korean ways of punishing small children—they were intrigued, and, apparently, conducted extensive research on how they could be adopted for their own detention centers.

Again, sometimes, in Palestine, one feels one is in an entire country that’s being treated this way. Obviously, there is also outright torture, people who are actually being shot, beaten, tortured, or violently abused. But I’m speaking here even of the ones that aren’t. For most, it’s as if the very texture of everyday life has been designed to be intolerable—only, in a way that you can never quite say is exactly a human rights violation. There’s never enough water. Showering requires almost military discipline. You can’t get a permit. You’re always standing in line. If something breaks it’s impossible to get permission to fix it. Or else you can’t get spare parts. There are four different bodies of law that might apply to any legal situation (Ottoman, British, Jordanian, Israeli), it’s anyone’s guess which court will say what applies where, or what document is required, or acceptable. Most rules are not even supposed to make sense. It can take eight hours to drive 20 kilometers to see your girlfriend, and doing so will almost certainly mean having machine guns waved in your faces and being shouted at in a language you half understand by people who think you’re subhuman. So you do most of your dalliance by phone. When you can afford the minutes. There are endless traffic jams before and after checkpoints and drivers bicker and curse and try not to take it out on one another. Everyone lives no more than 12 or 15 miles from the Mediterranean but even on the hottest day, it’s absolutely impossible to get to the beach. Unless you climb the wall, there are places you can do that; but then you can expect to be hunted every moment by security patrols. Of course teenagers do it anyway. But it means swimming is always accompanied by the fear of being shot. If you’re a trader, or a laborer, or a driver, or a tobacco farmer, or clerk, the very process of subsistence is continual stream of minor humiliations. Your tomatoes are held and left two days to rot while someone grins at you. You have to beg to get your child out of detention. And if you do go to beseech the guards, those same guards might arbitrarily decide to hold you to pressure him to confess to rock-throwing, and suddenly you are in a concrete cell without cigarettes. Your toilet backs up. And you realize: you’re going to have to live like this forever. There is no “political process.” It will never end. Barring some kind of divine intervention, you can expect to be facing exactly this sort of terror and absurdity for the rest of your natural life."

remember when tom lehrer said “Unfortunately, the civil liberties types who are fighting [obscenity laws] have to fight it […] As a matter of freedom of speech and stifling of free expression and so on. But we know what's really involved: dirty books are fun! […] It's simply a matter of freedom of pleasure, a right which is not guaranteed by the Constitution, unfortunately.”
