Yet another good reminder that even other Anglosphere authors have to basically arm-wrestle US book editors to be allowed to retain any vestige of their own dialect and culture in their writing and this is why lots of people have Opinions about American...everything.

"I think it's sweet," Steve says.

Robin wrinkles her nose. "Nothing about Eddie Munson is sweet. He's a sewer rat, at best. Or like twenty opossums in a trench coat."

"Opossums are cute."

"He probably has rabies."

"You say that about me all the time, so I guess that's good. We'll have rabies together."

"He gave you a rock."

"You give me rocks all the time," Steve says, rolling his eyes. He runs his thumb along the textured edge of the rock Eddie'd handed to him.

"Yeah, good rocks." Robin scoffs. "That one sucks."

Spectacle et simulacre

La question du vrai culmine dans la société du spectacle sous la forme de sa ringardisation à la fois inaboutie, utopique. Son présentisme de façade est incapable de faire oublier le passé, d’actualiser le présent.

Le temps du simulacre est finalement, au-delà de Baudrillard lui-même, celui dans lequel la question même du vrai ne se pose pas, abolissant tout avenir et passé, c’est le « temps » d’une indéfinie nostalgie du réel, fondement de toute question, mais aussi celui où l’individualité se dissout totalement dans la catégorie, le jeu obsessionnel des catégories se remaniant indéfiniment de sorte à ce que jamais rien n’échappe au simulacre. Ainsi la notion même de rupture n’a plus de sens, car elle devient elle-même une catégorie du catéchisme global où plus personne n’existe, l’ « impersonnel » du spectacle n’étant lui-même finalement qu’une illusion. L’ « anti-globalisation » est de fait et par définition la forme la plus aboutie du simulacre, dans son absurdité intrinsèque d’une part, et prétendant s’opposer à un choix politique, donc à quelque événement du monde d’autre part. Le spectacle épuise « désormais » le réel et l’intelligence artificielle ringardise la question même de l’être qui ne se résume bientôt plus qu’à une apparence assumée.

Note ir-réaliste :

Dans une situation où le monopole de la violence et du spectacle appartient à nouveau exclusivement à la bourgeoisie (qui va jusqu’à prétendre être contre elle-même de nos jours avec une infaillible hypocrisie, se dissimulant derrière des slogans muraux, alors même que je connais précisément l’histoire de leur mensonge - féministe (*) par exemple - de près, ayant été plus ou moins impliqué dans différents mouvements contestataires) le crétin moyen n’est aujourd’hui « de gauche » qu’en se réclamant d’une dédramatisation (qui apparaît facilement comme critique du communisme) des totalitarismes stalino-mao-castro-…, qui effectivement l’ont toujours servi car il les a toujours servi lui-même « vaillamment », au bon moment, faisant preuve alors d’un classisme « salariste » (« ouvriérisme » réactualisé) censé être preuve irréfutable de sa bonne foi…alors même que dans son cas le rejet (liquidation) de la propriété est l’expression (« luxe » d’un nouveau type) d’une situation d’inclusion privilégiée. En effet il y a toujours ceux qui ne peuvent accéder à la propriété (logement, terrain), et ceux qui à l’inverse peuvent s’en passer car ils sont assez riches pour ça…et y tiennent !

Ce qui est toujours vrai :

« Le spectacle est une misère bien plus qu’une conspiration ».

« Les spectateurs ne trouvent pas ce qu’ils désirent, ils désirent ce qu’ils trouvent ».

« Le spectacle n’abaisse pas les hommes jusqu’à s’en faire aimer, mais beaucoup sont payés pour faire semblant » (histoire finalement virtuelle comme toutes les histoires).

« Ainsi l’un veut admirer dans mon film un lyrisme de la rage, un autre y a découvert que le passage d’une époque historique comportait une certaine mélancolie. D’autres, qui surestiment assurément les raffinements de la vie sociale actuelle m’attribuent un certain dandysme. En tout ceci cette vieille canaille d’époque poursuit sa manie de nier ce qui est et d’expliquer ce qui n’est pas ». Ceci devrait répondre à bien des inepties concernant Debord, toujours à l’ordre du jour.

Citations tirées de « Réfutation de tous les jugements, tant élogieux qu’hostiles, qui ont été portés sur le film « La société du spectacle » » (Guy Debord).

(*) L'imposture féministe a consisté à plaquer un schéma simpliste, à tendance essentialiste, récupérant pour ainsi dire les revendications légitimes des femmes (avortement, droit de vote, parole...), base "légitime" pour réactualiser aujourd'hui le sexisme par un biais paradoxal, ce que les féministes ne peuvent que nier évidemment, tout comme leurs "adversaires" de droite qui font mine de croire qu'on s'en prend à la différence sexuelle alors que le but est de la revaloriser. C'est donc toute une orchestration savante (à base de confirmation politicienne réciproque) en vue d'une restauration du sexisme sous la forme du sexe tout d'abord, puis finalement du genre (certes, une loi de 2016 permet sous conditions spécifiques le changement de genre (état civil) sans changement de sexe), n'en déplaise au dénégations des féministes, nous allons voir comment. Mais la ruse consiste à faire valoir par ailleurs les droits des minorités sexuelles, homos ou trans, sans pour autant accorder aux gays (non trans) d'être considérés comme "spécifiquement concernés" par les lois adoptées par Sarkozy contre le harcèlement ou le viol puisqu'ils restent des hommes (assez écœurant lorsqu'on sait que les "pédés" sont facilement victimes des violences en question). Et c'est justement là que je veux en venir : sous prétexte de lutte contre le harcèlement, les violences sexistes et le viol, ces deux derniers au moins concernant majoritairement les femmes, on crée des lois différentialistes (punissant plus sévèrement des violences faites aux femmes que les mêmes contre des hommes). On nous fait donc habilement confondre le fait que les femmes font le gros des victimes (et donc du problème, certes) avec le fait que les lois qui en découlent soient genrées (donc infantilisantes pour les femmes), comme si ça allait de soi, et on se retrouve face à une bataille médiatique spectaculariste dans laquelle deux camps s'affrontent : les "pour" (les nouvelles lois, ceux qui sont donc contre "les" violences, qui curieusement ne posent jamais le problème de l'étendue de ces lois) et le "contre" (au prétexte qu'il s'agit de privilèges accordés aux femmes (comme si ça épuisait la question) : on ne pose pas vraiment là non plus le problème de l'étendue des lois en question). Ce n'est pas parce que les victimes de violences sexistes sont majoritairement féminines qu'on se doit de faire des lois genrées, puisqu'on limite ainsi "bizarrement" leur portée (une femme harcelant ou violentant un homme au sein d'un couple, par exemple, n'est pas visée par les lois de 2010), de même que ce n'est pas parce que, mettons, des statistiques montreraient que les blonds commettent plus d'accidents de la route que les bruns, qu'il ne faudrait pas punir les bruns de la même façon lorsqu'ils en commettent, même si les blonds étaient responsable de l'importance que prend le problème, tout le monde reconnaîtra cela. A partir de cet exemple il est évident que la stratégie féministe consiste à finalement remettre au goût du jour le différentialisme (une représentation bornée et traditionaliste "améliorée" du genre) au nom de l'antisexisme face à une "dangereuse" histoire qui allait dans l'autre sens, ce qui est d'essence fasciste.

Au hasard de blogs parcouru, je me souviens être tombé sur une féministe qui par exemple reprochait littéralement à des femmes d'aller draguer en boîte et d'éventuellement coucher, ce qui reviendrait à un viol consenti ! On n'est pas là si loin de ces promoteurs du voile ou de sorties limitées au prétexte que cela "protégerait" les femmes.

Quant aux lois contre les signes religieux ostentatoires, qui autorisent à virer des filles, souvent voilées de force par leur famille, de l'école publique, no comment (il faut dire qu'on nous a présenté opportunément à l'époque le port du voile comme un choix... ce qui revenait à minimiser le problème, oh paradoxe !). Tout cela pour mieux justifier de ne pas faire son boulot éducatif au nom de la "liberté de conscience" ?

he looks so offended at the prospect of getting shit for laying down, and honestly i felt that in my soul

[balrogballs]

I'm still sad about this heartwarming and mildly amusing little section where feral adolescent Aragorn brings some joy to Maedhros in his unhinged little way, which I had to cut out of Cast in Stone for structural reasons, especially as I had gone to the trouble of illustrating it!

But I realised it reads perfectly fine standalone, so you guys can have my crumb of Maedhros-joy instead. No context required: Maedhros and Maglor are temporarily staying in the Shire during the late Third Age, Maedhros had a horrible night of traumatic dreams and was being maudlin — until young Aragorn, aka Elros II and the bane of his life, turns up like a bad penny, as he often does. Enjoy!

---

"You look unhappy," said Estel, sitting down before Maedhros, legs crossed. "Does your hand hurt? Surely it can't be as bad as when it got chopped off, can it?"

"No, but leave me be, Estel, I have —"

"All right, but let me ask just one question. I promise, then I'll go away. I just remembered something from my lessons, and every time I ask Ada he looks up at the sky and asks the Valar where he went wrong in raising me," Estel moved closer, looking around for eavesdroppers. "You don't have to tell me if you don't want to. But I would like to know."

Maedhros frowned, swallowed the lump in his throat and dragged in a breath. "What?"

"Fingon rescued you on one of those enormous eagles, didn't he? On that mountain with Morgoth and all of that. It was one of those, right? Manwë's Eagles."

"Yes. He did. I do not wish to answer any further questions on the matter, clear off."

"And it was quite a long journey, wasn't it?"

Maedhros grunted.

"I've always had a question about it… and again, you don't have to tell me if it's too traumatising," Estel's eyes shone, as though he were about to hear a state secret. "And I promise I won't tell anyone."

"Spit it out, boy, or leave me now. I am in the mood for neither company nor memory."

"Did it… you know…?"

"If you're trying to ask me if losing the hand hurt, yes it did," Maedhros snapped. "Now leave me alone, I've had enough reminiscing for a damned century. Get off home, now!"

"Oh, shut up, I wasn't asking about your stupid hand, I don't understand why you think everyone sits around thinking about your hand," Estel scowled, pursuing his lips, before deciding his quest for scientific knowledge was more important than whatever had crawled up Maedhros' arsehole and died. He widened his eyes conspiratorily, looked around again. "My question has nothing to do with that! I just wanted to know, did the eagle… you know?"

"Estel, I am not going to repeat this, get out of my sight right this —"

"Did it take a shit?"

"Did… what?"

"Did it take a shit?" Estel flushed as he said the word, Elrond's parental touch finally taking hold, though in a predictably useless manner. "And if it did, how big was it? As in, was it normal bird crap, or was it, you know — like a bucketload of it?"

Maedhros blinked. Estel held his hands out to demonstrate.

"I've always wanted to know that about them, you know," the boy continued, stroking his chin like a philosopher. "Manwe's eagles, that is. Surely if they're big enough to carry two people, one being a towering beast like you, their droppings must be massive."

"What…?" Maedhros couldn't formulate words, a state of being Estel clearly had no familiarity with. "Their… what?"

"And yes, I know they're divine, all of that, but surely they can't be toilet trained, can they? I just don't see Manwë having enough time to toilet train an eagle, you know. Could you imagine just… going about your day, and having this massive tub of birdshite fall on your head? Oh, it could drown a person, I'm sure of it!" Estel grinned, as if said occurrence would be the best day of his life, had it happened to him. "So, did it? And if it did, did you see if it went on someone?"

Maedhros sat there blinking at the boy in complete silence before rising quietly, taking the now-extremely-familiar ear, and slowly — like he were a corpse — leading Estel to the village gate. He didn't say a word, only gestured weakly and put up three fingers, a signal the now sulky boy was very used to.

And as Estel, muttering darkly all the while, neared the completion of his first punishment-lap of three around the village green, he heard something that sounded like a donkey in immense pain. It was a sound so tremendous and unexpected that it brought Maglor running from the house, gaping at the source, having not heard such a thing in centuries. It was no donkey, but Maedhros in complete hysterics, sitting on the ground exactly where he was when he beckoned Estel to run, sobbing with laughter, actual tears pouring down his face, which itself was screwed up and flushed so pink he looked like he'd been badly sunburned. He was trying to explain the situation to Maglor (who had been glaring at Estel as if he had personally killed his brother, and now looked upon him like he was Iluvatar himself) but Maedhros was howling too hard to even stand, let alone form coherent words.

Estel pretended not to notice, and started on his second lap. Though objectively speaking, the laugh itself sounded like something between a foghorn, a pig and whatever noise he imagined Ungoliant would make — there was something rather lovely about it that brought an inexplicable little smile to his face.
