Et in Arcadio ego: Chapter 10

Queer powder, brokeback malpais, merestone and a storytelling feat. We love Chapter 10.  Thank you so much for listening. Thank you for following us on Podbeam and Instagram and Substack. Don't be shy leave us a review...we can take it...even a bad one! Again we are so glad you are joining us on this adventure with the Glanton Gang. "[…] scientific corporations might well become independent states and be enabled to undertake their largest experiments without consulting the outside world […] The world might, in fact, be transformed into a human zoo, a zoo so intelligently managed that its inhabitants are not aware that they are there merely for the purposes of observation and experiment." Bernal, The World, The Flesh and The Devil 1929 "Language is always ambivalent. Its forms mutate and connect in unexpected ways. It's hard to instrumentalize language. But I think it's better to explore linguistic potentials than to keep on using language that's past its expiration date." McKenzie Wark " Modern man has transformed himself into a commodity; he experiences his life energy as an investment with which he should make the highest profit, considering his position and the situation on the personality market. He is alienated from himself, from his fellow men and from nature. His main aim is profitable exchange of his skills, knowledge, and of himself, his "personality package" with others who are equally intent on a fair and profitable exchange. Life has no goal except the one to move, no principle except the one of fair exchange, no satisfaction except the one to consume." Erich Fromm
