Never resting, never tiring;
Not in silence dismal, dull,
Without action or desiring;
Not in brooding introspection
Bowed beneath a yoke of pain,
So that yearning, dream and action
Unfulfilled to us remain."
Bertolt Brecht. Questions From a Worker Who Reads.
After some discussions you just want to engrave this poem in a slab of concrete and beat people around the head with it. This is not one of those days, but I woke up with the onset of a hangover and drank a lot of water so this is serving as an emotional barrier against the potential onslaught.
Sylvia Plath (via incorrectsylviaplathquotes)
Sylvia goes out with her mate Stella, it gets poured all over her fella, cos she says man he ain’t no better, than the next man kicking up fuss.
Never not misread Tolstoy as Trotsky.
Never seen a Tolstoy quote I liked.

I am, within the confines of reason, elated to announce to you that Libertarianism: A Novel has finally been completed and may be found at the above link. This long-awaited aesthetic treatise on the philosophy of FREEDOM and LIBERTY, with a special introduction by none other than Ludwig von Mises, should serve to clarify the various misgivings of those who would seek to castigate individual self-determination and the glory of the free market. Consider this as a warning: to approach this text as anything other than a TRUE INDIVIDUAL one must be willing to risk all of one’s systems and values. The truth is not political, it is just correct.
Special thanks to Sam Stein for cover design/layout, and to Evelyn Pappas for putting me in touch with Ludwig von Mises.
Sharing of the text is encouraged and indeed almost obligatory, though not without the proper adjustments to allow for perpetuation of the free markets whose praises every word contained herein can be said to sing.

more like

disgusting
and then you should
realize how this

I swear to fucking god I don’t do drugs. This is why no one should ever ask me to “introduce” my songs. I’m just trying to please the people, but I wish I’d just played it and left you with the lyrics as usual. Also , I fucked up the lyrics in the last verse but I’m too lazy to redo the video.
Some of us stay and some of us go
It all depends on what you think you’re capable of I suppose
You’ll sleep alone until the day that you die
Play all the cards that you’ve been dealt and never have a reason why
All of your success will be somebody else’s gain
And you will learn to play by all their rules
In all of their games
But I was born to bound
I am sure
To run away from you
I stick out my thumb to this town that I love
And all the dirty quiet places I come from
I’ve packed up my bags, and tied up loose ends
Closing up old wounds, and saying bye to older friends
I was born to bound
I am sure
To run away from you
