New: first part of a 90k-word essay on Heidegger’s reading of Hölderlin’s poetry and its relation to the confrontation with World Technology. This part involves a close-reading of Hegel’s theory of the End of Art and an explication of Heidegger’s "Der Ister" lecture.

Happy birthday Hölderlin on this first day of Spring. You would have loved living on the precipice of Armageddon. “You sense it then? It means that soon / They must come down to earth in a thunderstorm.”

Provoked by the character of Pausanias in Hölderlin’s “Death of Empedocles.”

It’s a mark of weakness and hysteria if one can’t handle “blackpilling” and instead needs constant happy words, needs to affirm everything that happens or needs to retain hope in things that are already dead

“Aesthetics” are neither theoretical nor practical, though they do share elements of each. The idealists (Hegel) and the progressivist-protestants (Tolstoy) are both wrong

Heidegger’s word “authenticity,” like so many of his others, nearly immediately served the opposite of its purpose, which was to defeat cliches— Anyway, we can now understand it in the sense of a password authentication, asking permission to enter into proper, ancestral humanity.

The Midwest talks shit about everything and everyone but as soon as you tilt the magnifying glass on them they start squirming. What are they up to? What rough beast slouches behind hicklibism?

Do you think these people wake up in the middle of the night from nightmares because of how crooked they are? Or does it all just slide off their consciences into a pool of amnesia and obedience?

What’s funny about this particular insult is that Joyce was educated in expensive Jesuit grammar and primary schools and the best Catholic university in Dublin, while Woolf was intermittently homeschooled.

Virginia Woolf’s diary entries on James Joyce’s Ulysses: “An illiterate, underbred book it seems to me; the book of a self taught working man, and we all know how distressing they are, how egotistic, insistent, raw, striking, and ultimately nauseating. … I finished ‘Ulysses’ and think it is a misfire. Genius it has, I think; but of the inferior water. The book is diffuse. It is brackish. It is pretentious. It is underbred, not only in the obvious sense, but in the literary sense. A first-rate writer, I mean, respects writing too much to be tricky; startling; doing stunts.”

“Trust the plan” should be the eponymous expression of our age. A naive faith in authorial structures replaced long ago, a time governed by knaves without the prerequisites for moral vision, twisted by lust & greed—now not even worthy temptations due to dislocation & plastic.
