pearl_o said it best: "I am pretty sure with you, the orgies are inevitable no matter what."*
My life, as told by
pre_emptive: I am laughing at you writing a paper in heels, and at the bizarre sitcomishness of the laborer showing up at your door to be like, "I'm here to fix your roof! BTW, I am well-versed in both alternative lifestyle choices and art!"*
a dramatic insight into the creative process:
shoemaster: and it's fucking hot etben: well, yes etben: and then what?*
i just want a bottle of beer and a crate of things to smash
is that so much to ask?

As such, 'there are no "neutral" words and forms…; language has been completely taken over, shot through with intentions and accents. For any individual consciousness living in it, language is not an abstract system of normative forms but rather a concrete heteroglot conception of the world….Each word tastes of the context and contexts in which it has lived its socially charged life; all words and forms are populated by intentions. Contextual overtones (generic, tendentious, individualistic) are inevitable in the word.
As a living, socio-ideological concrete thing, as heteroglot opinion, language, for the individual consciousness, lies on the borderline between oneself and the other. The word in language is half someone else's.
