Fatigue and Disgust
I'm sure I've written another blog post with that title, but I don't want to be bothered with finding it now. I am fatigued, and I am disgusted, and I may not post for a while. That doesn't mean I have given up blogging writing; I write but am not and have no interest in being a writer. Fish in the morning, hunt in the afternoon, criticize in the evening, while not being a fisher, hunter, or writer-remember that? As an ideal, it's not been forgotten, it's been repudiated. Another symptom of what's wrong with our culture: the professionalization (and therefore segregation/alienation) of basic creative and cognitive functions.
