I would like to forget how to read
If you would like to stop thinking
Go here
To this ivory-towered bastion of rationality and intellectualism
To where books written by dead men are resurrected
In unholy acts, gymnastic dance, live sacrifice
To that sacred site of youthful excess, go,
Drink down weekends-worth of flesh
In one sitting, standing, crawling
Act of movement.

maybe after all these years IWC is wholly vindicated

college is important and good in that it keeps a lot of people out of the job market

I'm on my phone so I'm not going to actually do it but pretend I linked the nymag article about how there might be more to college feminism than rape prevention.

"THE PARADOX OF MODERNITY"

The dead German....has now moved on
There was something here, I am sure of that. Now its gone.
What it was I don't know.
The court could not accept that.
Computer experts, electricians, and a plumber failed to find a cause.

Workplace is haunted
A defect in the property
Nazi occupation
A dead German soldier
still on the premises
messing with the brochures
I know I am not a total lunatic.

Don't let yourself be cheated
Whether you call them ghosts or spirits or something else, they exist.
Explain the inexplicable
Cleanse haunted houses
Convince the energies to leave
though
I can't guarantee that it will work.

Sigmund Freud, Karl Marx and other theorists predicted
Humanist Association
Instead
Tibetan eye readers, New-Age crystal collectors
and hundreds of other practitioners
Electromagnetic pulses that can be detected on a simple instrument
Inexplicable computer breakdowns, strange smells and noises
A princess coaching people on how to reach out to spirits
whose existence they had all felt and come to fear
Creatures with white sheets and black eyes
A jamboree of the occult
Filling the vacuum

Ugh mom. YOu just don't understand.

I'm a lesbian in a mans body who has chosen to be a DickGirl because IMO it's the only morally acceptable thing to do. You can read it on my tumblr.

this is what i leanred in College.
