“He has the striking leanness that sometimes goes with percussion. To play a battery well, a man listens to silence, until it splits itself open into rhythms, eventually into every conceivable rhythm. It does this because time is not a flow but a sequence of pulses.” #taleoftwoBergers

people who don’t vote… don’t vote they do not write op-eds in the national paper of record about how other people shouldn’t vote either unless they are pushing an agenda that has specific goals unrelated to voting

I can't tell you what art does and how it does it, but I know that often art has judged the judges, pleaded revenge to the innocent and shown to the future what the past suffered, so that it has never been forgotten.

Berger the dog’s full name is John Berger Carson Sarvas and so I’ve decided to accompany all dog pics with a JB quote: “I was scared of one thing after another. I still am. Naturally. How could it be otherwise? You can either be fearless or you can be free, you can’t be both.”

If Biden literally shat himself during one of the debates, his opponent would still be the guy openly vowing to send federal troops to take over cities, set up mass detention camps, and imprison his critics. The only sane position would still be Team Pants Shitter.
