    texte :

    Emperor Norton

    Joshua Norton, or as he preferred to be called, Norton I, proclaimed himself Emperor of the United States and Protector of Mexico in 1859.

    Although a pauper, he was fed free in San Francisco’s best restaurants.

    Although a madman, he had all his state proclamations published in San Francisco’s newspapers.
    While rational reformers elsewhere failed to crack the national bank monopoly with alternate currency plans, Norton I had his own private currency accepted throughout San Francisco.

    When the Vigilantes decided to have a pogrom against the Chinese, and sane men would have tried to stop them, Norton I did nothing but stand in the street, head bowed, praying. The Vigilantes dispersed.

    ’When the proper man does nothing (wu-wei), his thought is felt ten thousand miles."
    —Lao Tse

    Although a fool, Norton I wrote letters which were seriously considered by Abraham Lincoln and Queen Victoria.

    "You must take the bull by the tail and look the facts in the face."
    —W.C. Fields

    Although a charlatan, Norton I was so beloved that 30,000 people turned out for his funeral in 1880.
    "Everybody understands Mickey Mouse. Few understand Hermann Hesse. Hardly anybody understands Einstein. And nobody understands Emperor Norton."
    —Malaclypse the Younger, K.S.C.

    “You can put in jail, but you cannot give me narrower quarters than as a seaman I have always had. You cannot give me coarser food than I have always eaten. You cannot make me lonelier than I have always been.”

    Anarchist conference & Festival, July 20-25 1989, San Francisco

    The 1989 Anarchist Conference/Festival will be the fourth annual gathering of political, cultural and community activists and others from across North America and around the world who share an anti-authoritarian spirit. We gather to share experiences and ideas, celebrate alternative culture, strengthen our work for radical change and social revolution, build community and have fun. The five days will include discussions, workshops, skills-sharing, performances, cultural events, networking, celebration, and much,much more. Interested ? Call :
    Without Borders (415)864.4674

    Anarchy : A self-governed society in which people organize themselves from the bottom up on an egalitarian basis ; decisions made by those affected by them ; direct democratic control of our workplaces, schools, neighborhoods, towns and bio-regions with coordination between differing groups as needed. A world where women and men are free and equal and all of as have power over our own lives, bodies and sexuality ; where we cherish and live in balance with the earth and value diversity of cultures, races and sexual orientations, where we work and live together cooperatively.

    texte :

    Get clear !

    (ass)holism

    Aquarian/New Age transformations

    Creative death

    Recent studies suggest that consciousness is carcinogenic. After a survey of the ethics of entropy, the following topics receive terminal treatment : (1) Dying as a process of personal growth ; (2) Charnel knowledge ; (3) Thanatotherapy (with emphasis on Adolfing and "terminal scream" therapy) ; (4) Auto-necrophilia for the Me Generation. Mentor : Rev. Jim Jones, Posthumous Prof. of Thanatology.

    Wholistic wealth
    This course has helped hundreds of doctors, lawyers, and other parasites to feel okay about being obscenely rich. Material things are but Maya (= illusion) — still, they are your reward for virtue in a previous life. Learn to exploit your inner riches while holding on to your outer ones. Don’t share the wealth, share the experience ! (Tuition is tax-deductible.)

    Beyond vegetarianism : new paths in privation

    Gave up meat but still feel guilty ? So you should ! Since you are what you eat, eventually every vegetarian turns cannibal. This course introduces you to inanimate eating. You too can suck rocks and learn to like it ! The Course is a prerequisite to anaerobic stasis ("Good health through hypo-ventilation"), which explains how to eke out a miserable existence without immoral exploitation of the atmosphere.

    New age politics

    Recent developments in decentralized degradation and appropriate technocracy. Facilitator and Zen demagogue Jerry Brown will demonstrate the feasibility of harnessing politicians as a source of wind power. A Marin Corpse recruiter will appear on behalf of the Baloney Alliance to enlist no-nukes narcs and pacifist police. Others to be announced after security precautions are finalized.

    In the Flow

    The addled age of Aquarius is over. Wishing away the holistic horror of everyday life didn’t work. We were suckers to buy back parodies of our dreams of total transfiguration from holistic hucksters, consciousness con-men and awareness entrepreneurs. Their "alternative life-styles" only offer less of more of the same.

    There’s nothing new about a New Age of mysticism, masochism and money. "We ought not to act and speak as though we were asleep" (Heraclitus). The astrologers have only predicted the future ; the point is to create it. Paradise is possible. Don’t burn out, don’t sell out, break out. Why wallow in escapism when we can really escape ?
