Is anyone else not feeling that patriotic for July 4?
  • Hmm let me see. True former colonies include Cuba, the Philippines and Liberia. The Panama Canal Zone. Hawaii was unceremoniously annexed, as were Guam and Puerto Rico. And a host of smaller islands.

    In a broader sense, Vietnam, Afghanistan and Iraq are also very happy they’re once again independent from the US.

    In an even broader sense, most US allies are working for independence from the unreliable US as we speak.

  • There is a reality-translator built into me. It translates raw reality into the familiar time, space, things, people etc.
  • 3. The true world--unattainable, indemonstrable, unpromisable; but the very thought of it--a consolation, an obligation, an imperative. (At bottom, the old sun, but seen through mist and skepticism. The idea has become elusive, pale, Nordic, Königsbergian.)
