Notes by TK

Kyroot to :07.

Commentary relevant to Evoteck/Paradigm activities and Group in general. When an organism becomes more complex—deals with more people—It requires a more complex infrastructure. Life can prevent, within the Group, people from hearing the Revolutionary Info presented by arranging the ordinary (like faulty memory) to interrupt the flow. Life has its own governor/safety valve related to Rev.

Info which comes into action at the level of the small-time, relatively low-level events vs. earthshakingly important ones. Life has a ‘laziness’ involved with not having to go beyond the binary to effect its growth at man’s level. This laziness manifests thru man by having him participate in the Revolutionary behavior rather than Itself do so. Thus the whole enterprise is sabotaged in a way.

The current flow (three circuits) of man are measurements themselves reported back to Life, that it is too lazy to make Itself. Thus it seems to man that he can somehow not act in his own best interest. Man should ask what is the purpose of such reports to himself that are not satisfying; to what end? Man takes personally the measurements he is forced to make by/for Life. Moral-emotional measurements are increasingly required by Life of man.

Human life is a non-sarcastic non-hostile burlesque of its professed behavioral reality/goals; it is humorous. In a quite real sense Life is too lazy to do for itself what man does for it. The RR should have an equivalent regent internally capable of effecting such behavior of the People as Life effects in Man.

And Kyroot Said…

Don’t be cute unless you’re prepared to back it up with some
NON-cuteness.

***

A Real Revolutionist shouldn’t have a change of clothes.

***

Have you yet to realize that under ordinary conditions there
is a serious question as to whether Man’s attempts to “do good”
do any good?

***

Never leap to your death from the heights of someone else’s
opinions.

***

Then I heard that one ole sorehead’s sister bemoaned, “I’m
just the watercress on the fashion-plate of life.”

***

A true intellectual would never think the same thing twice;
a true artist would never paint the same thing twice; a true
warrior would never do the same thing twice, and a Real
Revolutionist would never.

***

The other Greenday, I overheard a Revolutionist-look-alike
mumble, “Even though I am by far the smartest man I’ve ever met,
or hope to meet, even I’M not all THAT impressive.” (If you
wanna get shown, that just goes to show you.)

***

Only a half-price fool blames ALL his problems on his
furniture.

***

What a sham! What a rip-off! Being half-pissed costs the
same as being full-pissed!

***

Writers who quote other writers should be stopped from
writing. Thinkers who refer to other thinkers should be
reupholstered.

***
Another possible commentary on most people’s upcoming demise
is, “You’re gonna run out of time before you run out of excuses.”

***

Read this astounding piece of wisdom in a City book, “They
give only useless gold who give only from a sense of duty.” Now,
are you really expecting me to comment on how little Men know of
gold, uselessness, or duty?

***

A surprising, but apt cry I heard in the City, “Hey, you’re
melting too fast.”

***

Religious beliefs are to perception as formaldehyde is to a
marathon.

***

Don’t wrestle gnats…(or pole vault with pygmies.)

***

Far beyond the grip of City influences and urban battles,
the Real Revolutionist executes His own form of Agreeable Inner
Conflict.

***

In the tingling midst of a burly City crowd, a voice cried
out, “But force is no cure”, and was immediately answered by
another which said, “Yeah, but it’s a helluva treatment.”

***

Beware the toe jam of the mind.

***

No matter what others may believe, or institutions may
announce, the Revolutionist knows that all resources are not yet
exhausted, or all possibilities yet explored.

***

If NO ONE, including your dearest and closest friends, knows
what you think, you may be on to something.

***

When it comes to certain “in-town-communiques”, sex says it
all.

***

To some, I guess a Real Revolutionist could appear un-
sentimental, but this is simply because He doesn’t wallow in the
past…or in the fucking present, for that matter.

***

Many City People believe they won’t let appearances fool
them, but the Revolutionist must also guard against this idea
itself.

***

A truly jaded City-ite would be one who goes to sleep
reading their own biography.

***

A doubly jaded sophisticated City-ite would be one who wrote
their autobiography as a roman a clef under a pseudonym.

***

If you have to explain what your art means, it don’t mean
nothing.

***

In all the states, in all the Cities, all Men have their
national deities, and tribal gods, while in the Bushes the
Revolutionist has only His book of dried figs, and a case of B-
flat mouthpieces.

***

A real thinker would never use such words as “imaginary” as
a censure, but would leave it to the City-sighted to make their
own distinctions between their apparent reality, and their not-
so.

***

Never trust a god who’s between jobs.

***

Thirst is a dangerous thing, and REAL thirst is REAL
dangerous.
