post-affliction

just realized the title and trajectory of this blog consigns it to an earnestness i'd rather not make the focus of all my writings.

anyway, in this post-postmodern world, who can afford to have a unitary expressive identity and cyberpresence? not me.

that said, out of curiosity and real desire, i am trying to devise a new name for a domain that would express all those things i aspire to integrate into my personality: theory-headedness, political righteousness/apathy, irony/sarcasm, techno-lust/incompetence/neurosis, paranoia, naivete, pop-culture indulgence/distance, etc.

of course, this just feeds me back into the wrong-headed dialectic loop, forever seeking uniformity.

maybe you can't teach an old dog new tricks. stay tuned here for more genetic fragments of memory and the unveiling of my new domain.
