there is nothing outside the txt

- we don’t “do” metaphysics, metaphyics “does” us

- i could think of plenty of witty and informative responses to that remark, but i will pointedly begin to correct exam scripts instead

- well then i will refrain from puncturing the vainity that you are pointedly maintaining by suggesting that you could not

- and i will refrain from correcting your spelling…

- now it wud ACTUALLY hav ben witty if u’d sed that if we don’t “do” spelling then spelling “does” us

- just glanced at starfrosting’s paper. looks good. we’ll move him to the messiah panel alongside the other obama paper. that should create lots of debate.

- great – gud luck in ur corrections. btw this ephemeral exchange is already on the blog.

- did starfrosting send a new title for his paper? if not, i’m going to provisionally call it “obama, messianism, and memory” in the thing i send to hugh silverman

- sure

- that’s hilarious on the blog. Seeing a text conversation in an extended format is weird. [Do not include this text on the blog - it's too self referential]

- too late – the self awareness of how passe it is to be too self referential makes the opportunity too good to pass[e] up referring to.

- i just knew you’d do that.

- it would have been dishonest not to. besides i’m just making publicly available a record of an exchange that the corporate state gestapo will be keeping on file for a mandatory minimum of three years…but now this is published on the blog before you actually get the text.

- i read that on the blog before you sent it to me by text. you’re breaking the rules. (p.s. THE END)

- you know that one can’t end anything; i can only pause the archiving operation here while the states’ continues.

-

- there is nothing outside the surveilance of the text. this has brought up some interesting questions re: consent.
