I must not buy chametz 2 weeks before Pesach. Buying more chametz is the mind-killer. Buying more chametz is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my my desire to buy more chametz. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the desire to buy more chametz right before Pesach has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

Authors (unless they are writing with no interest in money and no hope of immortality, for a readership of seamstresses, travelling salesmen, or lovers of pornography whose tastes at that specific time and in one given country are well-known) never write for their own specific kind of reader but try to construct a Model Reader- in other words, the kind of reader who, having accepted from the beginning the rules of the textual game on offer, will become the ideal reader of that book, even a thousand years later. What kind of Model Reader is Hugo thinking of? I think he had two kinds in mind. The first was someone reading in 1874, eighty years after the fateful year of 1793- someone who still knew many of the names of the Convention. It would be like someone in Italy today reading a book about the 1920s, who would not be taken completely by surprise at the sight of names like Mussolini, D'Annunzio, Marinetti, Facta, Corridoni, Matteotti, Papini, Boccioni, Carrà, Italo Balbo, or Turati. The second kind is the future reader (or perhaps even the foreign reader of Hugo's time), who- with the exception of a few names like Robespierre, Danton, and Marat- would have been bewildered in the face of so many unfamiliar names; but at the same time, he would have the impression of listening to endless tittle-tattle about the village he is visiting for the fist time and where he gradually learns to separate himself from the crowd of contradictory figures, to sniff the atmosphere to become accustomed little by little to moving about in that crowded arena where he imagines that each unknown face is a mask hiding a story of bloodshed and is, ultimately, one of the many masks of history.
-Umberto Eco, Hugo, Hélas! The Poetics of Excess

Industrial Waste Teapot, 1999
Tumblr media
Wesley Anderegg expresses his concern for the environment in Industrial Waste Teapot. Four figures wearing gas masks sit on top of what appears to be a corroding metal barrel. Each figure holds a book, a bomb, a Geiger counter, or a bug sprayer. The handle and spout have been molded to look like a pipe, while the lid of the pot is capped with a skull and bones. By placing these symbols on a pot that holds a liquid we will ingest, Anderegg conveys the idea that pollution not only contaminates the air around us but also makes its way into our bodies.

Honestly, honestly, antidepressants really helped me connect with my faith and take joy in scripture. Blessed is He who made a world with Citalopram in it.
