The best living writer in America. What a treat.

Brontez Purnell is a queer global legend.

I'm really enjoying this book. Although since I picked it up I've spent a small fortune on Jazz records including a UHQR pressing of Kind of Blue and many, many other Jazz records, including a bunch of Bill Evans. After watching this interview I'm going to pour myself a glass of bourbon, put on a Jazz record and enjoy reading this book.

This is awesome, thank you! I sell so many copies of this title at Book Soup in LA. My mentor was Tosh Berman, whose book you published. What an amazing presentation - :)) Amelia C.

Excellent. Thank you.

I understand interactive arts and arts used to incite awareness, involvement, and change. I also understand how paintball is an extreme sport and a game...a game with boundaries. These results were a bit predictable. There are plenty of completely unhinged psychological studies like this that traumatized subjects. And how many saw this as another online game? I don't understand setting yourself up for additional trauma unless...unless this could be a form of self-harm

I am translating Mosab's poetry in Urdu. I am delighted to watch this interview. Thank you.

love

Brilliant! Thank you Joel for such a uniquely delivered book!!

I just listened to her on WTF with Marc Maron. She was brilliant and didn’t sound like this is all. I believe she’s HAMMERED. She’s slurring. She was so quick witted with Marc, firing off shit that was killer smart. Marc is a sober person and she killed. Grrrl…you’re my new idol but hey, been there. But-not you’re best moment 😂

i just wish i could’ve been a part of this community or if lesbians now could have this community where i live

Paul Peart Smith should do graphic novel versions of Roxanne Dunbar Ortiz's memoirs. They are great books that would really lend themselves to that format.

The first reading is a spiked iron club swung vigorously in a spirit of militant linguistic and economic exclusivity. Quit your Google job now and stop helping with the construction of systems of global incarceration, the real purpose of Automated Insanity. I long ago ceased finding this Landish language fun or interesting. Only Deleuze could do it with Actual Intelligence. Bertram : White Supremacy but also Rich Supremacy. Entitlement to decide for others without discussion or consent how their lives shall be organized (to the chief advantage of . . . WHO?) Hakopian: The AI weapon should include all identity groups so that all it's myriad attendant dangers can be deterred in the same way DEI and Identity Politics have solved all our political economic problems. Johnson : I have, with cut-ups, cut-outs (from other poets poems), and stream of consciousness on insomniac nights, created better "new lines of thought time in scrambled animal communication that form synapses with Joyce and the university of Mu," without any digital aids. Styles : "Tobe human today is to be transhuman and all that that implies," she said from her perch at Microsoft. All that that implies. All that that implies. What class of humans will be most advantaged by their Brave New superhuman augmentations and what will be the nature of their relationship with the rest of humanity that will be dragged into this future that is IMPOSED upon them? Haven't we seen this movie before? In this age there will be no humans and no poetry. I hope my comments are taken as critical and not disrespectful. I believe humans will do with AI what they do with all technology : use it---certainly not for poetry!---to control, dominate, subjugate, extirpate, cleanse the human of poetry and all other activities that subvert oppressive systems. (See China). Poets should be singing insightful human warnings about this techno rape on a mass scale. I think we will be in the future what we are now unless we wake up a little more. AI won't wake us up, it will be a more effective tool for maintaining the "empire of sleep" until we all doze off into oblivion.

James Kelman is one of the greatest writers of all time, a great advocate of anarchism in it's true, socialist, sense.

Several months ago, I was in the waiting room of a dental clinic in Costa Rica patronized by many from US. Also in the waiting room was a loquacious gentleman of distinctive countenance who was obliviously also from from the US. He said (among many other things) he was 76 years old. About a month ago I was watching one of these James Elllroy videos and realized that the guy in the waiting room looked, walked and talked exactly like Mr. Ellroy and was the same age. I don't why he went to Costa Rica for dental care, but it must have been him.

Great poet, also good writing teacher.

How do i join the anti globalisation movement

Coming here after the 2024 National Book Award for Translated Literature Longlist announcement.

Another creepy poser.

I recommend the whole Liminal series. Good stuff.

Capital in the web of life (cancer) spreading metastases since 1500 through colonialism (economic exploitation, extraction of resources, and commodification of nature and human beings) and neocolonialism (debt enslavement and financialization of nature), from the search for profit to parasitic financial rent-seeking. Cloud capitalism is the newest layer in rent-seeking parasitic capitalism. It is still capitalism.

Without good reason, the interviewer gives away Solenoid's miraculous conclusion at about 1 hour

Godspeed and save Yanis Varofakis a true champion of the people

Capitalism is feudalism, ownership of people and pure unscrupulous slavery, terminology has changed, nothing else, kings are now "entrepreneurs" and slaves "employees", actually literal cattle but cattle has been freed by technology while humans continue to produce abundance with their own hands for the minimum of moldy straw for food.

typical socialist, very good identifying the problem (loved the video until 25:35), then he gets to solving it, and as soon as he opens his mouth pure bullcrap comes out. Uber co-op lmao

I'm reading this book at the moment, thoroughly recommend it (bought from a bookstore, not Amazon! :) Yannis gives a very clear explanation of what can be a tricky concept. Thank you.

Great talk. Also love the fact that William Gaddis' cynical masterwork J.R. is seen on the shelf behind hte host.

Capitalism is dead. Neo liberalism ate it from the 1950'$

Speak clear. It is bankers who is taking over. It is sad you still speak in toungue. Spreading confution as usual.

This book as so good ! I almost want a part II !

Omg I love Amber tamblyn from. Koan of aracdia Didn't know she was in house lol Gonna watch house Martha now!

I'm reading JCO's "Little Bird of Heaven" at the moment... It's absolutely WONDERFUL!

Thank you for posting this

Thank you for having me!

In the intervew with Robert Scherer this year, Ron mentioned the movie 'Exodus' when discussing the Israeli war on Gaza. He mentioned the music from it and didn't get the names of the piano players quite right. They were Ferrante and Teicher, playing the theme song. While the movie was a clever piece of propaganda foisted on the American people to elicit sympathy for the young Israeli state, the theme song was really lovely.

❤❤❤

Fantastic.Thank you

Years after house is done masters is still cute as ever lol

…., no words…. ❤❤❤❤❤ really beautiful

'promo sm'

Artistic appreciation doesnt live by empirical truth! Depreciation of standard repetitive forms is progress snobbish or whatever thats how it is, buks fizz or elgar are not equal😅

This is wonderful! Im so glad I got to hear Joseph read and talk about his work, 4 months later! Thank you!

Judith Butler is a symptom of the intellectual bankruptcy of the American academy.

So glad Queer Theory is being rejected across society big time. QT needs to be booted out of the university and kicked back into the gutter where it belongs. Judith Butler is an evil Marxist who has done tremendous damage to Western Civilization.

Thank you all.

After the Cass Review none of what Butler talks about makes any sense. Gender confused people are simply suffering some some mental health. Butler's mumbo jumbo just complicate something that is fairly simple. Gender is the Cognitive Structure that represents Biological Sex. Regarding the issue about women's spaces, Butler complicates it with more mumbo jumbo when the issue is simple: women don't want men in their spaces. The "other group" are men! Why is butler protecting men? This lady is confused. Gender Ideology is dead and Butler is being irresponsible by doubling down on an ideology that looks more like a cult than science.
