The WaPo’s commodity politics | InfiniteProse
https://infiniteprose.wordpress.com/2010/06/28/the-wapos-commodity-politics
You'll have things to repent, boy. And that's the best thing there is. The WaPo’s commodity politics. I’ve been following Dave Weigel’s resignation with keen interest, in part, because a.) he’s a decent person, and b.) he’s objectively a very good journalist, two characteristics which are rare in D.C. even on their own. Journalists that actually engage their subject matter this way will invariably stray from the well-worn paths of generic, lowest-common-denominator ideologies of the left or the right....

The sun may be setting on Afghanistan, long a central focal point for Obama since his campaign, as a target for military and development resources for the administration. The New York Times had a piece today on this shift in the Obama administration’s thinking on Afghanistan:. This thinking was echoed over at the Dreyfuss Report. Noting rumors that surge-advocate general McChrystal may qui...

One of the premiere cycling expos in the world. There are some pretty bad-ass things to come out of it (including folding helmets. And don’t worry, there is also the obligatory nod to the perennially and ever-astoundingly moronic “Che Face”:. I don’t know what is most maddening about this. Where to start, form or content? In content, I don&...

About the history of hip hop samples from old Stax recordings. They quote Rza on declining to use samples anymore because of how expensive the royalties can be, which raises interesting questions about musical creation in the age of Producing as its own art-form.

Whitman | InfiniteProse
https://infiniteprose.wordpress.com/2010/07/06/whitman
You'll have things to repent, boy. And that's the best thing there is. Stuck in my cubicle in a Baghdad bunker, I’m hungering to interact with the natural world freely and unencumbered by T-walls, concrete, the hum and stink of diesel generators. In a city of fractured chaos, crumbled and depleted, its river a shallow saline toxic cripple of its former self, I yearn for clean grass and fresh air. I read Whitman. Houses and rooms are full of perfumes, the shelves are crowded with. The feeling of health, t...
