I'd Like to Ritually Shove Postmodernism's Head Up Its Insane Ass!

I am sitting here at a computer at Berkeley, California's Piedmont House travel hostel, sending out networking messages to realize a group solidarity situation on the New York City to Washington D.C. materialistic power strip.  I want to be there performing spiritual rituals and doing direct action for the purpose of shoving postmodernism's head up its insane ass! 


 I am very unhappy about the idiocy of the current political primaries, in which a lunatic Republican and a visionless time's-up Democrat are the only candidates allowed to debate on national television, with other worthy candidates, (such as from the Green Party), not being allowed to participate.

I think that social life here in postmodern America is spiritually pointless, that the average citizen doesn't fundamentally know what is going on, and that the consumerist pop culture is slowly going mad.

I am ready to leave here and proceed to the New York City--Washington D.C. power strip as soon as possible.  I am accepting cooperation to go somewhere upon arrival, because what else would I do to get active again there?

Where the hell am I supposed to live...in a tree in winter?  Where is the solidarity, and why did Occupy ever stop functioning on the east coast?  Fair weather radicalism is worse than stupid!

Happy, Happy, Happy

New Year's Eve greetings my fellow Americans, Although I see no magic particularly in regard to the date of December 31st, I have nevertheless brought in a box of chocolates for the Piedmont House travel hostel in Berkeley. I look forward to taking rest at the relatively early hour of 10 pm but for the rest of the region, the BART train will run until 3AM.
    
I have not received any offers of solidarity on the east coast to return there, after continuously sending out messages stating that I am eager to get on an air plane, have some money, don't give a hoot about the annual winter weather, and am uncertain what to do about this.  

I don't think that a "fair weather radicalism" is going to work for me; since that would imply that there is not really any serious problem.  Indeed, I am not getting any favorable responses to return to the NYC-D.C. power strip for more front line activity against the insane idiocy which we have been collectively protesting against for around 50 years, for some of us, so I sit here tonight in front of the travel hostel computer, wondering just what I am going to do.

If you agree that this is insufferably stupid, go ahead and contact me.  I need to give the travel hostel two more weeks worth of money on Sunday if I wish to be here longer.  But then, I do not have any reason to be here any longer at all.  Maybe I just don't relate to postmodernism.

Happy New Year, Craig Louis Stehr

Place to place...

I will be at Berkeley's Piedmont House hostel located at 2434 Piedmont Ave. between Haste & Dwight (Telephone 510-849-4800) from Monday November 24th until noon December 1st.  

Am leaving Green Tortoise hostel at 11AM Monday morning; I may arrive at the Berkeley hostel before the check-in time, stash my backpack, leave and then return for the formal check-in.  This sums up my immediate itinerary.  ;-)

To reinvent my social life in postmodern America

Hey everyone, In my zeal to reinvent my social life in postmodern America, I have discovered the Temple of Bliss in San Francisco http://www.templeofbliss.com.  As you know, I published "Not Confusing the Political with the Personal" on the NYC IMC recently, and I am really really really asking everyone to fully grok how we have to be intelligent in regard to the fact that we are NOT direct action machines for anybody or anything! We all need to be fully there for one another, which means that the entire individual is respected, not only the aspect which is politically active.  


Yo, I'm glad that the public appreciates my 40 years of radical activism in all of its manifestations, but I'd like the public to stop shopping for two minutes, and appreciate that if it weren't for the radical environmental and peace & justice frontline participants, the general public wouldn't have a future worth a shit on earth.

Thanks for listening, contact me anytime, let's give and receive more love for ourselves, 
Craig Louis Stehr
