I'm putting this blog on hiatus. This may be a permanent hiatus, it may be a temporary one, but right now i have way too much shit to deal with to continue to assume a jocular facade for the slim number of folks who read this thing, most, if not all, of whom i would much rather interact in a more communicative and egalitarian basis than one in which they read my attempt to make myself look less miserable than i currently feel and may or may not offer any response. On the other hand, continuing to post about how miserable i'm feeling strikes me as unfair and counterproductive, and open to misinterpretation from folks i care about way to much to make it seem like i'm accusing someone else of a causal role in my own bullshit. On top of that, the whole thing just strikes me as ridiculously adolescent, and while i'm still (somewhat) sympathetic to jesse michaels' anti-yuppie assertion "knew i never wanted to grow up if that meant being a man," there are certainly other paths and other adulthoods, if that makes any sense, which it proba bly doesn't. I don't like being sarcastic and it isn't fair to ask folks to read day upon day of whining or self-deprecation. The original goal of this particular blog was to explore issues of cultural politics and theory upon which i have rarely touched, so if this thing comes back, i think i'll be doing more of that and less complaining about the vagaries of being a "bastard of young." Thanks to everyone who's read any of the three blogs i've wasted over the past few years and good luck to all.
