Me and Tricia this summer.

So, how do we win? Is there an olympics? Can I fly the Am. Samoan flag around as I drink? These are the important questions.

“

“While desire focuses on the other, always in a somewhat fetishist[ic] manner, on particular objects, like breasts, buttocks and cock,” writes Badiou, “love focuses on the very being of the other, on the other as it has erupted, fully armed with its being, into my life that is consequently disrupted and re-fashioned.”

In other words love is, in many respects, the opposite of sex. Love, for Badiou, is what follows a deranging chance eruption in one’s life. He puts it philosophically: “The absolute contingency of the encounter takes on the appearance of destiny. The declaration of love marks the transition from chance to destiny and that’s why it is so perilous and so burdened with a kind of horrifying stage fright.” Love’s work consists in conquering that fright.

Alain Badiou has a new book, In Praise of Love. And I feel like perhaps he’s getting the closest to what I’ve wanted to articulate, the interplay between love as a thing that happens to you, a feeling you can’t help or change, and love as a thing that you do and a think that you work at. So many people posit it as one or the other but not both.

(ordered the book, will have Thoughts and Feelings.)

“Yet soil is miraculous. It is where the dead are brought back to life. Here, in the thin earthy boundary between inanimate rock and the planet’s green carpet, lifeless minerals are weathered from stones or decomposed from organic debris. Plants and microscopic animals eat these dead particles and recast them as living matter. In the soil, matter recrosses the boundary between living and dead; and, as we have seen, boundaries-edges-are where the most interesting and important events occur.” — Toby Hemenway, Gaia’s Garden: A Guide to Home-Scale Permaculture (via fuckyeahpermaculture)
