AUTHOR.CALHO: If I didn't write it, I would be hitch hiking cross country to Maine and then Alaska in that order. While taking frequent breaks to spread leaflets. And sit in diners. And write on things because I wasn't at a computer. I may still do that in a few years. Writing this also helps me forget about and better understand the limitations of being human, and keeps me busy enough to allow me no free time to burn the world down.

THEMATIC.ABOUT : Collapse often. The things that hold people together and hold them apart and scatter brains. The things that make thoughts go boom. The things that ooh and aah and [expletive deleted]. Sometimes poking around the margins where responsibility ends and the only one to look to is the Original Equipment Manufacturer and say "but, I already pressed 9 for more options and the menus are exactly the same. Can you just replace it?" The answer will be: "please hold." Sometimes hanging out in dark corners. Sometimes following the train tracks. Looking for ways out and ways in and all the while sharing the things seen and heard and done and drawn and written and scorched and healed and teased and caged and dreamed along the way.

Assimilation

It is a good thing.  If I ask you about something I may be trying to learn how to talk about or use your way or style to help me define my own.  With respect to citizenry and excellence and capturing the ability to pass on and spread worthwhile attributes.  Through assimilation I can help myself at a much faster rate than rote learning.  It is envy only because I cannot snap my fingers and erase every other human being on this planet.  Call it envy if that helps you sleep at night [it isn't].  Assimilation also lets me acquire skills and abilities that are already spread and common knowledge, abilities and behaviors necessary and very valuable in the advancement of coexistence.  If I am mimicking you it is because repetition assists in memorization and modification.
