WIKKI STIX: An Innocent Toy?

DON”T BE FOOLED. 

These Are WICCAN VOODOO DOLLS.

You think you innocently bend them into an amusing, harmless-looking stick figure.

A Lesbian in an alternative café down the block is contorted into writhing pain.

Or Camille Paglia is thrown to the ground in shock and agony, wherever she might be.

THESE PEOPLE ARE IN YOUR TOWN.

CARTESIAN, adj. Ambrose Bierce: THE DEVIL’S DICTIONARY

CARTESIAN,  adj. relating to Descartes, a famous philosopher, author of the celebrated dictum, Cogito ergo sum  –whereby  he was pleased to suppose he demonstrated the reality of human existence. The dictum might be improved, however, thus: Cogito cogito ergo cogito sum – “I think that I think, therefore I think that I am”; as close an approximation to certainty as any philosopher has yet made.

Guerrilla Comics: WHERE WE’LL BE BUYING OUR GASOLINE.

Interesting how this has gone- we may not have thought a huge decline in gasoline demand would be so early and obvious. Or leave such tidy relics. They’ve neatly left the sign- the building code must not have required its removal. Later (and in other environments), we imagine the derelict sites of gasoline stations may look rather different. What do you think?
