"If trashpo has taught me anything its that every windblown street corner and cyclone fence is a veritable Dick Blick of free art materials."

Loving it, Lisa!

I'm with ya, Cleo! But how long will he continue to leave such remarks if they are not met with some sort of response? His mysterious ways intrigue and delight, and they must be encouraged, for I do confess that a weekly dose is nearly necessary for my personal amusement. :D

Comment by Claire (aka Cleo) on August 15, 2012 at 4:41pm

i think that's cool actually... he/she(?) comes and goes leaving gestures of pithy brevity - witticisms, puns, cryptic statements... the timing of these phrases - just appearing, often out of the blue, & often (seeming...?) quite non-sequitur, as it were, leaves a salient pungency in their wake which makes me smirk and think...

Comment by Lynn Radford on August 15, 2012 at 4:27pm

Poor Dark Wall... no one acknowledges he speaks... no wonder his presence is so elusive!

Having no photograph of your foot, I do wonder how much you obtained for said collection of pipe cleaners, DW...

Comment by De Villo Sloan on August 15, 2012 at 4:01am

My thought was that there really is D-Kult programing. That's why we're all here. I don't think that would be Diane, though. But there was the issue of DK-Ultra that no one ever addressed. A kult within the kult.

Comment by Nancy Bell Scott on August 15, 2012 at 2:26am

Part spaceship, part hospital--too familiar, in a beyond destiny sort of way. I hear it, I feel at home. I'm not kidding.

Stephanie, you've gone way above and beyond, for the greater trashpo good. May not only the trashpo world and the world that wishes to become it but also trashpo lovers as individuals all unite and reward you.

Comment by De Villo Sloan on August 15, 2012 at 1:44am

That shows D-votion, Stephanie. Only a hardcore Kulter would stand up (as DK says) to "The Man."  

Have you ever experienced "lost time"? A lapse in your memory & life you can't account for? But sometimes disturbing dreams of being somewhere - part spaceship, part hospital?

It's nothing. Many Kulters have reported it. But I'm sure it's nothing.

If they don't make it this time, we'll know it's a Toxis conspiracy

I sold my collection of pipe cleaners

Comment by De Villo Sloan on August 14, 2012 at 9:08pm

who has a picture of my foot?

Comment by Claire (aka Cleo) on August 14, 2012 at 9:02pm

what's very odd is that I'm really not into mimetic and/or pop images, or cute things [though I do like fun...%_^]...but, somehow, some of the individual elements that wouldn't send me, do in your juxtapositions/this context...You give them a whole new/different life! It's really brilliant imnsho!

Tech question: Can you tell me what labels they are [specs]? They really seem to vanish on the plastic...
