In the midst of the cold, wicked, and windy streets of Chicago, Deontay Miller and his right hand man, Chris, start out as petty hustlers in Cabrini Green housing projects one of the most notorious projects in America. (Home of TV’s own: Good Times, Cooly High, and Candy man just to name a few...). But once Doughboy, Chris cousin, turns them on to the drug game they apprehensively make the transition from stealing and selling bikes, to copping weight and distributing it in hand to hand transactions. Two years after being introduced to “The game” Deontay is now checking just as much bread as some of the older heads. But unfortunately for Deontay in the depts of the slums getting a little money often tends to make you a target, and Deontay is no exception. After refusing to be extorted by letting Black, the neighborhood bully “Hold something” a mere altercation escalades to Black making an attempt to Deontay’s life later on that night. But luckily Deontay escapes the hail of gun fire unscaved... The next day in broad daylight, Deontay murders Black in cold blood. This bold barbaric act captured the respect of his peers, causing Deontay’s name to ring throughout the streets.
Shocked by 9/11, the Great Recession, digital anxiety, and ecological collapse, the West suffers from nostalgia. People everywhere yearn for a utopian version of the past that never existed. Desperate for relief, many long to escape from the present. Some will stop at nothing to achieve it. In his essential new book, Grafton Tanner, author of Babbling Corpse: Vaporwave and the Commodification of Ghosts, argues that our nostalgia today is partly a consequence of the attention economy. At a time when historical literacy is crucial, and old prejudices are percolating into the present, Big Tech’s predictive algorithms are locking us into nostalgic feedback loops. The result is a precarious society with its gaze fixed on the good old days. Spanning from the ancient Sophists to Black Mirror, The Circle of the Snake is at once a reckoning with the myth of digital utopia and an incisive analysis of nostalgia as a weapon to spread fascism.
In some circles things sometimes just don't feel right because they aren't! This book is about REAL CONSPIRACY not "theory" - actual EVIL occurring every day in America. The stuff you always read about hidden in the shadows is TRUE. All of the events in this book actually happened. I know, because they happened to me and it's my story. This is a manual on how to stop Government Gang Stalking. It's reference for anyone experiencing any type of organized stalking. If you or someone you know is a victim then this manual was written for you. Only through education can we stop these insidious government activities and black projects. "Most people in the world do not care to be anarchists nor revolutionists and neither do I. However, sometimes our lots in life choose us rather than we choose our lots in life. So, when someone wants to make that choice for us, we must act. The system is broken - bent on ruling the world and controlling the population. It's up to us to free ourselves. - Bobby T
An occult thriller, scary, learned, and charitable in the true tradition of Charles Williams and his fellow Inklings, says T.A. Shippey, editor of The Oxford Book of Fantasy Stories. A remarkable witch's brew of supernatural, Christian, classical and scientific arcana.
When Alexander the Great died in 323 BC without a chosen successor he left behind a huge empire and ushered in a turbulent period, as his generals fought for control of vast territories. The time of the Successors (Diadochi) is usually defined as beginning in 323 BC and ending with the deaths of the last two Successors in 281 BC. This is a major publication devoted to the Successors and contains eighteen papers reflecting current research. Several papers attempt to unravel the source history of the very limited remaining narrative accounts, and add additional materials through cuneiform and Byzantine texts. Specific historical issues addressed include the role of so-called royal flatterers and whether or not Alexander's old guard did continue to serve into their sixties and seventies. Three papers reflect the recent conscious effort by many to break away from the Hellenocentric view of the predominantly Greek sources, by examining the role of the conquered, specifically the prominent roles played by Iranians in the administration and military of Alexander and his Successors, pockets of Iranian resistance which eventually blossomed into Hellenistic kingdoms ruled by sovereigns proclaiming their direct connection to an Iranian past and a continuation of Iranian influence through an examination of the roles played by certain of the Diadochis Iranian wives. The papers in the final section analyze the use of varying forms of propaganda. These include the use of the concept of Freedom of the Greeks as a means of manipulating opinion in the Greek world; how Ptolemy used a snake cult associated with the foundation of Alexandria in Egypt to link his kingship with that of Alexander; and the employment of elephant images to advertise the authority of particular rulers.
In the age of global capitalism, vaporwave celebrates and undermines the electronic ghosts haunting the nostalgia industry. Ours is a time of ghosts in machines, killing meaning and exposing the gaps inherent in the electronic media that pervade our lives. Vaporwave is an infant musical micro-genre that foregrounds the horror of electronic media's ability to appear - as media theorist Jeffrey Sconce terms it - "haunted." Experimental musicians such as INTERNET CLUB and MACINTOSH PLUS manipulate Muzak and commercial music to undermine the commodification of nostalgia in the age of global capitalism while accentuating the uncanny properties of electronic music production. Babbling Corpse reveals vaporwave's many intersections with politics, media theory, and our present fascination with uncanny, co(s)mic horror. The book is aimed at those interested in global capitalism's effect on art, musical raids on mainstream "indie" and popular music, and anyone intrigued by the changing relationship between art and commerce.
Since about 1985, crop circles have become a more well-known phenomenon. In the meantime, about 10,000 crop circles have appeared in more than 50 countries. However, well over half of them come from southern England in the area of Stonehenge, Woodhenge, Silbury Hill, White Horse and other prehistoric monuments. Some of them can be proved to have been made by humans, but others just as certainly have not been made by humans - this is not the starting situation one would wish for as a researcher ... In the present book 300 of these crop circles are examined more closely. It turns out that they contain approx. 100 elements which appear in many crop circles. Their geometrical form has an easily recognizable meaning. Therefore, with the help of these "words", the crop circles composed of them can be read like "sentences". The meaning is almost always the same: a representation of how individuality unfolds. Therefore, there are many similarities with astrology or the chakra system, for example. This analytical approach is complemented by 50 dream journeys into individual crop circles, which makes the picture that arises from the analytical observation of the crop circles even more rounded. Thereby a first impression can be gained of the language of the collective subconsciousness - which words and which grammar it uses: It is a "music of geometry".
