+ speakin of psychles, in our own bubble (working on A Raft Manifest) weaved inturned stage 3 of 4 of Vico's recursive corso ~ th human or demockerysea phase of sivilization ~ we pass'd o'er th hump ~ past th pallindromic ½-way punt (~6 pgs that read th same backwoods as farwords) that weed like to think of as a sissyfitsian feet push'd uphill 1 side + now smooth sailing ~ th 1^st ½ definitely difficult to ride fo sure last winter as we lamentid on in post # 477 ~ hoping now we dont got to tack int. th wind but kin let th current carry us ~ th dadastream as weed like to think insted of thinking wah = thunk ~ where u ride mareely mareely down after rowing up shits creek ~ mareely mareely, mareely, life = but a dream ~ + now that we figgerd out how to ride, we kin prowgram our raft + let her run on autopilot ~ on th plane here red Life on the Mississippi by Mark Twain, wich chronicles th ℝeel moondough xperience he undertook as an apprentice «cub» workin on a steamboat to gather ℝeel moondough material for Huck Finn ~ back then to navigate they rode down descriptions in them logbooks of landmarks along th river til they knew her like th back of them hands ~ but young Twain dint account for how th return trip upstream mite look, toto backwoods = how we feel now gitting ova th pallindromic hump, to help riverse corse + find our weigh ~ + now (in our own book) we @ this self-conchus state (age 6-7 of 12) where we know bedder how to ride using carwreck granmar, conchus uv th ∆iffrence 'tween ℝealidad + S.O.ñ.A.R. wich til now we bin using to d-rive texts to communeacake w/ th outside moondough. Does this mean wheel start riding more normally here on 5cense? Perhaps. But we also into this idea of gradual ∆ifferentiation. Lots of books have radical shifts in style or tone, but very few change graduallly .. character arc, sure (no accident that oscars always go to roles that display character arc, not just good acting) .. but hoo has pool'd off an ark in riding style? Vamos a ver. Gotta git to th state where we do what we say we gonna do, where she comes 2° naychair, mo fluid + luzid. Crawl us out form under th rubble w/ a clear conschus reddy to reap downhill rapids we earn'd form all this rowing against th currentsea, in wet dog rust (to make annagrams outta sayings that utterwise offend us).

20 Nov | Portland, OR> Got in late, strait to crappy hotel near airport. Piercing fire alarm kept goin off just when weed git to deep sleep. Now wide awake at 5 a.m. Finish'd Life on th Mississippi, tho got bored of her ½-way thru. Twain seem'd kind of a cantankerous dick in ℝealidad .. cumpetitive + vindictive + full of hisself + this by his own admission (an autobiography). Spose this = wad s/he takes to ride th great ∀merikin novel? Intresting tho in that ½ of what s/he takes to b-cum a steamboat pilot amounts to documenting innuendos about th river, so in a sense thats what th book = about, th Mississippi + her intrinsicaseas. And now here we wake up on th banks of th Colonvia .. th river we ride on in A Raft Manifest. Crossed th river into Washington .. not just from th district of Colonvia to th Colonvia river, but city of Washington to Washington state. In these parts s/he dont take long till u in th backwoodsass sticks. Twins Peakish but not in no funky liberal way. Trump country. Factories + lumber hills along th river. Stop'd + did th Cape Horn hike. Nice views of river below walkin' thru lush forests in th rain dripping w/ greenery, todo moondough carpetid in moss... th cooshy backdrop of our youth (we from these parts) just wish we cd find huckleberrys to eat like we used to nonstop as a kid tromping these backwoods but guess they aint in season or got ∀ll eaten .. + doubtful th same species of huckleberry Huck derived his name from so cant git no romantic notions to draw parallel streams tween th Missiliffi + Colonvia.

Got breakfast @ some general store in some podunk town. Monster trucks w/ Iraq bumper stickers + guys w/ camouflage hunting jackets on ATVs. Best to speak in hush'd tones in these parts, dont let ppl in on yo politickle inclinations. Push'd on a piece up river, past Bonneville Dam (wich coinsidentally we rode about in post 477 we referrd to above .. when we datastream'd her googling round Inurnet + now here we drive by in meatspace). Hiked up Dog mountain .. raining moss of th way, of corse .. par for th corse in these parts ..
