I WILL ARCHIVE EVEN THOUGH IT IS THE END, I WILL ARCHIVE BECAUSE IT IS THE END
imagine how beautiful human beings are archiving objects endlessly and still making things when everything is about to completely disappear
but then . . . that allows us to truly see us
and who is actually saying for a fact that we are about to completely disappear and when does such a fact become such a fact
even so we archive and we archive and that seems beautiful if we view it from the outside
we see ourselves from the outside saving ourselves and it is some kind of beautiful vision
AN ANTHONY FAUCI TYPE STATEMENT
it’s true that fauci will have killed a certain form of statement
i mean who would want to say things like this bro says in the way he has said them
and so after the alien has burst from his chest tomorrow
we will have no more of scientific statements
even and especially if they concern the going of the world
and thank heaven sierra armor has already killed him
How do you not hear the name ‘Dr. Fauci’ and not think That’s clearly the name of that concentration camp doctor who chopped the legs off Jewish twins? You know, the Angel of Death, Fauci.
and thank heaven she has killed olivia rodrigo
Some old-ass millennial put me in this cheugy pink Chanel suit. I’m wearing some paperclip-looking Janky Jewels-type earrings. Petra Collins is shooting a picture of Joe Biden and I, staged in the childhood bedroom of some this-teen-does-not-exist. If an AI generated the face of the perfect Generation Z girl, it would be my face, my pristine doll eyes.
and thank heaven she has finally killed joe biden
Once upon a time, he looked a little like Jake Paul. Both are victims of lobotomy, of state-mandated horse tranquilizer. I’m beginning to think I live at the center of a deep fake. I’m beginning to not think at all.
thank you based sierra armor
TEENAGE GIRLS ARE THE ONLY ONES THAT CAN TRULY KILL SOMETHING
only a nearly teenage girl knows how to kill in this pure way
only teenage girls can figure out how to do the scene where an alien really does bust out of fauci’s chest tomorrow
but where does that stop, how far should it go, how should we not kill in this way to make sure our culture now remains alive for some kind of going-dependent forever
teenage girls lead the way
if you can kill fauci and rodrigo and biden on substack
then not only is that what substack is for but maybe the principle can go even further
for example sometimes my only regret is that angelicism01’s retard list is not unified
in other words why does it have two sections, why is it not just one section of retards, why is anyone forgiven
why did we stop like a faint-hearted saint-just coward-ass hoe thinking of what comes after the terror when we might have killed dean kissick fr
who is the human being right now who does not deserve the chest buster in alien scene replayed just for them yesterday
POCO ALLEGRO: COMMENTS ON BRAHMS
brahms symphony no 3 in f major 3rd movement ‘poco allegretto’ but they always make it too allegro
it says poco allegretto but for forever we have ignored the poco and played it too allegro
when it comes to music i have no real interest in the first movement, or the second, and when the third arrives even less so, and i have always hated the end
but i still listen lol
what i mean is
poco allegro they ignored the poco forever
they talked over one another etc forever
actually it turns out that only brahms did that poco shit with the third movement
For the third movement, instead of the rapid scherzo standard in 19th-century symphony, Brahms created a unique kind of movement that is moderate in tempo (poco allegretto) and intensely lyrical in character.
but they always ignore the poco
and then i found it
where they don’t
where this didn’t
and it’s slow with slight fastness
like everything should be1
TOO LATE FOR TAO LIN 1. THE HONOR LEVY/TAO LIN THEOREM
is it too late for tao lin?
it’s interesting to reflect that when honor went on contain she confessed that she hadn’t read tao lin
that’s an interesting comment on the fact that we don’t really have to read anything now, it’s all in the air an abbreviation
that’s not just a general comment either
because you could say that while tao lin would have had to read the equivalent of honor levy if an equivalent of honor could somehow have come before him in 2011 the same is not the case in 2021
that is, honor levy does not have to read tao lin but tao lin must have had to read in some way honor levy
TOO LATE FOR TAO LIN 2. COSMOLOGY AND GOING
this is not about criticising leave society
which i have finished and by no means is not a work of pure intelligence
in fact, what this is about is asking about the main question leave society asks even in the form a medical family recovery romance (it’s a family disease, says the 12 step community bros)
and it’s about asking literally about that question i.e. whether it can even be asked let alone be answered
and that question is basically what is going (what is going on with going) and what does it mean to be ‘singularityward’ as the novel says in what for me must be its best linguistic moment
the moment when it says ‘singularityward’
the question is what happens between different conceptions of going, can you distinguish, and in time, in good time, and what does this mean, in good time, is there time?
is there time for tao lin?
THAT THE WORLD IS ACTUALLY ENDING
this is all i am saying
this is all the entirety of this newsletter is saying from one end to the other
but its saying it without knowing if its true
without knowing what it means
without knowing whether it should be said at all
whether it needs to be said
whether it is anything like a valid statement
whether everyone doesnt already know it more than well deep inside
without knowing if we ever know and that is life
without knowing if that would be the literal answer to the universe
the key to what is singularityward
the answer to what is goingward
as to whether the mystery is more intractable or whether the tractable is becoming more mysterious
and yet beyond wavering and beyond certainty in thinking that this thing is for now actually saying itself
that the world is actually ending
that that is being said
that that is being mixed up in and with what is and is not said
that this is what this newsletter and no other will have meant
WHAT TYPE OF GOING IS THAT
but then the question becomes
what kind of ending, actual end and actually ending, is that
standing alone that brad phillips tweet looks like a scientific statement
and we all know it’s possible to think all kinds of things about scientific statements like that right now
wrongly or rightly, one can wonder about the use of the word ‘actually’ in that statement
one can wonder who is speaking, brad phillips or anthony fauci
i never heard back and we can always wonder what that means
nothing and everything of course, maybe brad’s just thinking it through
the poco and the allegro
and the poco and the allegro of all speeds and types of going
i never heard back from them
brad and tao, the bros of all good going
the telephony hiccuped
finally we are inattentive like everyone else, that’s what attention is
going going gone
or whatever
they often speak of going, brad and tao
and then that
then this
PERHAPS BRAD PHILLIPS DIDN’T GET BACK BECAUSE THEN IT WOULD BE THE ACTUAL END OF GOING AND THEN HOW COULD TAO BE HIS BRUUUUH
if we believe in a nonfinite universe then we believe in a nonfinite universe
but we shall then have to wake each morning and remind ourselves
this is why there is a praxis like dzogchen which is a school not just in infinities
in remembering infinities, i mean, but in occupying the space in and around infinities
the way the basic space is not just finite and it is not just infinite and it is not just nonfinite
WE ALWAYS FORGET INFINITIES, FOREVER, PERIODT..
is the actual end of the world a deep scientific worldview of the world in the non fauci sense or is it something that should be killed in a valid praxis beyond remembering
that is in wild tantric wrath that triggers everything down through the world systems one through fourteen
as i read leave society i forget it
what to do with that fact?
honor levy has already not read tao lin
one might say that even if we read the mathematical proof of the fact that the world’s going is unique and not universal
even if we know for a fact the end of the story
and who wins
who wins in the end between the finite and the infinite
as if a piece of music suddenly breaking out in a rash of mathematical film
even so we would fall asleep and forget it
we would always forget it always
POCO FOREVER ALLEGRETO
here is the comments section for the brahms video on youtube
here they analyse the poco lol
the poor little poco forever lol
‘it breathes so well this way’
this is true
the version breathes so well this way
the same might be said of the question of going
it breathes so well this way
how fast is the question of going
here it is
the movement of going
preparatory to the novel leave society
never stop going
they are doing language acquisition together
this is what happens when you go’d
the language goes funny on go’d
because you are leaving the society of everything behind
you will be tempted to think you can forget the word ‘universe’
that you can stop saying ‘going’ in the old way
that you can never say ‘infinite’ again because it only ever gives a finite idea of the infinite
but which type of going
when i make the statement the world is actually ending
did i just go
is it go’d
is a new language acquisition required
is it really happening
or should brad phillips be killed by sierra armor
should the alien burst out of tao’s chest tomorrow
are these two bros huddling in the tepee without canvas saying ‘going’ back and forth like babies regurgitating shit at the end of melancholia
are these the bros that will kill us
LETS NOT START SUCKING EACH OTHERS SICKS JUST YET
classic zoomer to boomer scientific statement: let’s not start sucking each others dicks just yet
LETS NOT START SUCKING EACH OTHERS DICKS JUST YET VERSION 2
you say we will be going forever even after death
but bruhh
after the alien bursts out of anthony faucis chest tomorrow
let’s not start sucking each others dicks just yet
until then amigos

‘LEAVE SOCIETY’ IS A MUSICAL MOTIF
in honor levy’s recent instagram story on ‘what the hell is a reading’, which i will archive and analyse on here soon in its 25 min entirety, she says ‘leave society’ as a kind of leitmotif
and not just as a novel
when u ask yourself what the novel means
you ask yourself what ‘leave society’ means the phrase
which is a phrase that came to tao in a dream
so you also ask yourself whether a novel can answer itself one way or another
isn’t it too late for novels and isn’t it too late for scientific statements and isn’t it too late for nature
or is this just an early universe ass sadness bruhh?
IN DMS WE DISCUSSED THIS
i promised you theoretical gossip of this century blessed retard reader so here is the gossip today
here is a deleted tao lin tweet
i saw these two tweets in my tl yesterday and wrote to walt and one other homie to check myself
how can these two tweets be together
one says yah yah no more dominator society bro i believe in all you losers who nobody even knows about hence 274 likes
the other says any ‘large magazine’ want to publish me
was it just me, i said to walt, was it just me
to look at that and think about it
because every1 is looking at the tl and thinking about it and everything-assed everything
but like
no predator society bro any large magazine want to publish a novel extract?
yeah yeah hypocrisy is our grain but still . . . there are options
A FEW HOURS LATER THEY HAVE DELETED THE TWEET
i go back a few hours later after honor and walt’s podcast
and brother tao lin has deleted the tweet about the ‘large magazine’
like whatever, everyone says shit like that and then deletes it
but just how ingrained is the actual going and the leaving
you can pretend it’s all retarded but the philosophical question
and it’s dignity will always come back to fuck you
HERE’S A TWEET I DELETED SO YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN AND SO I CAN JOIN AGAIN AND AGAIN THE RANKS OF THE UNIVERSALLY CRINGE AND GONE
if leaving society involves leaving the city of cosmological ideology behind (universal finitism) for the pastoralism of infinite going and yet then infinities as personal themselves turn out to be an ideological illusion after all, where does that leave the social game?
A DIALOGUE FROM DMS TO NEARLY THE END 4:32 AM
i am wondering about the point of sight
we all spoke over each other, one another, in good time
i wrote about voice once harmony
i sent you a bit at one point
the women singing togethwr
mozart
yes
a very long way to say Yes.
spoke?
too late do not read?
i think i remember
we fitted a lot in
Yes.
a very long way to yes now?
POCO ALLEGRO GOING
poco allegro going
they talked over one another etc forever
Are Tao Lin ‘recommendations’ one form of 2021ish ‘going’? How can we make them infinitely better? Why not say ‘going up’, ‘go’d up’ instead of ‘meeped up’? Why not say ‘poco allegro zoomed up’? Let us keep on killing the jargon so as to better replace it itself. To kill it, let’s kill it.
‘fetch me time’s heroin’ <3
Correction: now (not then, but now) it feels were forever putting our faith in someplace besides the point.
But it bothers me you know something's dropped out the equation somehow.
Like candour, does that figure at all, or how can it, in posting online.
It's this freaked discrepancy between headlong carelessness and when truly we've no time and are museum pieces.
