Something I was reminded of today: "What can we do [about pauperism]? First, we must close up official out-door relief. Second. we must check private and indiscriminate benevolence, or charity, falsely so called. Third, we must get hold of the children."

I finished translating the first 3 books of Pierre Leroux's Humanity last night and am on pace to finish the next two today. That's the bulk of the analysis, with just a very long historical "proof" following it. I think folks will find it useful in the context of Proudhon and his contemporaries.

Not content to merely adapt the work of former administrations, the president is intent, in his Washington, DC renovations, on completing a work begun by [checks notes] the British in 1814.

There is nothing in Portland for this administration but a pretext, provided for them by the nightly police riots of 2020, the product of a Democratic city government collaborating with a particularly political police force in a program of collective punishment of citizens.

Tinkering with a Wotja-based mix this morning, it struck me that I must have half a dozen good clock and watch libraries, but the ticking sound I always seem to gravitate to is an insect clicking rhythmically in the mud, recorded in the local greenway on my phone or a pitched-down hummingbird.

I'm finally writing a bit on John Beverley Robinson's 1915 essay "Egoism," returning to the question of the einzige as "the only one."

Word on the street is that one round had the entire text of Otto Rühle's "The Struggle Against Fascism Begins with the Struggle Against Bolshevism" AND a complex joke involving the name "Proudhon" lovingly hand-engraved on it.

One September goal — other than digging out the rest of the lawn for a xeriscaped space — is the completion of a fairly finished translation of E. Armand "Anarchist Individualist Initiation." I want to make a simple trade edition available for purchase, with just a couple of other texts included.
