I took both of Dante's two images at the end to be 2 references to pregnancy: the first, the + as in a positive pregnancy test. You made that leap yourself. And, by the way, may you never find one of those positive plus symbols. that is unless you're gunning for a spawn. the second, I took to be a burger bun on its side - i.e. a bun in the oven. it's a stretch, but fuck it, until Dante offers up a better explanation I'm going with it. subject to interpretation, right? well, you’ve established that the R.U.R. may be a reference to a Czech play from the early 1920s in which the world is introduced to robot as cheap labor (no pun intended)…

We need more clarity like we need more civil wars. God help us if 1000 years from now we are not judged purely by our mass media and environmental apocalypse. Maybe small pockets of low resource art will survive long enough to prove our species wasn't completely ignorant. I wonder if a scrap of paper won't outlive all the digital bytes in the world. I hope so. Tell Dante that clarity is for Starbucks and IBM. We need more clarity like we need more civil wars.
