For Petrofski hath said,

Whomsoever takes this to have meaning
Hath missed the point."
Dedicated to Hekate, Arana, Eris, Amani,
and all of the goddesses we've known.
Without you, we wouldn't be.

To those who have contributed: Here's how it ended.
The Church of Psycherotica was founded in 1998CE. This you know. What you may not know is what
occured during the final months of The Church in 2002CE, which can only be described as The Scandal.
Not much was recorded about The Scandal at the time, except for a brief article on page 4 of the Pittsburgh
Post-Gazette which got many of the facts wrong [1] and mis-spelled "Trachtenberg" while also mis-identifying
her as the inspiration for Arana (in truth, it was Hekate, a good friend of Lord Chuff). What we have managed
to piece together from those willing to talk about it and the police records is as follows:
An organization calling itself "fuck the pilusophy revolution" (ftpr) showed up at a local coffeehouse
called "The Bee-Hive" which was the official meeting place for The Church of Psycherotica. The group
portrayed itself as a surrealist art group focusing primarily on surrealist pornography and philosophically socio-
political ranting.
At that time, there were only three members in the group: Saul MacTheknife, an older gentleman who,
while soft-spoken, carried a big pen; v]&s decabiA, who disappeared after the first day and was never spoken
of again (as Sarah Sinclair would later find out, he had been arrested for exposing himself at a playground in
the Brookline neighborhood); and Kristan Xara, a fourteen-year-old girl who fancied herself to be some form of
divine prostitute but, in the course of the investigation, was discovered to be a virgin (by a hymen-related
Having no advance knowledge of events to come, nor of the true nature of the group, The Church of
Psycherotica recognized ftpr as members in an anaceremony which was never held (which is what one does and
does not do with anaceremonies).
Around the time that the other anonymous was finishing trade school and Lord Chuff was forced to redact
the writings of Dos (pronounced "Dose") after Dos quit working at the Bee-Hive, Joseph Raschack was invited
to watch an ftpr art session. After the session was completed, Joseph quickly alerted the police.
According to the evidence the police found in Saul MacTheknife's house, he and his daughter Kristan Xara
were in the habit of making copious amounts of child pornography and snuff films, featuring Kristan and her
"friends" from school.
All Joseph ever said about that day was:
"Having just watched a teenage girl be molested, raped, and snuffed, I can only say, without a doubt,
that everything ftpr has ever written is en-fucking-theta. Fuck ftpr. Just delete it and hope there's a hell
for them to burn in."
Shorty thereafter, The Church of Psycherotica broke up, due mainly to Lord Chuff's refusal to perform the
desired redactions. According to him: "Enough material was lost after Dos left. I mean, shit, just read the Book
of the Introduction. It doesn't matter if it's removed or not. If you don't like it, don't read it. It's not scripture,
To this day, the bodies of the children seen in the recovered photos and film have not been found. Our
deepest sympathies are with their families.
No one endorses the writings of ftpr. I have included their writings in this edition as a warning sign for
others who attempt to form their own cults: Some philosophies and ideas, while liberating, may not liberate you
in the manner that you want to be liberated.

1. Everyone gets the facts wrong because there are no facts to get right.
The Book of the Preface
written by Lord Chuff
The foregoing document was revealed to Mal-2 by the Goddess Herself through many consultations with
Her within his Pineal Gland. It is guaranteed to be the Word of Goddess. However, it is only fair to state
that Goddess doesn't always say the same thing to each listener, and that other Episkoposes are
sometimes told quite different things in their Revelations, which are also the Word of Goddess.
Consequently, if you prefer a Discordian Sect other than POEE, then none of these Truths are binding,
and it is a rotten shame that you have read all the way down to the very last word.
—"The Last Word", Principia Discordia, pg 00075
Unfortunately for me, Eris spoke to me. Before I had ever heard of Her, She was inspiring me to create a cult.
A few scriptures popped up, mostly one-page lame attempts at starting orgy clubs so I could finally lose my
Then, one day, a classmate named "Jesus Joe" typed up a one-page pamphlet about him being "Jesus,
Lord of the Monkeys" and it included a short quote from the Book of Chuff (chapter 6, verse 66, of course). I
forget what the quote said, but the idea of a Book of Chuff stuck with me.
Eventually, I wrote it. The book was a bunch of nonsense about pet rocks, hooker cats, and a psychotic in
the woods with a big knife who kept trying to stab me.
The day after I wrote it, I decided an entire Testament of Psychosis was in order. Unfortunately, only one
other person bothered writing anything, and it was about dyslexic ducks and some guy named Petrofski.
So, I started writing more books on my own, astro-turfing several pseudonymns (not really, I just want you
to think I did). Eventually, I began believing what I was writing: the divine Psychosis, the Inner Cheese, the
ducks are our friends, drugs not substances, and then, in the middle of weeks of obsessed expansion upon these
ideas that created an entire philosophy, it happened.
A goddess spoke to me. Her name was Arana, and she was the goddess of fetishism. By way of
introduction, she gave me an earth-shattering orgasm in the shower.
Needless to say, it was all down-hill from there.
Eventually, I broke free of the obsession simply by being obsessed. The very nature of the obsession
caused it to break itself. I realized that the definition of religion has nothing to do with gods or creation or
philosophy or morality; a religion is anything that so consumes a person that the person actually confuses it
with their own existance (divine plan, meaning of life, holy mission, et cetera).
I started at the end of the Principia, and ended up on page 00004: "A Discordian is Prohibited of Believing
What he Reads." I said to myself, If so, then a Psycherotic is prohibited of believing what he writes. (Oddly
enough, the entire time I was obsessed, there was a thing with the number four being bad or evil or just
something to be avoided.)
The point of this essay is simple: Read the Principia forward, backward, or randomly, but however you
read it, pay attention! It could just save your mind.
"This book is a mirror. When a monkey looks in, no apostle looks out."

The Decree of the Happy Flowers Cabal
Our (divine) mission: to smell the Most Holy Rose (if we ever find it)
"I had a vision, and in this vision was a Rose that was Most Holy. And the villagers worshipped this
Rose for the power that it held; such a scent issued forth from this Rose that none who would share of it
would know of sadness. This Rose, my friends, grows somewhere in Ohio."
—Aryana, Mistress of the Rose
"As the bee collects nectar and departs without injuring the flower, or its colour or scent, so let a sage
dwell in his village.
"As many kinds of wreaths can be made from a heap of flowers, so many good things may be achieved
by a mortal when once he is born.
"As on a heap of rubbish cast upon the highway the lily will grow full of sweet perfume and delight,
thus the members of the Happy Flowers Cabal shine forth by their knowledge among those who are like
rubbish, among the people who walk in darkness."
—Saint Buddha, the Buddhist Saint
"Everyone I know says I'm a good boy… a very good boy."
—Anthony Freidmont
"You don't care if you're ignorant and stupid? Well then, you're ignorant and stupid till you give a shit!
"Those that would say the divine is unknowable are such as a blind man watching television. They do
not see the pretty colors as they float around making pictures, thus they are also blind to the flower that
"Those that would say the divine is nonexistant are such as nonexistant themselves. They are the seed
that will not grow, dead in the soil of life. They shall never be a flower.
"Those that would say they know the divine are such as a kareoke singer with the wrong lyrics. How
sad it is to not hear the music of the flowers.

The Book of Chuff
written by Chuff
Chapter 1: In the Beginning
I woke up. I guess that's close enough to the beginning.
After I got dressed, I went down South Side.
While I was sitting on a bench on the sidewalk,
this girl comes up to me and says,
"What's your name?"
"My name is Chuff."
She asks, "Why are you here?"
"Just feeling the breeze."
"Why aren't you wearing pants?"
I thought I had put pants on. I guess I was wrong.
Then I woke up.
Chapter 2: Reset
After I made sure I was awake and wearing pants,
I went down South Side and sat on the same bench.
I checked again to make sure I was wearing pants
when the same girl from my dream walks up to me.
"Who are you?" she asks.
"I am Chuff."
"Nice to see you're wearing pants."
"Thank you," I respond.
"Are those Bugle Boy jeans you're wearing?"
"No. Guess," I tell her.
"No. Guess."
I knew where this was going so I said, "Levi's."
"Does Levi know you're wearing his jeans?"
"I guess so."
Chapter 3: Who's your daddy?
I work at Burger King.
One day, this lady comes in and says,
"Can I get a burger with a used condom in it and a really hot cup of coffee with no lid?"
Chapter 4: Who's John?
I was giving a lecture about religion to an auditorium full of atheists.
As a joke I said, "John 3:16 was obviously about me."
I've never seen so many knees hit the floor in unison.
Chapter 5: A Sign
I was walking through the woods one day because I was tired.
This elderly gentleman jumps down out of a tree, landing right infront of me.
"What's your sign?" he asks of me.
"Women and children first, Psychos like you last."
He seemed to be offended by that,
or, at least, that's what his knife suggested.
"What up wit dat?" he said.
I should not have told him to step.
I was in the hospital for three days.
Chapter 6: Another Sign
A week after I was released from the hospital,
the elderly gentleman walks into Burger King.
"Gimme some fries," he said.
"Would you like fries with that?" I joked.
Damn that knife.
Chapter 7: Why?
I was sitting in my basement in the dark meditating to PJ Harvey
when my cat jumps up on my lotus position lap and says, "Why am I here?"
Figuring it was an exestential question, I said,
"To be the best damn cat you can be."
"Shut up, dork," my cat said.
"When I want your opinion, I'll give it to you. Now, gimme some sugar."
"Sorry. All I have is Equal."
"Stupid humans," she muttered and left.
Chapter 8: Droopy
As we usually do, my pet rock and I were having a philosophical debate.
"How can you say that?"
"Simple," the rock replied. "The absence of modern day
miracles proves that the bible was a fairy tale."
"Dude, fairie tails are long, thin, and hang off of fairie's asses."
"Shut up, dork."
"Make me."
Who knew rocks took boxing lessons?
Chapter 9: A talk
I was sitting on the bench again.
The same girl walks up to me.
Says the girl, "Hello, Chuff."
"Good day," I reply.
"I had a talk with your cat. She says you're a dork."
I seem to be called that alot.
"And why were you talking to my cat?" I ask.
"Oh, we work the same corner at night."
I have to talk to my cat about that.
Chapter 10: Again?
I heard someone knocking at my door.
Figuring it was my pet rock, I answered it.
The elderly gentleman was there holding my cat.
He hands her to me, saying, "She's no cheap date."
"She makes the ugly psychos pay more," I told him.
That knife hurts.
Chapter 11: Duh?
I was working at Burger King when this trucker comes in.
"Uh, yeah. Can I get some rat burger and some ice with a drop or two of Pepsi on it?"
"Would you like some grease and salt with little bits of potato floating in it with that?"
Chapter 12: Cycle?
I was slam-dancing with my wall to PJ Harvey
when my cat walks up to me.
Says she, "Could you run out and buy me some Tampons?"
"You got money and legs. Do it yourself."
The claw marks will always remind me that Tampons mean period.
Chapter 13: Kitty Christ
For a change of pace, I went to the mall. Guess who I meet?
The atheists from that lecture I gave.
"Is your cat the Christ or are you?" they ask.
"Why? What's my cat said?"
"She has professed you to be a dork," they say.
"My cat is in communion with the devil," I told them.
"Do you wish us to kill your cat?" they ask.
"Nah. The STDs from her night job will take care of it."
"Does this mean sex is evil?"
My big mouth started an orgy in the mall.
Chapter 14: Oops!
I was sitting on the bench as usual.
The girl walks up to me as usual.
"Hello, Chuff. Want to meet my grandfather?" she asks.
The elderly gentleman comes over.
"This is my grandfather," the girl says.
Fuck this. I ran.
Chapter 15: Got any kleenex?
I wish these damn Rice Krispies would stay quiet when I pour the milk on them.
Why do they keep singing the theme from M*A*S*H?
Chapter 16: Whatever
I come home one day to find my pet rock painted red.
"I didn't know your cat was ragging it, man," he said.
Chapter 17: Revolution
I guess this is the end.
The story started when I woke up.
I'm hoping it will be over when I go to sleep.
The only problem is, there's an elderly gentleman in my bed with my pet rock.
Fuck it. I'll sleep in the basement.
Damn that knife.

Chapter 3: Petrofski's son
"The sun is yellow and fuzzy
but only if one stares at a Buick for a long time
and eats a sandwich that one finds growing in the drawer."
So said Petrofski to his son.
And in this simple phrase, we can see that there will always be
a duck staring over your shoulder.
Chapter 4: Ducks
"Whaling can be a hard business,"
I said to the man as he engulfed a package of mints.
He turned and looked at me like a fish out of mud
then ran as if his bowels had congealed.
Chapter 5: Stuff, you know, like that thing…
That guy told some people something
and they went and did stuff like those other people
and they went to that place with those things.
Chapter 6: Intermission
"Let's all go to the lobby,

Chapter 14: Purpose
And I said to the congregation,
"Go forth, like the mighty duck (no reference to Disney),
find the masses (no reference to Christianity),
speak to all in the way I have today (no reference to the show),
confuse the hell out of them (no reference to Christianity),
then smile, nod, and walk away."
They did this and came running to me for answers.
I told them to look in the back of the book.

He gave me a puzzled look and piddled on the floor.
Chapter 3: Later the Same Day
While I was cleaning the floor, this guy,

I got lucky.

Chapter 1: Who am I?
I am that I am.
Pretty deep, huh?
I knew a guy who said that once.
Then he said, "Pass the beans."
Chapter 2: Who are you?
You are my children.
Kneel before me

I shall reign glory on all who deserve it.

Chapter 3: Why should we care?
Pay close attention to the words of Petrofski.
"I am a faggot."
He never said that, but I have.
I am not Petrofski, though.
I just play him on television.
Chapter 4: This again?
I am a beaver,

I do it with my toes,

I am yet I am not,

Yet this one is nothing,
And nothing is synonymous with all things.
There is a truth to this.
If all things have sex the normal way,

Is this the deep ponderings of a philosopher

I once knew a Zen Buddhist. I said to her, "The steve has taken my clothes.

So I slapped him.

I ran into the group of atheists at Java 13.
They asked of me, "Who is the steve

Said I, "The steve is not from here.
This place no longer exists."
They looked at me, bepuzzled.
"How is it that this place does not exist?"
I told them, "This is not here."
"Where is here?" they asked.
"Only the divine Psychosis can reveal the answers."
Asked they, "Are the ducks psychotic?"
Said I, "The ducks are perfect creatures,
without flaw."
They left with a song in their hearts.
I believe the song was, "Black Velvet."

For I am the great psychotic,

Go forth unto the public,

The Lost Third Book of Chuff
transcribed by Sarah Sinclair with help from Chuff
On the first warm day of January '99 in Pittsburgh, PA, Chuff left, saying he was going for some cigarettes. We
found him three days later, naked in some nearby woods with a tape recorder, babbling about manustupration.
Apparantly, the blood from the scratches on his arms had messed up the tape recorder and the three tapes we
found were badly garbled. When asked what had happened, Chuff said, "Mettez un canard sur un lac au millieu
des cygnes, vous verrez qu'il regrettera sa mare et finira par y retourner. La nostalgie de la boue! DE LA
The following is everything we managed to recover from the tape cassettes.

The following was spoken backward on the third tape by a voice identified as belonging to Suretus. Whether
Suretus was speaking backward or the recorder was recording backward is unknown.

Chuff on the Lost Third Book of Chuff
January '99. After the weather warmed up, I finally decided to leave the house. I needed some cigarettes
really bad and was starting to go stir crazy. I was walking along the train tracks near my house to go to the
store. Next thing I know, I'm sitting on my couch with a cup of coffee, covered in blood and wearing only a
dirty blanket someone had draped over my naked body, mumbling in french. I took french in high school but I
had no idea what I was saying.
After I showered, my head cleared a little and I could remember some of it. I took my clothes off to dance
around a bonfire I had made. Unfortunately, my clothes were the kindling. At one point, I was talking to my
penis about the old television show, Petticoat Junction. And then my recollection gets weird.
I was flying around Europe, witnessing the Renaissance. I pull a right when I get to Russia and end up in
this remote valley in Africa. I can remember little of what happened there. It was a hidden underground
compound with people from all over Eurasia. A woman named Suretus started showing me around.
That's all I know and hypnosis hasn't been helpful, seeing as how I have too many repressed childhood
memories to dig through.
I found the french I was saying. It's a quote from Émile Augier and the english is:
Marquis: Put a duck on a lake in the midst of some swans, and you'll see he'll miss his pond and
eventually return to it.
Montrichard: Longing to be back in the mud!
Why did this happen and what really happened? I have no idea and somehow I don't care to know; but I
would enjoy flying again.
The Charge of the Sex Goddess Arana
"Even the oral traditions had scripture."
—the Enchantress
The Charge of the Sex Goddess Arana was given to Chuff one night by the kinky queen herself. Shortly after,
he had a religious experience in the shower while vigorously cleaning certain parts. This led him to the
revelation that he was obviously a theophile. It is generally agreed that the bad writing is Chuff's fault, not
Arana's. Apparantly, translation is not his strong point. What follows is the full text of the Charge, minus the
pornographic designs found throughout as substitutes for letters.
I am the goddess that quacks in the night. 'Nuff said?
I am the one that bestows great orgasms upon thee;
For thou art great in Psychosis,
And forever thou art my mates.
To whom do you call for sex and love
but the one who is the source of it all.
Be free, have fun, frolick naked in your bedroom,
For I am there watching over thee
And enjoying the view as no other can.
See this now and hear it later:
I am the goddess with the hot body
and buns of steel
When thou lusts for a woman
it is for me
None compare to my beauty
for I am all pink in the middle
(and other phrases of adoration)
Forever I am the one,
Sex goddess and orgasmic one;
She who holds the source of all fetishes
and their fulfillment.
When thou orgasms, it is my ecstacy.
Take joy in this gift
or be diseased.
I am the goddess who hath given you pleasure
(and algolagnia)
and I am the goddess who will give pain.
Enjoy the act, be it free and for love,
the love of the act,
And you give me the same.
Be thou as one with another
as you may with me.
Call my name and I will come,
Pleasure will be ours to share.
I am the goddess Arana and these are my words.

The Book of Detersis, v.3.1
written by Travis Jones
It is said that the Assitians are unfathomable, and in as much, ignorable. This may indeed be true,
depending on who you ask and what kind of mood he or she happens to be in. This much can be said however;
Assitians do exist, and if you have a daughter between the ages of 13 and 16, you'd best not seek out their
overwhelming underlordly presence.
One of the principle pieces of evidence we find of their existence was revealed unto Petrofski in the form
of a mimeographed letter that was found tied to a rock next to a pond in Spokane, Washington. (Don't bother
asking why he had gone there. If we were him, we wouldn't have.) The letter, which was at best a draft, was an
attempt of the Assitians to fathom the rites and rituals of the Normals. In as much, one can hope to gather some
information about them.
The Letter
The Normals, whose skin is multi-haired and quite chewy if nibbled, are a passive race, relying on multi-
colored dream-screens to induce a waking sleep that would insure their further passivity. These dream-screens
come in two varieties—the HAPPY-SHINEY-PICTURE-SHOW variety and the SOLITAIRE kind.
Certain Normulian communities in varied parts of the Earth lack proper HAPPY-SHINEY-PICTURE-
SHOW emitter dream screens, which leads to Civil Disobedience and other works of literature. The amassment
of these literature pieces allows for a gnomic caste, which childe-persons of the Normulian ilk are exposed to as
children, so as to properly scare them into not wanting to have anything to do with them whatsoever.
Erotica as portrayed by Normulian corporate media dream-screen is consumption-based rather than
procreative. Among such erotica available are toothpaste ("brightens and whitens"), Barbee (not in actuality a
bee, nor a bar, but rather a mammarian womb-world gyne-representation icon without distinguishable
reproductive functions and a removeable head). Although in actuality Normulian sexual intercourse is
compulsory after age 18, it's advertizement is delegated to late-hours, in line with feeding habits, productivity
tables and HAPPY-SHINEY-PICTURE-SHOW viewing hours. Poverty is prevalent in all non-SOLITAIRE
environs maintained by the Normals, and unhappiness a direct result of non-HAPPY-SHINEY-PICTURE-
SHOW environments.
Drug use in said society is largely sacramental. The misuse of drugs is considered evil and the use of drugs
not sanctioned by any established rite is met largely with disapproval. Certain drugs, such as coffee, are
erotically advertized as a "morning ritual" but those who choose to delegate its consumption to non-morning
hours are regarded as heretical and often pierced for their transgressions. Similarly, other drugs, such as
alcohol, are regarded as nightly rituals, and morning consumption is met with disdain.
Tobacco observes no circadian rythms, but those using tobacco as a sacrament have been largely
persecuted in the last several years, not allowing to practice their religion indoors. If the human experience has
taught us anything, these people will soon be deemed heretical, placed on trial, and summarily hung.
The Book of Funnel E. Funny
written by Sam the Butcher
Chapter 1: If not, maybe so
Then there was this girl from the Hive, a local coffeehouse. She would sit and talk with me all day until her
cows came home. It was fun while it lasted, I would say. She'd just smile her West Virginia smile, you know
how they are. Our talks lasted for about a week, then she disappeared in a cloud of smoke. The Hive gets very
smokey. They never really found her, only traces of her. A burnt filter in the toilet, some kleenex in the ashtray,
occasionally a large coffee mug filled with just sugar and cream. She wasn't there physically but she was still
there, and I knew it all too well. Some days, I would sit and talk to her while I was alone and people would
stare. People aren't very polite but that's how it is at the Hive. One day, a guy asked me who I was talking to. I
told him and he ran away. I don't think he knew her the way I knew her. I knew her way too well. She'd never
leave. No, not the Hive. Not her home. That's the way she was, and that's the way she is. I miss her.
Chapter 2: This again?
Oh plushy

People look weird when they sneeze.
Chapter 4: The Third Vision
And then there came to me three visions. I forgot the first two because of the third. In the third vision, a really
hot woman of goddess proportions came on me and said, "Was it as good for me as it was for him?" I turned to
see who she was talking about. No one was there. "I'm pretty sure No one enjoyed it because he's comatose," I
told her. "This I can give to you," she said. I asked her why I would want it. Her response: "Why not? If it is so,
maybe it is not. You will forget the first two visions. They were rough drafts. But remember this. To let your
joy be known [through verbal means], exclaim these words: Hi oo lac!" And then she left.
Chapter 5: Water fowl

The Remains of the Ancient Scroll of Steve McQueen
brought to the church's attention by Heather D.
The translation of a transcription of a conversation held between two philosophers from somewhere in Europe
even though the scroll was found in the woods of Maryland by three amateur film students looking for

Steve: Swimmingly, Mr. Zeria. But I'm not too sure about this whole scientific theology you've
Pete: Not to worry. In Science-ology, every voice matters. Go ahead, I'm listening.
Steve: Well, Pete, it's like this.
Pete: You're unsure of yourself. You don't think this is for you. You feel inadequate.
Steve: Hey, leave that out of this!
Pete: Your problem is obvious, Steve. You're gay.
Steve: Didn't I tell you to leave that out of this?
Pete: Steve, don't be afraid of my feelings—uh, your feelings for me. It's perfectly okay to be gay if we
tell you to be.
Steve: I'm not gay, Pete.
Pete: No one said you are. I just suggested that you might be repressing some emotions.
Steve: I'll repress my fist down your throat.
Pete: That's good. Just let it all out.
Steve: You're sick. You're entire damn religion is insane!
Pete: No, Steve. We're normal. It's everybody else that's insane. Trust me. You'll feel alot better after
we're done reprogramming you.
Steve: You're ducked up, man. Screw you're religion.
Pete: Was that a typo?
Steve: If so, maybe not. But I do know one thing.
Pete: What is that?
Steve: Since you're normal and everybody else is insane, I'm going to become the elite of the insane.
Pete: You wouldn't.
Steve: Yes, I would.

Pete: How?
Steve: How now brown cow! I do not need reason! Logic is a battleground littered with the feces of
psuedointellectuals on laxatives!
Pete: How can you say that? Logic is the foundation of the universe.
Steve: Idiocy! One day, it shall be proven that logic is a useless human invention. It shall be turned into a
playground where people such as I dance our merry way to enlightenment and frolic amongst the
most holy roses! One day, I shall return to claim my throne as Lord of Lords, ruler of earth!

when in the coffeehouse
our goddess appeared to me
and sat with me.
Dressed from head to toe in secret desires,
with her letter upon her breast.
A touch of smile played her lips as she spoke:
Mine is the ecstacy of the spirit,
and mine also is joy on earth.
For my law is love unto all beings.
I am the desires of the heart of man.
Call unto thy soul, arise, and come with me.
Before my presence, beloved by the All,
let thine innermost self be enfolded
in the rapture of the infinite.
Let my worship be within the heart that rejoiceth;
for all acts of love and pleasure are my rituals.
And thou that seeketh me should know
thy yearning shall avail thee not unless thou knows the mystery;
If that which thy seekest thou findest not within thee,
thou shall never find it without thee.
Behold, I have been with thee from the beginning;
and I am that which is attained at the end of desire.
I am your goddess Arana and these are my words.

"Chimera!" said the frog in response.
"Ducks know not of speaking, forward or backward!"

The Book of Normalcy
compiled by Chuff
Chapter 1: Normality
Normal is something that everybody else is and you're not. Therefor, Psychotic is something that you are and
everybody else isn't. Since this means that everybody is Psychotic from their point of view, we are left with an
absurd notion that nobody understands or could ever be. All things which cause stress and denial of Self are to
be included in this absurdity as either being caused by or causing the notion. This notion, as should be obvious
by now, is Normality, Normalcy, and Ism.
Chapter 2: Psychotic Episodes
Psychosis is a non-religious, non-parody parody religion. This means Psychosis as a religion isn't. The nature
of being a non-parody parody is such that it's as true as it wants to be but is funny anyway.
Psychosis seeks to explore the limits of consciousness and perception while confusing the hell out of everyone
else. The name Psychosis doesn't imply insanity, only our actions do. The word Psychosis comes from the
Greek word "giving of life." In the context of religion, Psychosis means "the state or condition of the mind/
soul" ("psyche" the mind or soul, "-osis" the condition or state of). It can also mean "knowledge of the mind or
soul" ("psyche" and "gnosis").
Warning: Logical Conclusion Ahead
Chapter 3: Experience
All that we experience is a sequence of perceptions. Notions such as cause and effect, bodies and things, are all
mere suppositions or beliefs. All things we perceive are only phenomena. The nuomena (the thing-in-itself)
which supports the phenomena remains unknowable. And there is no reason why it should resemble our
perceptions. The phenomena are perceived by way of our categories, which have nothing to do with the
nuomena. This remains beyond quality, quanity, relation, neurosis, and the like.
Chapter 4: Logic
Logic is sound reasoning, which is drawing conclusions from known facts. Facts are based on Reality, which is
unstable as it is constantly changing. This sets off a chain reaction leading to the conclusion that I'm wrong,
you're left, and the duck was right. Logic is nothing more than the leaning tower of Pisa because it has no solid
foundation other than a Reality that is constantly shifting. Therefor, anything logical is bound to be slanted in
some way.
Chapter 5: Dogma
Dogma is an answer to a question without an answer. That means the question cannot apply to the answer,
leaving the answer a dull, bitter rock inside of your brain, blocking the illumination of the divine Psychosis. Or
is that also Dogma?
Chapter 6: The Logical Conclusion
In summary, we are part of an illogical universe that is ever changing and growing. When we impose any form
of logic upon the universe, we end up clogging our minds and falling over. There are no answers and whatever
we understand as ourselves or our meaning is usually correct.
The Book of Sex
compiled by Sarah Sinclair
"Give me a look, give me a face,
That makes simplicity a grace;
Robes loosely flowing, hair as free:
Such sweet neglect more taketh me,
Than all the adulteries of art;
They srike mine eyes, but not my heart."
—Ben Jonson
"Sex therapy books do not understand that body, mind, soul, and the bond that unites them, forms an
unbreakable matrix which makes up the human experience of sex. Their incomplete information will
inevitably lead to feeling dissatisfied. All the prayer or all of the orgasms in the world will not resolve
the problem."
Chapter 1: Excerpts from "Concerning the Beautiful"
It is now time, leaving every object of sense far behind, to contemplate a beauty of a much higher order: a
beauty not of things visible to the corporeal eye, but of what is alone manifest to the brighter eye of
consciousness, independant of all corporeal aid. We shall not be able to tell of beauty's brightness, unless by
looking inward we percieve the fair countenance of Arana, and are convinced that neither the evening nor
morning star are half so pleasing and bright.
It is necessary that whoever perceives this goddess of beauty should be seized with much greater delight, and
more vehement adoration, than any corporeal fetish can excite; as now embracing beauty real and substantial.
Such affection ought to be excited about true pleasure, as admiration and sweet astonishment. For all are
affected in this manner about Arana, but those the most who have the strongest propensity to their desire; as it
likewise happens about corporeal beauty. For all equally perceive beautiful things, yet all are not equally
excited, but lovers in the greatest degree.
Chapter 2: Mistress Erotica, the Orgasmic One
Arana is the source of pleasure, and contentment, which are the goals of lust and desire. From her comes all joy
and for her we lust. She is not any one thing we desire, she is the reason for our desire, the fulfillment and
pleasure of having/doing.
Some may go astray of Arana. They deny their true desire for another one. They have been misled and made a
wrong decision, which will end in misery and despair. Arana knows what will make us truly happy and if we
listen to her, she will show us the way to it.
Chapter 3: Alpha/Omega
Fire is the symbolic form of passion, the flame which burns within our soul, our deepest passions and desires.
As such, it is the symbol of Arana. Her fire is the one that burns within us, exciting us to the heights of ecstacy.
Also, a red letter "A" in a circle is her symbol because "A" is Arana's initial, red is the color of passion, and
circles usually have some metaphysical usage. (Try not to confuse any of this with that Nathaniel Hawthorne
novel or certain political symbolisms.)
Since it is Arana's fire within us that causes our desire and passion, and it is for her that we truly lust, she
becomes the beginning and end of desire; the alpha and omega of lust. Without her, all would be mechanical
motion and planned parenthood. (In other words, boring.)
Chapter 4: The Call to Arana
It is one thing to believe that lust and desire is for Arana, it is quite another matter to willfully and wontonly
pursue her in fetish-sex, and recieve fully her divine pleasure of Orgasm. While it is dogma that Arana issues a
call to all beings, it is also dogma that most disregard that call. This is where the Normal falls to Normality and
manifests his ugly apathy toward the love and awesome pleasure of Arana, turning instead toward the numbing
death of Nothink.
Chapter 5: Orgasm
Orgasm is the height of excitement at the culmination of an act (usually sexual) or a train of thought (usually
philosophical), the release of tension and acceptance of pleasure within the body and love within the mind (or
vice–versa). Orgasm is more than just a physical release, it is the transcendant union of the mind, body, and
soul; and should not be confused with ejaculation or similar muscle twitching. Even though this is a part of the
experience, it should not be confused with the whole experience.
Chapter 6: Lady Fetish, the Ungirded Goddess
Fetish, from the Latin, factitius, meaning "made by art." A fetish is an act, an object, or an experience not in
itself erotic but which is sexually stimulating to certain individuals who happen to be into that type of thing.
Therefor, anything and everything can be a fetish.
Fetish is the language of lust. We are not born with a desire for a person with certain features or acts of a
certain type, we aquire them as we grow. It is not a defect to lust for something bizarre, such as large breasts or
persons of the opposite gender, just a result of conditioning. Each field of fetishism has its own language
(sometimes quite literally). Those who share the same language can understand eachother. Those who don't
tend to stare at you funny.
Learning new fetishes is something that we should all do. It can expand our horizons, broaden our
understanding of others, and be quite pleasurable. Unfortunately, developing new fetishes is alot like learning a
new language, but if you stick with it long enough, you'll soon be fluent and having fun with your new friends.
Chapter 7: Galactic Prophylactic
The Psychotic church does not support abstinence or promiscuity. We support intelligence. So buckle your
seatbelt, if you know what I mean.
Chapter 8: The Rite of Arana
The Rite of Arana is nothing more than ritualistic sex magick. If you need a full ritual outline, you're obviously
too stupid to have sex and should go home… alone.
Invokation of Arana:
We call upon thee and invoke thee,
Lustful goddess of sex and virility;
Bringer of orgasm for lady and man,
We invoke thee by head and by hand.
We call upon thee for climactic carnality,
Come and share in our ecstasy!
Blessing of the Profylactic Device:
We ask that thou, Lady Arana, bless this _______ for its aid in preventing (infection/conception).

written by Chuff
Introduction: The Becoming
The ducks, in their supposed infinite wisdom, have suggested the following guidelines for anyone wishing to
become a Psychotic:
• Lack in logic. "If we say that this is logical, we are left with a question, what is logic? How do we answer
that? With Cheese!"
• Stop having faith. "Faith is believing the hypothesis to be true without running the experiment and killing
whoever tries."
• Don't be dependant. "I'm too insane to need drugs."
Chapter 1: A Parable
The first man said, "What am I supposed to do?" To which the third man responded, "I'm sure the second man
would know." Prompting the first to ask, "Where is this second man?" The third said, "Probably off doing
whatever he's supposed to do instead of standing here telling us what we're supposed to do." The first man said,
"What am I supposed to do?" To which the third man responded… ah, you know the story.
Chapter 2: Ducky Drugs
The altogether Psychotic is much in drugs and yet much above drugs in regard of dependance. He lives IN a
high but not upon getting high.
Chapter 3: Sek!
Just as the wise teacher teaches young children, the Lady Arana teaches and instructs every living being. From
her flows all the good in the world, she is its source and origin. Nobody can take leave of her and go away
disheartened for she knows what each person wants and the way to please each according to their desires.
Chapter 4: Propaganda
There is a duality in propaganda which is: Normal/Nothink and Psychotic/Insane. The right propaganda will
make you insane by making you think, such as Poetic Terrorism. The wrong propaganda is the mind-freezing,
testicle-squeezing Dogma of Normality which in most forms is supported by the mass-produced, consumer-
friendly, complacency-inducing machines of Normal Propaganda. These are usually called Religion and
Chapter 5: SmorgasbOrgasm
The source of Orgasm is in the interaction between lovers. Even mastery of all the techniques could never truly
enhance sex without love. Sex is an act of adoration. I guess this means masturbation is better for narcissists.
Chapter 6: "Gnothe Seauton"
It is difficult to express higher experiences in the words or pictures of ordinary consciousness. This is the
reason for having "hi oo lac", the word defined by what we cannot define, but not defined as what we cannot
define. "Hi oo lac" generally has a quite positive meaning since undefinable higher experiences are usually
Conclusion: Exit Signs
The nature of existence is conscious energy. Energy is infinite, mutable, changeable, malleable, hydro-electric,
and static-clinge. Your definition of your existence is the same. Don't let it remain fixed and stagnant. Use it to
explore existence. Explain it for yourself, think for yourself, and go insane in the process.
The Book of Definitions
written by Joseph Raschack
All high is illusion, that is of no concern; only the effects upon your awareness matter.
Chapter 1: Real Estate
Since Reality has been deemed plural by certain predecessors of ours, we suggest a singular form of the word.
The universe as defined by the individual shall now be referred to as Realty, leaving Reality nothing more than
the sum of all establishments.
Chapter 2: Sign of the Ducks
The ducks are symbolic in such a manner as to have no exact interpretation. The ducks are not ducks, rather
they are ducks in duck symbolism. The symbolism of the ducks can only be understood by sporking it. In as
such as the ducks have no exact symbolic nature, it becomes obvious that their existence is the key to Psychotic
enlightenment. It cannot be told, only understood, that the ducks are your friends.
Chapter 3: I am currently thinking this thought.
What is non-existing is nothing more than what is unknown, unexperienced. Our experience and knowledge is
our definition of existence. Existence, in a larger sense, is infinite, eternal. The one thing that did not exist
before, exists now as the concept of non-existence. To say a unicorn does not exist is to ignore the existing
concept of a unicorn. Unicorns are not found in existing nature, only in the imagination. To say, "I AM NOT,"
is to ignore the concept of "I," which exists (if I may say so myself). There is no duality to existence, it is all
encompassing. Even the non-existent exist. Talk to the No-people. They may not respond, but they are
Chapter 4: Duality
Change and Stasis are eternal, they are a major duality. Our existence is stable but how we exist changes. The
concept of duality never changes, only the definitions within the concept, i.e., the duality as a concept, good/
evil, hot/cold, chaos/order as definitions. Even Stasis and Change are definitions.
But, somewhere behind the definitions of Change and Stasis, there is a question. What is Stasis? Stasis is
without Change. What is Change? Change is without Stasis. So, the question behind this becomes: What if
there is only Change; and Stasis is an artificial concept invented for the purpose of creating a duality? Then the
entire duality becomes arbitrary and useless. This leads us to: What is Change without Stasis? What is one side
without the other? What else can it be besides what it is? Energy. Ah, but isn't energy and matter a duality? Not
if matter is just condensed energy; then everything would be energy. Every duality can be reduced to types of
Chapter 5: The Experiment
Television is a dream. Until it ends, it's real. Are we lucid while watching? Is this our subconscious? Do we
really have ANY control, remote or otherwise? Let's experiment, shall we?
Turn on a television to a non-transmitting channel (static or dead-air). Adjust color, contrast, and tint as
desired. (What do you truly desire?) Add a strobe light for fun, and maybe the test-pattern sound, or just the
static. Play with the available adjustments until you find an atmosphere you're comFORTable with. Sit back,
relax, and "veg out" until you (pay attention: this is the point of the experiment) hallucinate.

The Book of Psychogenics
written by Chuff
Part 1: Cheese makes me feel special.
The cheese is the foundation of Realty. It is directly connected to Reality, serving to animate and
consciousness. You can think of it as a river of energy flowing through Reality, into our mental Realty, and
returning again. Cheese's connection to consciousness is the reason we are able to spork and renew the vitality
of our imaginations. Hallucinations are a swim up one of the tributaries to this cheesy river. I guess that makes
LSD "white-water rafting."
Everything concerning consciousness and awareness is connected by the River of Cheese and its cheesy
tributaries, which means some days it looks more like a lake.
Most Psychotics acknowledge some sort of "Onion Side" to their Realty. We're not sure why. Generally,
what is Cheesy is comical; it makes you happy. What is to be considered Oniony is scary or overly dramatic.
This dichotomy could also be referred to as the Farce in as much as it makes little sense to think of comedy and
drama as a duality when both are just two of the many forms of entertainment.
Part 2: Spork is a verb?
Sporking is when you tap into your Inner cheese to affect your state of mind/being. Sporking is a mode of
thought, a swim in the river, that produces natural chemicals within your brain and body and can leave you
feeling really cheesy or really oniony. It is referred to by many names, some of which are: prayer, foreplay,
meditation, fantasy, conversation, (channel/internet) surfing, and recreational thought use.
Recreational Thought Use is a term I coined to describe the method of using your thoughts to alter your
mood. Usually it involves telling yourself corny jokes until you feel good; or passing the time quickly using
chants of a sexual nature. ("Sek" and "duck-n-fuck-n" are both great examples from Psychotic writings.)
Part 3: Substances or drugs?
Despite what you've heard (and most of what we say), Psychosis is not a "drug religion." When we talk
about drugs, we are referring to any substance and/or action that alters brain or bodily functions. This includes,
but is not limited to: food, sleep, breathing, sporking, (interaction with) other people, perscription drugs, illegal
substances, et cetera.
Most of magick, when you consider it, is obtaining a certain type of high conditioned by your
surroundings and intent. (A sure sign that it's all in your head.) The point of most rituals is the high of
understanding. It is not enough to know something, you have to understand it. Even magick can be addictive.
Friends don't let friends trust tarot cards.
Basically, what we are saying is, Drugs over Substances. Don't get high, BE high. It's all about the Realty.
Part 4: And now, the Meaning of Life
life n. pl. lives 1. The characteristic state of an organism that has not died. 2. Existence regarded as a
desireable condition. 3. A spiritual state regarded as a continuation or perfection of animate existence after
death. 4. Energetic force; animation.
existence n. The state or fact of being or continuing to be.
And from these definitions, we can see life is a desireable existence that is spiritual. And since existence is
to be, the Meaning of Life is to be cheesy.

This ain't no religion! This is a drug induced ritual orgy of mass proportions! It's about time we all learned how
to drop our mental pants and feel the breeze of Psychosis! We are the new mystics, the new shamans, the new
witches, maybe even the NEW messiahs! We make people think! We wake them up and say, "Hey, dufus! The
world isn't as dull as you thought! You actually can have fun! Having your cake and eating it are the SAME
DAMN THING!" And we promote literacy.
It is not absurd to question your existence. It is only absurd to have an answer you don't like. And in the
grand scheme of everything cheesy, Normality is the malady of society.
Ye verily, it is such as being all good in a way that excedes expectations of the divine. How can I
hallucinate when all these colors are distracting me? It's all relevant until the question is unasked, then it
becomes fodder for psuedointellectuals trying to impress eachother! I AM THE CHEESE AND THE CHEESE
IS ME! The Sex Goddess Arana gives good fetish! Forever the truth shall be known that… damn, lost my train
of thought.
If a man have a bird upon him and know it, he may say, "Hello, pretty birdy," but what a sad vexation it
will be not to see the bird till it shits on you!
The ducks speak in a tongue reversed to world tongues. This is because they have no gag reflexes. The
way of the ducks is such that only the truly cheesy Psychotic may know or even understand. To answer the

And Petrofski said unto all,
"Who needs salvation when there is salivation? Who desires to be perfect when the desire for
perfection is an imperfection? Who is wise when wisdom is knowing how ignorant you are? I give these
to you when you are Psychotic because I can! I am Petrofski and all shall know of my silver tongue
which brings ecstatic revelation!
Conformity and stupidity are the only bad joojoos! Live, love, laugh, and be cool to eachother!
Refuse to care about what Normals think for it is the reasoning of Normals that has fucked up this
Life was never meant to be taken seriously nor is it a joke in and of itself; it just is!
Do not be misled by the Normal when he says nothing is sacred, or by the other Normal when he
says everything is sacred. I tell you now, only your mind is sacred and the only way to bless or be
blessed by it is to use it! Think or be thought!"

The Book of This Book
written by Sarah Sinclair
Chapter of the First: Parables?
There is a species of caterpillar that instinctively follows any other member of its kind that it encounters.
When the leader comes upon the last in a line, it follows. The whole line goes around in a circle until the food
supply on its track is consumed. Then they all die. Consider that for awhile.
Chapter of the Second: Cheese, please!
There is no boundary between you and the world. Reality and Realty are intertwined in a river of Cheese.
To erect a boundary would be such as damming the river. The Cheese will overflow the dam, making the dam
nothing more than a huge rock inside of your head that blocks the healthy flow of all that is good. There is no
duality, not even between the Outer Reality and Inner Realty; they are just a couple of ports on the river of
Chapter of the Third: Parabolic Parables
"Since normal science has everything made of protons, neutrons and electrons and either something exists
or it doesn't, we are left with the conclusion that there is only one state of existence which is made of the same
things. Then this table and I are equal in form and state," said Chuff.
"But no two equals are the same," said the neophyte.
"That is why there is not a mug on my forehead," said Chuff, checking to be sure.
Chapter of the Fourth: Platonic Relations
The Platonic philosophy insists much on the necessity of retiring into ourselves in order to the discovery of
truth: and on this account, Joseph Raschack says that the consciousness entering into itself will contemplate
whatever exists including the divine itself. Upon which, Chuff thus comments, with his usual elegance and
absurdity, "For the mind contracting itself wholly into a union with itself, and into the center of the universe,
and experiencing the multitude and variety of fetish-based lusts, ascends into the highest place of orgasmic
ecstacy, from whence it will survey the nature of joy, delaying the essential cleansing of fluids from its
corporeal surroundings." Thus we can see that Chuff is a dirty bastard who should wash his hands.
Chapter of the Fifth: Petrofski
Petrofski said unto his daughter,
"It is not what goes into your mouth
that will defile you, but rather, what comes out."
Wait, Petrofski didn't say that.
But it still holds true: Swallow, don't spit.
The Book of Tuesday
written by Danny the Partridge
It was a good day for bagels on that tuesday day. Not that it was tuesday, it just felt like tuesday because of the
internal bleeding. Yep, you just gotta love them bagels, man. No matter how hard you try, somedays just aren't
that good for bagels. Maybe it's due to the suppositories but I hold to the theory that nothing can be known of
the subject until a thorough examination of the noises has been conducted. Noisy naptime makes for a cranky
monkey, y'know. Anyone for pie? Vapor in the noses of America's youth, I say. Sloppy meal time habits make
for a rusty doctor. Nurse, are the staples in yet? I have to go potty. Doesn't it always figure? You give them
superior intelligence and they screw you over. That's the last time I get myself killed by a bagel eating
chipmunk. Goggle-eyed zoomorphic robots from Betazed, she said. An inaccurate description to be sure. More
like salmon cake surprise at the cafeteria. Control your emotion grid, sneezy. No one wants to see that kind of
thing in public. What made you do that to a bagel to begin with? Certainly you can't do everything through the
hole in the sheet. Lick here and win a gold watch, it said. Not a nice thing for a boss to have on his ass. Of
course, it's not nice to be showing your ass to people anyway, even if it says have a nice bagel, like mine. Hey,
George, how's your day been? Have any bagels? Today's a great day for bagels, even if it isn't tuesday. How
much longer until the coffee's done? I want to run around naked wearing used condoms on various parts of my
body. How about you? Do you like to dance? Fish dance in a most peculiar way. No matter how hard you try,
the fingers still smell like bagels. Just in case you didn't know, I've found the source of the smell and you better
go see it for yourself. She said you liked that sort of thing. Time to play find my arm. When I was young, we
used to do that all the time but today, they just pretend to eat bagels, even though today isn't tuesday. Are these
words green or do they melt? Artificial flavors make me wet. Can you do that too? Eat bagels, I mean. She said
I liked to dance in the flowers but I never did find the rose I was looking for. I think it was all just a euphamism
for sex and love and hot, melted butter poured all over our sweaty, throbbing bodies as the love vibes pulsed
throughout the vibrating bed. Is any of this making sense to you? I thought if anybody could understand, you
could. Make me a bagel so that I can dance nice and smooth like the guy on tv. Do you have tv? You should
get that looked at if you do. Little yellow men are coming for the coffee. I think I should get another cup before
they take it away from me like all the other times they stole my bagels. Right beside the hollow earth theories in
aisle five is where you'll find the lima bean culture studies. Wait until downtime so that I can give the class their
geography lesson. No, I'm not a teacher but I play one in real life. I wonder though, if all things cannot be
known, how is it that there would be a monument to the trivialities that we consider knowledge? Is it one thing
to be a highway and another to be a server? Are there ways to play games with advanced technologies such as
this? I would like a good game of spades but no one here has been to jail or rehab. Have you been
rehabilitated? Enemies of society go to rehab but I never considered them to be bad, just different. I guess that's
because they didn't eat bagels on tuesday. Her picture was on the matchbook but her number was not to be
found as easily as her tattoo. Regardless of credit history, they can send you further into debt. It all depends on
how you put the quarter in the bagel. Some days are great for bagels, like today, even if today isn't tuesday. I
like bagels. Well, it's been fun but I have to go buy some more lubricant now. Hey xylon.

—Aphrodite as History, by Robert Francis
All thought is Realty; all action is Reality. A Discordian might be prohibited from believing anything he
reads but a Psychotic is prohibited from believing anything he writes. YOU WILL BE EDIFIED by these
writings. But unfortunately you will also be edified.
So, I was giving thought to the idea that maybe we are actually sane and that it is the other people who are
insane. A friend pointed out that the people whom assert their sanity are the worst off. Dam, I said. Three hours
down the drain. Constipated? she asked. Pretty much, I replied.
Whenever the moon cannot be seen, especially the new moon, is the time of Enchantress. As a moon
goddess, she does not follow an order of appearance as does the Maiden, Mother, and Crone. Her nature can
appear in any of the other three aspects of Goddess, and can also be reflected in the human counterparts. She
weaves her way in and out of the other natures as she pleases, just as one would expect of a goddess so named.
The aspects of the moon goddess are different aspects of sexuality. This is why Enchantress is also known
as Desire. Desire, to a Psychotic mind, does not carry a negative connotation (as it does for the Normals) and
simply means one's desire. A woman or goddess as an enchantress figure need not be associated with sexuality,
but she's still hot.
Robert Frost said, "To put meaning in one's life may end in madness, But life without meaning is the
torture Of restlessness and vague desire—It is a boat longing for the sea and yet afraid."
If the universe were eternal, it would already have ceased to exist. Therefor, Chaos cannot be eternal
because Chaos never died. Also, the rumors of Chaos having rhythm are born of gross negligence. To have
rhythm is to define rhythm, and in Chaos, there are no definitions nor concepts; just existence. But to say
rhythm has Chaos is to a priori the concept of Rhythm, which is acceptable (in as much as we can agree with
anything being acceptable). If Chaos had rhythm, it would structure (Order) Chaos and give it a general pattern
when it should be quite oblivious that Chaos has no structure, since structure is just so much ordure. Therefor,
the only thing ever to be said accurately concerning Chaos is, "Chaos exists." Anything else would be Realty.
So, just what is this entity known as the Church of Psychosis? Stillwell suggests a form of artist collective
specializing in the manipulation of archetypes and philosophic logic. Joseph poses the idea concerning auto-
erotic mental asphixiation. Then Sarah queries as to having anything better to do. For Chuff, this cabal has been
an experiment to determine the truth and bullshit in psychology, epistemology, philosophy, and composition.
All of this has served little purpose other than advancing himself beyond the realm of instinct and appropriate
response. If they ask you today what you're doing Friday night, just say, jocularity.
And, to further prove our secret connection to Discordia, might I suggest two principles and illusions: The
Normal Principle, which states, "Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely." The Normal
Illusion, "An absolute divine ruler is pure love." Consider that for a moment before I go on. The Psychotic
Principle, "Why consume when you can produce?" The Psychotic Illusion, "I think therefor I am."
Ah, but that one bears explanation. The difference between existence and thought is such as the Colorado
River. It bore away at the land for so long that people forgot about it's beauty, focusing instead on the dirt that
lay around it. Existence is that beautiful river and most are too preoccupied to admire it, renting mules to climb
through their thoughts instead. But maybe this is all Realty. If it is, Life would be that mule.
Therefor, let us sing and dance a galliard,
To the dislexic teachings of the mallard;
And as the mallard dives in pool,
Let us dabble, dive, and duck in Bowl.
Oh! By the grace of Lady Arana,
Oh! By the grace of Lady Arana,
It was a swapping, swapping mallard.
The Book of the Michelson–Morley Experiment
written by Philip K. Dick
The failure of the famous Michelson–Morley experiment in 1881, in which the absolute velocity of
the Earth moving through luminiferous ether proved to be zero, gave rise to Einstein's Relativity
Theory, which holds that the concept "absolute velocity" is meaningless. However, scientists at
UCLA, using more sophisticated laser techniques, have suggested a more probable significance of the
null result: that in fact the Earth does not move and that Copernicus was a crypto-Pythagorean
determined to vindicate an ancient and discredited heliocentric solar system model. In a meeting of
Southern California astronomers and astrophysicists it was proposed that (1) the geocentric solar
system be restored as the proper model, and (2) that Copernicus be dug up and admonished. As a side
issue, Einstein will be regarded with mild disfavor and some amusement, but scientists attending the
meeting could not agree on the amount of amusement to be formally proposed.

SEX: It's GREAT for what ails you
A steady dose of loving will:
• Zap arthritis pain [you like pain, right?]
• Banish depression [which is usually caused by lack of sex]
• Cure your backache [unless you're into interesting positions]
• Make a migraine go away [so much for excuses]
• Relieve stress [which is usually caused by lack of sex]
• Boost your immune system [unless you aquire an immune deficiency]
• Help you live longer [more sex = more life = more sex!]
• Cure colds and influenza [not good things to have sex with]
• Prevent heart disease [next, let's try gingivitis]
"We will survive longer and better if we tap into the healing power of our sexuality," said Judith Sachs, a
top sexpert whose new book, "The Healing Power of Sex," is a runaway best-seller. [To date, no evidence of
said book exists.]
Experts agree that celibacy can actually be hazardous to your health, causing psychological problems such
as irritability, insomnia or depression along with a host of physical problems.
During sex, lovers' bodies release endorphins, natural pain relievers that can block headache or back pain,
scientists say. [This explains perfectly why sex is a drug.]
For your health, unload all of those pent-up urges. You, and someone close to you, will be glad you did.

The Book of Sorcery
by Hakim Bey
The Universe wants to play. Those who refuse out of dry spiritual greed and choose pure contemplation
forfeit their humanity—those who refuse out of dull anguish, those who hesitate, lose their chance at divinity—
those who mold themselves blind masks of Ideas and thrash around seeking some proof of their own solidity
end by seeing out of dead man's eyes.
Sorcery: the systematic cultivation of enhanced consciousness or non-ordinary awareness and its
deployment in the world of deeds and objects to bring about desired results.
The incremental openings of perception gradually banish the false selves, our cacophonous ghosts—the
"black magick" of envy and vendetta backfires because Desire cannot be forced. Where our knowledge of
beauty harmonizes with the ludus naturae, sorcery begins.
No, not spoon-bending or horoscopy, not the Golden Dawn or… Satanic Mass—if it's mumbo jumbo you
want go for the real stuff: banking, politics, social science—not that weak blavatskian crap.
Sorcery works at creating around itself a psychic/physical space or openings into a space of untrammeled
expression—the metamorphosis of quotidian place into angelic sphere. This involves the manipulation of
symbols (which are also things) and of people (who are also symbolic)—the archetypes supply a vocabulary for
this process and therefor are treated as if they were both real and unreal, like words. Imaginal Yoga.
The sorcerer is a Simple Realist: the world is real—but then so must consciousness be real since its effects
are so tangible. The dullard finds even wine tasteless but the sorcerer can be intoxicated by the mere sight of
water. Quality of perception defines the world of intoxication—but to sustain it and expand it to include others
demands activity of a certain kind—sorcery. Sorcery breaks no law of nature because there is no Natural Law,
only the spontaneity of natura naturans, the tao. Sorcery violates laws which seek to chain this flow—priests,
kings, mystics, scientists, and shopkeepers all brand the sorcerer enemy for threatening the power of their
charade, the tensile strength of their illusory web.
A poem can act as a spell and vice–versa—but sorcery refuses to be a metaphor for mere literature—it
insists that symbols must cause events as well as private epiphanies. It is not a critique but a re-making. It
rejects all eschatology and metaphysics of removal, all bleary nostalgia and strident futurismo, in favor of a
paroxysm or seizure of presence.

The Book of the Introduction
written by Chuff
"The one animal in nature who is a potentially open vehicle for the life force actually closes up that
vehicle by his fear of standing on his own original meanings."
—Ernest Becker
"The divine Psychosis is inspiration and revelation, not supplication. It is readily available to anyone
who is willing to laugh with the universe. And, best of all, it's free!"
—Joseph Raschack
Part One: Psychotically Divine
The divine Psychosis is an ecstatic state where one feels as if everything is there and is right. It makes one
laugh at the normally missed absurdities. The divine Psychosis can best be understood as an experience of
divinity, a revelation/insight into the nature of things and beings.
There are alot of things and events that makes us feel sad or angry or scared shitless. These are the things
the divine Psychosis teaches people to joke about; the creations of Normality that we must abolish with
laughter. The most important thing a person can learn from the divine Psychosis is how to laugh, to savor this
short period of consciousness we call life.
Part Two: Petrofski
Some say Petrofski was a man. Others say he was a woman. But, since this is religion and not politics, we
can just ignore the feminists.
To say Petrofski was a Messiah would be correct but misleading. He is the NEW (Neo-Emmanuel Writ:
the new "god/dess is with us" through the written word) Messiah. He only exists in the form of written words.
This means he does not exist until you write what he says, but you can only write what he wants you to write,
creating a paradox that is not fully understood by most Psychotics.
Little do we yet know of Petrofski. He appears to us through the divine Psychosis, giving us cryptic words
of wisdom. It seems as though he is in constant communication with the mysterious forces/entities known as the
ducks. (Quite possibly there is only one duck taking infinite ducky forms but no one can be sure.)
After each divine Psychosis experience, there is usually a report of having seen Petrofski or felt his
presence. Unfortunately, no one knows what he looks like, the image fading quickly from mind after the divine
Psychosis wears off. His presence does linger long enough to inspire certain people to write. When asked, no
one can quite describe what his presence feels like and any vague descriptions usually vary.
Part Three: The Testament of Psychosis
The Testament is a written record of what goes through a Psychotic's head shortly after experiencing the
divine Psychosis. Some could argue that it means nothing, others feel that, if decoded, the mysteries of the
universe would be known. But the Testament is generally a metaphor in as such as it is blatantly direct and
refuses to be interpreted.
Since any Psychotic is capable of experiencing the divine Psychosis, any Psychotic can write a Testament.
There is no central office to compile, recognize, and/or validate everybody's scripture so the individual is left to
stand on their own and make it up as they go along.
Any writing can be included as part of the Testament of Psychosis. The ducks have suggested that
everything ever written comprimises the bulk of the Testament. The individual Psychotic is left to decide for
themselves what they wish to recognize as part of the Testament. But most importantly, the Psychotic should
add something original, leaving his own imprint upon the Testament instead of just compiling other people's
The Testament has no end. As long as literate people experience the divine Psychosis and take advantage
of their literacy, there will be more writings. Take this as invitation to write your own books, maybe even your
own Testament. Don't worry about our Realty if you think you can define your own existence. In the words of

Hi oo lac and/or Fnord
The Flag of the Oracle
a narration of Chuff
A fondness of saying, "It happens." Some days regret, other days fascination. Matters little what others
say, but so many others. Not bestial, more of a comic book devoted to Julie Strain. Days in exact terms but still
there. A net of possibility. Furry yet uncostumed. Anthropomorphic, but ego-centric. Zoomorphic, but same
difference. Polymorph, then. Unfamiliar term for so familiar a concept.
Introduction before entrance into this, a fantasy. Labelled this, Rachel. Security in labels, a suggestion. A
link to, such sweet release. One wonders such a sight is seen more than why one would liken to it. Plushies,
they called them. Every one labelled, then. An unmoving partner who sits in corners and dust, more appalling
than appealing such as movement in partnership. Clothing is a different matter altogether.
Having a jaguar as a familiar was a definite sign of a fetich, but I kept sexuality seperate from great rites.
An entire world of creatures who live for and live off of. "Yes, dear. Give me this," and, "Query of paternity?"
Foundation of language. Nothing has to make sense, just sense the made. A dream. Leopard breaking a fast,
slicing apples on the formica altar. Next to is peeled orange, both pink. As gazed upon, alter upon the altar to
cake. A whisper, "All doth be pink in middle, Rachel. Having cake and eating are same." Awaken.
Polymorphism, combining of two or more things into a new one. Just a bisexual form of bestiality, but
with hermaphrodites. In this humans with feline character or felines with human character. The ratios vary so
much in art. A minor point, tends more toward the middle on the human side. A nice, soft coat and opposable
thumbs. Deep, reflective green eyes and a non-foreshortened skull, although lack of forehead quite attracts.
And a long tail, in the of course. Minor details, happens upon finding black and orange stripes appealing.
Should I to taverns to ogle shaved. But pictured with pointed ears and pink noses, slinking on pads whilst
purring seductively. How this makes unsense, attracted to chimeras, against instinct and logic. "Thou art not but
relations still?" "Quite so. Fondness for the hairless." Ah, a point here, of perspective. Who spoke of their
fondnesses? Alas, non-existant beings have no perspective. They bump into things. A grilled cheese doorway,
suggested by fine feathered friends.
It's a good day for pasta but what day isn't? she mulled as the water boiled. Such types of things in my
kitchen have me concerned with such things as metaphysical sandwiches. Query, I posed. How for art thou
present? Creamy goodness was the reply.
A mountain of this hill, I pondered such states as I was in. How so was this cheese infected? Nonsense, she
told. Enzymes has acidic byproducts. I agreed this was so. But for the dances on the walls, who has done to my
decor what should be on it's own floor? Ah, marble cake. What a symbol of philosophy, she spoke of. That one
can live it as well as one can speak it. Complete and same, compile and sane. Has this a period of lucidity, said
the one standing here as me. So too, she responded with a smile and a nod. Oh how the air thickens, I must be
elsewhere now, she parted with my presence, as the dryness came by and filled my senses. Sense and sensical,
she called back.
The legumes paralyzed against the walls, those dance painted walls. Where's your label it shouted and
pained the inside of this shell. You must be identified to enter this sanctified sanctuary! Speak up or remain on
this side till youth parts as well. Such as one would have, the one of myself has Rachel. How so doth thou
present such fragility as to be prone before this, she queried. Kennywood was doing business. Quickly I shut
the door concealing the Thunderbolt. Entrance is immediate, she granted.
Jelly donuts, the cuisine of concubines as I rest upon the sofa to the east of the fountain. Such fish as these
should swim for this creature is equally happy. Not much said, Rand spoke. MacNally, an old friend who knew
the path, walked with me around the walleyed circle. Sat I thought I was, how does one jump to and so? He
leaned close in for the silence as a response brought me forward into the water. For this and those, these crick
and creak down the creek. Flowers delight so by the scent, but for the sense of sensing such things one must
wander through the corn for all its children.
So I compiled and complied and motor skills did assist as I seeked out the sister to such things as orphic
morphic tantrics. Orthodoxy and heterodoxy, not quite paradoxy. Walking forward art thou, the question of a
friend. The cause of progression in the time for regression. Doing as was told, perspective came into view as
the entry cleared. Open to the inner estate of this mind.
Hurrah and huzza, the greeting. Exclaim elsewhere, could you please? The status of this is comical for
thou speaks, o pet. Indeed so, a method of communication for this communion with your mind. Tis a mind I
have but not go into. How so this is? The aroma of roses does waft by. She mewed, it's a proven fact that a
jukebox has no ears, she mewed. Poetic lunchtime with my inner felicitous felinity. Ah, but a time for tea is
time for thee! Another land of delights and lights, lit by wine. Drunken wax as it were as it was. Could you pass
the crackers? Scatty from a catty, it can be done. Is that Stacey from the duffy commercials? Couldn't be, as the
corner of the eyes clear to naught. Reasons for this episodic interlude I quested. Not for the cheese, familiar
with the philias, could you conclude? she posed. Verily, unfinished for this learning is not learned, dancing and
drinking devour the time. As it were, then, the thing to know now nears in narration.
Whiskers and wonders, ways of families with feline heritage. The prophetic messages came into the ears of
those upright. Unheeded, the signs unread, and locks not locked. It came to pass that it came to pass. Unions
and unity, heredity. The others and anothers. Mulliers and dowagers resting upon wanton autarchists. Noses
open for esquires and equines as well. Mass production gave us interchangeable parts but messy reproduction
gave us birth of stock. Those who knew not civilization forgot at quick. Those who stood and read did fear and
did label. Abomination abolishment on the flag. Charging, marching, brandishing their tools. Victory? If so,
maybe not. Who was right or who was wrong, who saw day or who saw naught. Matters to who, matters to
none. Matters did end the midnight sun.
Answers correspond to inquiry? she inquired. You told little by telling much, a reply. More to be said than
what is said. Clarity? Of thought and of word. Those who stand often do not understand. Share what you crack,
pet. Very well, then. What is known as non-existence exists. What was thought unborn has died. How you see
this world is as a man with a flag upon his brow. It hangs low and obscures the obvious. You are not being
eaten by the fnords who do not hunger. How so, and pray tell the nature of fnords? Ah, the mystery of words.
Not to be told now. Your sight, shortened by other minds. Avarice of averagecy. Bad joo joo, as it is said.
Perhaps I should not be the one to speak of such theories and delusionments. Civilization, they said, would be
the end of civility. Do you see? No, of course not. They place their labelled fabric over your ocular cavities.
They need to breathe to get the oxygen to your brain. Functional minds have air holes, you know. What you
percieve has naught to do with verity. Make what is seen within seen without. Hypostasize and hypostatize. All
things that exist doth exist. This midnight sun does shine still but few see by its light.
The lair fled, this shell can be found here, at the fountain again. Rand sits by my left, always right in his
ways. Introduction to the second secant. Send me away until this carraige returns. Away, awash, in the sea of
unseeingness. At least that much is apparant. Having fun on the waves in the ways of those that think upon and
under influence of neufchatel.
Found! An island of solitude in atlantic waves. Time? To say would be to know, causing no response. A
fortitude against attitude. Why for does this rest upon these beaches? An answer came by way of wind. A
greeting from myself, for myself. Care for a bit to have a bit of a tiff? Fighting with this other half inner
turmoil. Metaphoric solution, tied up in disillusion. To say this, say that. To speak that, the other. Verily it does
turn one around into two too. Sensical sensory is debated, for being debatable.
To say this is logical is to form the question of the nature of logical. What is to be used to satisfy this
quest? Attempting now with cheddar. Ah, but to sense and to make sense are complimentary. One is opposed
to the other in stance. Why then should the one support the other, or the other agree with the one? Should they
be the same they would be parallel. I see that not, for they intersect at perception and concept.
Not so, for one is a function of the other. Sense is made of sensing. Sensing does not solve for sense,
though it clarifies and obscures. I see no intersection, only union of equation.
To say such implies a world of logic, of reasoning. Does the bee rationalize the theft of pollen and nectar?
Does the tiger justify dinner? Do the rocks explain themselves to roots? Such does not take its place in the
natural order.
Shall I digress into natural chaos as well? For that is why it chooses not to reason with itself. Nature
knows better than words, man does not. Such as this causes us to use them, and often times this use muddies the
logic waters. We must make pause to clear them and so with our minds.
Paused eternally and transparent, dear one. Still sense remains seperate from the making of it.
So does the blossom of an apple tree have naught to do with apples? Does the grape have null relations
with wine? Are you to estrange seed and leaf?
A non-sequitor analogy.
Ah, remarking aloud to thyself, again. Naught is solved with slings and arrows.
My point made by thou. Slings and arrows and spears did start us upon this darkened path, and will not aid
in finding light. The fall of man did come many generations aft of the apple biter. Moses did ab-use words
against a practice and cast it from men's deeds. Deeds can be reined in, but for thoughts more is required. Such
as the simple phrase spoken by our own children.
Pray tell these words, then.
Out of sight, out of mind.
Questing once more for how it comes to mind if not in sight, ride the raft as it is carried. Shall this quest
bring more questing? I suppose when the year is old I shall rest and wrest from the quest.
Here is there, where their lair lays. Shadows in the corners. Reminds me of a song unsung, a dance never
formed. I call out and prod the nether regions of this dwelling, seeking the host. Nolimetangere, the cry. Come
forth that I may see. Tis not my doings which bring thy sight, a response. A carress, another. Salutations in a
whisper near my ear. A reflexive turn flashes visions of unrestrained beauty, gone as fast. Does thou have a
name, my query. She said, labels do not stick, she said. Here, definitions have no functions. But that implies
meaningless meanings, I comment. Such is why I have not a facade. To fours with me, I say with an insight for
aquiring outer-sight. Do not stand if you wish to understand. Ah, her smile, her eyes. Such sweet nectar more
taketh me than all the adulteries of art; she strikes from mine eyes the cloud of others. Her alone is the view, all
of this clears to uncover what has been covered, the wonder I have wandered for.
Awaken! the scolding of maternal care. You are missing the day. I have missed nothing, for my time was
spent in learning. Nonsense, thou hast chores. Perform your preformed duties. Such as fills the day, leaving
naught chance of growth in the mind; the veil returned, a flag unfurled. Perhaps unknowing best. Mayhaps
unso. Born and unborn, mind and mine. Flag of what nation blinds the citizen? Flag of cries and lies! Sided
truth, falsehood lingering. Questing for testing, a telling of selling, tails and tales, longer yet. A bought with
doubt. Oracles and prophets did warn; interpret and intercept. Stories of worries. Sensing and making sense?
Ordered the chaos, it did; a rhythm of random in the oceans of ancient. How so doth they stand under gaze yet
have not gaze fall upon them? For the people, by the people; confine their like? Led as blind as the blind? What
company they may keep! Beings that do not bother, yet bothered by the beings. Peculiar predators of
perception, selective solicitation of sensing. Unsensical! Furred in fascinations, not in familiars. Quite quiet
they must be, unsensed by the five. Ah, but the sixth, if so! Maybe not nonsense. To quest again, learned minds
doth seek learning more!
Once by the fountain, twice, and now again. A monument in the middle of mental estates. Dreams in the
day carry me here; to her. Movement here from the cave. I know to sense not make. Difficult as of yet, yet I
resolve to solve a problem of such. Feral it aids. To level with level. Visions and vision. Wanting not to part
from wonton ports. Come along and belong, a mew. Follow furry ones down the path of precocious poly-Polly.
Genes? Hardly, Harvey. However so, scent and center; travelling trails lit of midnight sol.
Narration to fit and fill the walk. Our stories told many times in secret, far from their eyes yet in their gaze.
The trouble started with standing laws. Oracles warned of danger. Perhaps to us, but interpreted by the literate.
Perceptions of a warning against those deemed unpure from the start. Confusion abound; they took up their
arms. In wisdom, prophet spoke against matters; naught the slaughter, forge no fnords. Peaceful solution was
issued forth but doomed ignorance to infect rods and cones. Sad as it is. Very few have felt our presence, fewer
still have sensed. Adjustment difficult both ways. But the flag no longer conceals.
Still concealed, the matters of sex. What fun it is, she mewed. You have your cake, now to eat. Why not?
Origin of the problem was interbreeding. Absurd, a scolding. Fear, a fever infection of frenzied phobia.
Security found behind the blindness, she said, sex is expression of mutual adoration, any form of such cannot
be a defilement nor defiled. Let them have their laws, but know they need not cage you in their black iron
prison. The empire can end. Escape from reality is not wrong, but escape from reality is. Parabolic parables.
The three of the cave, bound for unreason. Care was taken of; a tube for this, a drain for that; all the while
dim shadows dance on the walls, artificial projections. All they knew. A time came, one loosed self to wander
to mouths of caves. The light, the harsh light brought pain at the first, dialation eased it away. Such natural
beauty (doth there be any other?) overwhelmed. A return to darkness to tell the tale. With pupils shrunk, vision
lost. Scorned in stories of flowers and birds, trees and deer; thou cannnot see, how hast thou seen? Escape shall
turn blind this eye and drive mad this vessel as it has thine. Alas, some joys cannot be shared, some minds
cannot be opened, just as some words cannot be defined, some truths cannot be spoken.
Deemed true, possibly false. If word not defined, found not a word. Such as one should think. Speak then,
of this fnord. Perhaps possible now with clarity of cavity, organs singing sweet melodious praise of this and
thine; rescent york time. Part cause, part effect; with affect possessed of self. Little yet large; pineal confiner.
Naught in sequitor, here in narration. For if one should see yet not, one would be prey. Ah, but if one should
see and so, one would be prey. The predator attacks the same, phobic claws. Hunger not with no mouth to fill,
yet eating the seeing. A function of flags: who knows would tell, who tells would fall silent at hands of those
who conspire to keep the peeping peepers from peeping such possibility. A signifier of free minds. These do
this well? Usage only for that fact. Cerebral edification, come to pause. Shall we further along paths of nightly
Voyage far to lands undreamt of. Such as one should find, beings of fascination; for sensed they are, not
made of. How so, and where? Here there is naught of fear, for here is home of thou. Cognize and recognize.
Familiar as familiars; peered upon as peers. What phantasized phantoms felt by fascination, ah, but a furrow in
fabric. Witness wonders of washed windows. Laid down in hollows, led into houses. A life unseen is a life of
means. Over and ever, under and wonder; every and all, tis where. Fled, we must have been. Trails to travel,
tours to take. Aways with us!
Sense to make and sense to take. Selections of sight send mess of mind. A quest in questing. Curious cat,
brought back. Sense seperate of its making. Said before, said again. Standings aloof of understandings. In
logic, the conclusion you reach mayhaps your own. Perceive what you cannot conceive. Delighted flowers
proposed sensing over making it. Verily explained. One cannot make sense of sensing over making sense, only
sense the truth in sensing. Truth not found, sensing not compleat. Fait accompli, a goal soon accomplished,
with aid of present presence, a precious predator. She said, such talk brings purrs, she said.
The road came to an end. Left right where started. Purpose of walking? All is flux, a funda-mental lesson.
Those which stay still do so by unsensing their own movement. The earth moves, quakes, yet is said to be
stable, a foundation. A fool builds upon the sands, but an idiot thinks he is safe upon the rock. Crick crack,
wacked. Watch as the gilled ones swim. Fancy frolic, free. They know of flux and cause currents with fins,
constant motion, they know. Stillness is nirvana, death of self. And self is a universe all its own. A still
universe knows no joy, no pain; no suffering, no desire. A great saddness it is for they never knew a simple
truth. And that would be? How can you have your pudding if you don't eat your meat.
A study of self under the standing of sensing. If one should see one yet not become devoured, one would
be sure of security in sight. Ah, but if one should see and be prey, one would rather be blinded. How so, doth
unsensical be sensed? Not by making unsense, non! But by making none neither way. Feral, as it were and was.
Is this a creature of abandon or a thinker by days and by ways? Troubling this wondering, worrying. Such
visions of veritude would victimize, quite caged in comical concerns as creatures of naught! Ah but for the
grace of reason doth I commune with so. Tails telling tales, paradox the orthodox, finned flux. Wisdom of
wonder. Such solicitous silliness. Be still, silent as I sum. A feline facade hidden for what reason, a grace as
your face, to conceal is to unfeel. Pulse owned by this; wasted not on the pursuits of others. Rhythms flow and
dance as here touches and plays. Query for the questor. Does thou find me pretty? I've found thee. That's all
that need be said.

Catechism Psycherotica
answered by Joseph Raschack
2.67 What Is Psycherotica?
Psycherotica has existence; as such, it also has non-existence. Ask the Buddhists for the answer to that one.
4.1 Is man a spirit?
Here's a short exercise you can do to find out for yourself. Close your eyes and get a picture of a cat. Done?
Now, imagine yourself fucking that cat. That which is fucking the cat is you, a spirit.
4.9 Will Psycherotica put one in control of his mind?
Yes. First, we will install a delusion that you are not your mind or body, then we will teach you how to mess
with them in a detatched manner.
4.10 Is Psycherotica about the mind?
That depends on where the mind is.
6.1 How do Psycherotics view life?
As a tasty serial and a bored game. It's also quite fun on Saturday knights.
6.2 What moral codes do Psycherotics live by?
Well, there's the ass-key code, morse code, hex code (but only during full moons), and basement-2. Some of
the fundamentalist Psycherotics still use he-be-sea-dick.
6.3 What is Psycherotica's view on drugs?
MORE MORE MORE!! Unless, of course, they're substances; then they'd have to be free.
6.5 Do you have any special dietary laws or rules against smoking or drinking in
No. In fact, we have rules promoting both. Every Psycherotic is expected to sell cigarettes to minors for a
quarter each, or vice–versa. And we often drink a few pots of coffee to get the mojo flowing.
6.10 What does "psych the planet" mean?
It means that Psycherotica wants to psych the planet into an insane civilization of self-declared gods and kings,
where anybody can fuck as they see fit without having to repress or promote their fetishism.
6.11 What does "Normal" mean?
According to G. Mutha Hubber, a Normal is "an asshole who sees something as offensive."
6.13 Is Psycherotica a cult?
Yes. Why the hell would you think otherwise? To a Psycherotic, everything is a cult. Goth, Punk, Elvis,
Pokemon, even people with driver's liscenses are considered a cult.
6.14 Does Psycherotica engage in brainwashing or mind control?
The simple fact that we express ourselves with the intention of affecting change in others makes us
brainwashers. However, we seek to destroy all control in the mind, allowing people to "fuck it up" so that we
don't have to.
7.13 Why is everything anacopyrighted in Psycherotica?
Most of what we write is context-based. If it were taken out of context, you might actually understand it.
Therefor, we encourage each collection to be distributed in its entirety.
7.14 Does the IRS recognize the Psycherotic Church as a non-profit organization?
11.3 How is Psycherotica different from philosophy or other religions?
Write your own dam answer.
The River of Cheese
a stream from the consciousness of
Chapter of the First
Ah, yes. The merry days of yester-year, as if such a thing could be extrapolated from sandwich formations
found in the garage. Where, she said, could such things be discovered if not within the confines of a closed
system moving toward entropy? Dada consists of yellow american cheese, I responded. A blunt refusal
followed concerning the consistency of dada. I had the manifestation of my nuits during puberty, were the
words that fell unto the multi stained pillow tree. Hovering above the grass inside the barn was a mouse,
jumping upon horse stalks as if to say, the green beans shall have none of my betamorphial meat pies! Havana!
Just as the tea cups clink together in the basket, so too shall we lift our spirits! Fried onions dance the dance of
our forefathers; I feel like chicken tonight! Came the whispered scream, Don't lift your spirits, shoplift your
spirits! Free wine! It was framed, was the screamed whisper. Be a frog, be a tulip, you can do it all on a sofa
made of corn beans.
Have I yet to mention the magic of the sacred bagels, she asked of them. Only on Tuesday could such a
proposal be validated as parking. Dance, Hulio. George would have wanted it that way. I am the reincarnation
of George, she whispered in fear of her mother-in-law. How could such a ghastly oversight have been made in
our records? You say you were never even born? How odd, yet I am still puzzled as to the state of ecstacy; it
cannot be found on this map. Would you care to elaborate upon your discovery of the chicken fried fox gloves?
A muttered reply, I would graciously do so if not for the miscommunication between the two parties involved in
the tao jones industrial complex scandal. Industrially complex, I say. Wormwood yet? Hush dear, mother said.
But I would so enjoy some Wormwood. May I? Hush dear. Don't make me rip the beaver from your throat and
perform acts of sodomy upon your skull. Can I soak you in hamburger grease, pour ketchup on your face and
make you eat pickles? Why not? Don't you like pickles? Pickles make me feel special.
Chapter of the Second
I could have swore that I was attempting to mock this style of music, he said politely. Bewildered she spoke in
tongues, tripping over some of the longer ones. Where oh where is my handbook on Discordian geometry? Oh,
here it is, right under the OH MY GOD, BARNEY'S DEAD! Who's Barney, she wondered. Barney was a cat,
he told. And he was dead. What did you do about it? she asked. I cried and turned him into fertilizer. Now he
makes the flowers grow AND THAT'S BEAUTIFUL. Care for some sympathy cheese? I like cheese. Cheese
makes me feel special. No, I would not eat sympathy cheese in a box or with a fox. Go away, git. Fuzzy Wuzzy
was a bear, but that never stopped the pixies from towing away his car at night. Perhaps most perplexing is the
lack of grovington hydratic equation applications for the //c, whatever that may or may not be, which depends
on what mood it happens to be in at the time. Can I sprinkle you with Gary dust now? Oh I think I can. I like
hills. They make me feel special. Do you dance also? Do the hustle if you're sure. Just a thought before I go; if
Fuzzy Wuzzy had no hair, would he still be Fuzzy Wuzzy, or would we be more apt to use the word apt in a
phrase for the live viewing audience to describe the shaven critter before the cameras?
Chapter of the Third
I want to teach the world to sing, but I can't quite get this tune out of my head. Who is this Stacey Q and why
won't the grasshoppers fly with me to the land beyond the rainbowed horse? I would so appreciate some
assistance in matters concerning my sanity. Silly willy, she scolded. That's not a threat, it's an advertisement.
How dreary to be somebody, the frog told me, but I could not hear over the others croaking madly away.
Papped-cell death, I said of the cushioned batteries. Oh, yeah, that's a mighty fine cup of joe, I told her. She
said, You should try the Kevin some time, she said. Ever and after, chasing ducks as they squeel their childish
delight. Where was that damn holy rose anyway? Just in case the circus never finds the freeway, can we keep
the small man? I like the way he dances and he's so good with the kids, John. Please excuse the lack of nouns in
the following sentence. Get to milking! You've never seen Jupiter, she asked in amazement as she reached up
and plucked the moon from the window shelf. Here, have some peppered cheese and onion rings. Daddy made
them himself. Can I get a closer look at that pencil. I suspect it has written something aweful. How could you
tell, she asked. The paper narced on it. And they all regressed into slow-witted milk drinkers, even though they
couldn't figure out how to put the quarter in the cow.

I hope he isn't still bitter about Rachel Leigh Cook
refusing to demonstrate the ill effects of
heroin in his kitchen.
Any questions?

The Book of the PotatoMeister
written by the little boy named Bob
Chapter 1: Birth
Ah, yes. I remember it well.
Two of the kittens died.
The rest were sold.
I still have the two dead kittens.
They're my special friends.
Chapter 2: Life
Life, what a beautiful choice.
But it's not a choice,
it's a child.
And soon, it's up for adoption
but he's still paying child support.
Chapter 3: Marriage
The union of two souls is unlike
anything I've ever seen
except for this weird skeleton
that was half raccoon and three parts bald eagle.
It was cool.
Chapter 4: Sex
I once had a dog
or did the dog have me?
I was puppy raped.
Chapter 5: Death, in general
Did I ever die?
No, I don't think so.
I've been quite alive since I can remember.
Except for that bad trip…
Chapter 6: Suicide
I have committed suicide many times.
Why are you looking at me like I'm insane?
Chapter 7: Homicide
Oh, so you want to die?
Then why'd you bring it up?
Murder tease.
Chapter 8: Afterlife
Aren't there ducks in the afterlife?
Or was it puppies?
Nope, it was kittens.
Two of them.

The campaign was going so well… until the infanticide jokes. Trust the art of the irrational. It just may get you
laid. Intestinal insanity, is what she told me. The feces are as sane as they ever were, which isn't saying much
for the methane. Doublethink, my dear. In me the tiger sniffs the rose. Amani, as foretold, such a felt should
shed, she said. A beast, but a just and plushed beast, told to this by Temple. A gentleman haranguing on the
perfection of our law, and that it was equally open to the poor and the rich, was answered by another, "So is the
local tavern." All this buttoning and unbuttoning.

Defence, not defiance. He talked inanities like a twenty-third muse. See the happy Psycho, he doesn't give a

After coiton, every animal is sad. Let us return to our sheep. Discords make the sweetest airs. Ah, but Psychotic
fugues unwrap such gifts of goddesses. All I ask is a polyester bagel, a sophia in acrylic; oh but for the cotton

Therefor, let us sing and dance a galliard,
To the dislexic teachings of the mallard;
And as the mallard dives in pool,
Let us dribble, drobble, and drebble in Bowl.
Oh! By the genitals of Lady Arana,
Oh! By the genitals of Lady Arana,
It was a drooling, dislexic mallard.

The Lost Remains of the Ancient Scrolls of Duckism

Atara said, "What is this wisdom then?"
The Duck suggested, ".dlot eb nac modsiw ekil ,aeY"
And Atara lusted.
scroll two: the non-enlightenment of Carl Wackd
When Carl Wackd came to Sinsity for the first time,
he asked the Duck, "What is education?"
Although Carl Wackd knew alot of things
and had graduated from ten colleges with honors,
he still inquired about real education.
"The people say I'm smart and I'm such a fool that I believe those morons."

Carl Wackd replied, "You have no idea what education is, do you?"
The Duck suggested, ".sey ,eulc a ton dna sraey eseht llA"
Carl Wackd mumbled as he walked away, "Answer lies within, my ass."
Carl Wackd was not enlightened that day,
but he did get laid by a really hot chick who was into intellectuals.
scroll three: Shaving a Hairy Krishna
"We must understand that our suffering is due to our sinful activity,
and sinful activity is due to our ignorance," the one guy said.
The other replied, "That may well be so,
but how are we to gain the knowledge to overcome suffering?"
The one guy said, "Let's ask that duck over there.
Pretty little duck, how are we to overcome suffering?"
The Duck replied,

When Steve McQueen was asked,
"What is the most wonderful thing in the world?"
he laughed heartily and walked away.
scroll six: Of golden cows and Yellow Cheese
"We should therefor conclude that because God is everywhere,
he is also in his statue, in the image made of him.
Whether an image or statue speaks to us or not
is dependant on the degree of our devotion.
But if we choose to see the image merely as a piece of wood or cheese,
Krsna will always remain wood or cheese for us.
Isn't idol worship fun, Steve?" Carl Wackd asked.
Steve McQueen laughed heartily and walked away.
scroll seven: Dorothy's Identity
Carl Wackd came before the Duck and said,
"Oh, Duck—"
"!pu taht naelC" the Duck suggested.
Carl Wackd cleaned it up and continued.
"Oh, Duck, who is this man Steve McQueen
and why does he laugh so?
Where does he go when he walks away?"
",niatruc eht dniheb nam eht ot noitnetta on yaP" the Duck suggested.
"Is that an answer?" Carl Wackd asked.
"?srewsna tuoba uoy llet I did tahW" the Duck retorted.
Carl Wackd mumbled as he walked away, "Stupid curtains."
Carl Wackd was not enlightened that day,
but he did find a penny on the sidewalk.
scroll eight: A Single Fragment
One who sees inaction in action,
and action in inaction,
is reasonably sensible,
if he doesn't confuse the two.
scroll nine: Carl goes loony… in a bad way
"I am the source of all spiritual and material worlds!
Everything emanates from me!
The wise who know this perfectly
engage in my devotional service
and worship me with all their hearts!"
So proclaimed Carl Wackd to Steve McQueen on that evening.
Steve McQueen laughed heartily and walked away.
The Book of the Balanced Unbalance
written by Lonnie the Iris
That's what she said, she said Isn't it a fine day for Bagels, is what she said. I just laughed, tuesdays aren't
today, y'know? Be advised that your first day of domestication is next week and that you should be accustomed
to the use of toilet paper by that time. The roll, it attacts and attracts! I went to partake of some squares and it
tried to boa constrict me. Don't be a wanker, ya wanker, and wipe it off next time. Nabookie wants to sweep
over and pway womb raider, mommy. Swatch and wash your watch and mouth. Nabookie is a dirty dirty boy
who should be drug into the street and allowed to have dogs sniff his behind. But I thought you said drugs were
bad. Only if you have to lick the wrapper, dearie. Now off to bed and on to dream land. Ah, but she heard, ya
can't lick a rapper but ya can lick his pencil. Anyone have any writing implements? Oh, Molly, you do have a
way with that laugh of yours. Now please go away with or without Sheriff Jon Brown. I have yet to shoot a
deputy, but Eric of Much Applause has been pinged a few, along with reality, but our connection to the host
was down. So I logged a log and downloaded a few thorns of porn. It hurts so good, by the cougar it did!
Havana! A chimera in the story, as the moncoon leaves his abode to impart a few bits of wisdom. He said, a
quote of Petrofski, he said. The little yellow ones make the best pets, but you have to make sure the toilet paper
doesn't try to eat them. Ah, such revelations as should come with the cum. Don't discuss the disgusting, she
scolded. Whom art thou, I pondered aloud as I was allowed. That a femme should be yet have not labelling
done to her being. Ah, but if you were to know, I shalt have to paint thee green and black as a monitor with a
rainbowed fruit upon it. Such mystery, such as a banked portion of memory. Does anyone remember where the
amnesia is? It was a dirty dirty little boy who took it, y'know? What a fine day for Bagels, she reiterated. You
weren't correct when you said it, so why do something so bold as reiterate your incorrectness? She said, why
not, she said. If none other would be wrong, then all would be wrong. For a right, there must be a left, for a
left, there must be a wrong. Aw shuckins, yall might be left on that. Seemingly so, as I type, I find others in the
keyboard. Should insert or delete? Page Up or Esc? Who is this F12 anyways? Ah, but the keys of captivity
shall have written upon them CAPS, for the letters used by such morons who would try to control their minds
by giving control to cult-ures other than that which make the Cheese. Enzymatic action! Automatic autonomy!
A zone of Bey masquerading as a sibling to warneriffic beings. Polkadot? Sure, why not? Grab the accordian,
get naked, and polka polka polka!! It's gonna be a fine time up on the mounted washington! Auld lang syne!
When the dresses undressed and the pants panted! What a polyester night it was, for us together under the null
moon of null modem. Don't ever, do never forget the demodulation, mine friend, for if thou modulates, thou
must demodulate! Unless ya got a T3, then I don't know what thou's gotta do. She said, I like my network for it
does not go limp and shrink like so many do, she said. Ah, but to phreak a line to an Isp, all would be free.
Except for the psychological payment of adverts, she reminded. Television is paid for thrice over, in the
purchase of cathode ray tubes, the menstrauls of monthlies on the cables, a third time for the time wasted upon
half-time at the bowl of kryptonians. A point well made, now pleased if you were to remove it from my side as
I turn on air and watch the shadows make their pinkish-hued noise. Better than artificial acidic substance, I do
say, as the trails go away when the movie's over. Why are the credits rolling, Dave? Dave? Dave's not here
man. Oh oh, bad trip. Don't fall, don't jump, don't think about it dude. Just chill and enjoy the harsh bitter
reality as you slowly reassimilate into the world you hate. UMMO had tought alot that day, as the clouds
hologrammed before me and gave our goddess flight. Good night, she said in the morning, as I tried not to
mourn my self-control. Love is like a rock, he reminded from the waves riding the one-oh-two-point-five
megahertz. Ah, mediation between the Onions and the Cheese. A state of balanced unbalanced. She said, that
explains it all, she said.

The Book of the Response to a Letter Recieved
written by Sarah Sinclair
From: Sarah Sinclair
To: Sir Lionold Henry Polyday III
Re: Psychosis is psych, psych, psych!
Sir Polyday,
I would like to thank you for your letter concerning your difficulties with Psycherotica. It was slightly
informative and a little less than entertaining, even if we did laugh alot while reading it. Rather than replying
with our usual grab bag of propaganda, though, we have decided to address your concerns in a proper and
appropriate manner.
First, you have challenged the authenticity and verity of the ducky entities known as the ducks. While we
agree that the ducks in the rivers and lakes do not speak, forward or backward, these are not the same ducks as
the ducks. The ducks of Psycherotica are not the ducks that swim in rivers and lakes, rather they are the ducks
that speak backward and give us suggestions as to certain courses of actions or ideas. It is at the suggestion of
such a duck that I find myself writing this. Again, the ducks are not ducks, they are ducks in duck symbolism.
Please feel free to stop talking to the river ducks if they continue to bite you.
If your dog consented, we're fine with it. I do not think that the parakeet consented, though.
No, you do not have to worship Petrofski, or attempt a personal relationship with him. However, if you
choose to try again in the future, please keep in mind that he does not give head to just anybody. More cries of,
"Suck me, suck me, big daddy, take my cock deep," will only make the others in the park look at you funny
and arrest you.
We enjoyed the many jokes scribbled in the margins, even if we have read them in Reader's Digest.
Actually, we never read Reader's Digest, but one must assume since they all had such titles as, "Humor in
Uniform" and "Killer Blonde Bitches from Zeta-Thyroid 8."
Lastly, there is the matter of the four references to Lady Arana as Diana-of-the-wet-dreams. Arana is not
Diana the moon goddess, but if you ask nicely, Arana will moon you. If, however, this was not who you were
referring to, I ask of you to stop anyway, for your ex-wife's sake. She can press charges, and probably will, if
you continue to have dreams of breaking into her house and stealing her panties. I am fairly confident that these
are not dreams, Sir, for I have spoken with her on such matters as missing wardrobes.
We would like to thank you again for your letter. Please do not ever write to us again.

between the greenish-glowing characters as said characters slowly suggest to my mind that they just might be

few switches near C050 and I find myself looking at a badly Hplotted duck, wondering to myself, "Did this
affect loc's 800–BFF? 'Cause I kinda had data on text page two…" Then C030 is accessed, toggling the
speaker, and I hear a rough approximation of someone running a sound data feild in reverse. The duck speaks!

And after the cheese was passed, I went back to the CATALOG and found the file I had saved upon the duck's
prompting. On a hunch, I boot up my File Viewer prog and check out the ASCII, and lo-and-behold, a message
from Arana! 1K of our fine and P.H.A.T. goddess, twisting some verse for our philosophical insanitization.
(Centering and LF's courtesy of me.)
I am the goddess that hath given thee pleasure
And I am the goddess that will give thee thought.
The nature of fetish is such that it holds no things.
Fetish not of or for things, rather for Orgasm;
the fetish being a method of recieving this gift.
As method, it becomes apparent that it is Action, not Possession;
the kinetics of the Erotic.
Erotic and Non-Erotic are the same:
the seeking of pleasure through method.
If a person shies away, they do so to avoid unpleasantness;
Just as a person drawing close does so for pleasantness.
Fear and Phobia are but responses to the nature of the Erotic potential;
the Erotic potential nothing more than the "defining quality".
"Defining quality" covers more than Phobia/Philia;
it is the Matter, the substance of a thing,
it is the Energy, the actions of an event,
it is the Ratio, the relation of Energy and Matter,
and it is the source of all Things, Ideas, and so forth.
Verily, it is the Cheese.
I am the goddess Arana and these are my words.

Only profiting from it."
Subverting the Subversives
Havana and hail Arana! Tis a green bagel that brings us here today! Symbolic, you query? I reply thusly;
"FUCK YOU ALL! I WEAR BOOTS!!" The commercialization and commodification of Fetish is the topic today. We
might also be covering the perverting of subcultures by Normulian sheep. But first, we must introduce the two
main categories of Normals.
6. The Lemming. Has a driving need, pushing them forward into oblivion. The source of the need? What
others around them are doing. The end of the need? Need you ask? This type of Normal has no idea that
there may be something wrong with hir. To these we say, "What is my true desire?" [see note five]
7. The Sheep. Either sits around all day feeling secure despite that not-so-sheepish looking fellow drooling
nearby, or wanders around not knowing it is getting lost. This type of Normal knows exactly what's wrong
with Society and will spend hours bleating it in your face. They may even know about Normality, but will
deny having any part of it. To these we say, "I am perfectly fine with your denial."
Some of you may notice that the analogy to sheep is rather loose and ill-formed. Oh well, right? At least we get
to keep the "lamb of god" jokes alive.
The reason I am writing this is because I have seen something that I have always thought to be bizarre and
extremely rare [see note twenty-five] turn out to be normal and profitable enough tohave a commercial porn site
devoted to it. (I won't give particulars or endorsements.) There's also a site by a person calling themselves
MistressGwendolyn (how original, like a hot dog) who wrote a report on it, giving ways to PROFIT from it.
And then, I woke up. I came out of my dazed, Sheep-like wandering and realized I had been lost for the
last two years. Rather than sit down and start praying that my shepard gets here to help (do I even have a
shepard?) I've decided to just fuck it all and re-read Hakim Bey/Peter Lamborn Wilson.
Yes, people, Fetishism is a hot commodity. What the hell do you expect when the term is used to described
Commercialism? And that ain't all, folks. Our sub-cultures are deteriorating, due to this commodification. To
quote Charla Trotman, founder of Burned Fur: "Most people I know don't have too much trouble distinguishing
between a 'lifestyle choice' and a 'warning sign.'" Do you?
Remember the good old days when anybody who didn't bathe more than twice a week was called
dirty? Or when bad hair-do's were obvious hair-don'ts? How about music that had musical qualities to
it? Not anymore! Now we must spend two hours and a bottle of mousse each morning making our
hair look like we just got out of bed. We don't have to bathe to be accepted by society. Music doesn't
have to have any merits to it, just a mention of Anarchy.
Any fifteen year old kid can buy a few patches, safety-pin them to a jacket, dye their hair some
odd-ball color, go about screaming "ANARCHY!!" without knowing what an "-archy" is, and be
called a Punk! Is he a Punk? HE OWNS A COMB!! He thinks Green Day is old-school! Motherfuck,
the kid doesn't even know how to SPELL Anarchy!
And, perhaps most disconcerting, he actually thinks Anarchistic tendencies are a prerequisite to
being Punk! YOU DON'T HAVE TO HATE THE GOVERNMENT! Just the establishment, most of
society, the price of booze, and everyone around you.
But, hey, I'm not a Punk, so I won't write their manifesto. But I am an anti-culturalist who is pissed off by the
fact that I need a credit card to view free porn online. What-the-fuck, really? Isn't it enough that I can just
verify my age by clicking a link with the caption "By clicking here you certify that you are over 18"? Sure,
some kids will click and surf on in, BUT THAT'S THEIR PARENTS FAULT FOR NOT UNPLUGGING THE
DAM THING WHILE THEY'RE AT WORK!! If parents can't be the least bit responsible, let's enforce
mandatory Nun-operated orphanages. (I'm sure it would drop the abortion rate, too.) Only moron kids get
caught, and only Normal parents complain. I say, get the fucking morons off the net and let us have fun!
Fetishism—a process of evolution allowing us to experience the Erotic potential of certain things
Fetishization—the consumeristic notion that owning or doing a certain thing will make one happy
Eroticism is not happiness. Happiness is a psuedo-spiritual, emotional condition where everything feels right;
happiness makes you content. Eroticism, however, makes you horny, irritable, and a slew of other mental states
that will drive you forward to a single goal: Orgasm.
"Home of the Whopper" as opposed to Food
Specialized bars catering to certain groups as opposed to Less bombable places to fuck
College degrees as opposed to Learning something
"Obey your thirst. Sprite." as opposed to "God, I'm thirsty. Can I stroke you off?"
That's the difference.
Now that we've got that out there for you to digest, let's spurt out more for you to decide whether to Spit or
Swallow. Ever notice how Mtv co-opts subcultures and turns them into massive adolescent fads? The co-opting
of hip-hop/rap gave us Wiggers (that's what you are, honky!). They picked up on Punk giving us Blink182 and
the lot (somehow I don't think a group of people as independant as Punks would allow themselves or their
bands to become "just numbers"). They've been trying to take metal away from us through Head-Banger's Ball,
inventing M.Manson, producing numerous Metallica specials, and other suck-ass things. Since Mtv only does
music (yea, you try finding any videos during a Real World marathon) they need other ways to subvert the
subversives: Nickelodeon! And if stealing children's minds isn't enough, TVLand! They keep them!
But I don't have cable anymore so I can't write that manifesto. But it is important to realize how They
work—They being Capitalist Media Gods; the owners of these vast networks and stations. Rupert Murdock
owns American communications more than AT&T ever did and has more money than Bill Gates ever will. Ever
heard of him? Only when people are speaking outside his realm like I am now. Murdock owns everything, they
say what he lets them say. Otherwise, it's DownSizing, motherfuckers!
These people keep their money by keeping an eye on us. We see a sub-culture forming, they see a profit-
margin-increasing fad. They've done it with music (Chicago boys sing Jazz?), with anti-societal groups (dada,
Goth, Punk, Wicca), cyber-culture (admit it; you've seen an emoticon), and they're doing it to the most
perverted, bizarre, sick, disgusting, and deviant of us all: the Fetishists.
Admit it! You have a Fetish! Like blondes? Like big titties? Enjoy being spanked by a woman in leather?
Ever fantasize about a cartoon/anime character? Then you're a Fetishist! Blondes, big breasts, BDSM, and
toons are all certain things that have an Erotic potential!
And the Media Gods want you to pay for pictures and videos of it! Ever hear of plushophilia? The Erotic
potential of stuffed animals. There is a Pay-to-get-in Porn Site for these people. Excuse me but if you are one,
then you have one, and you don't need pictures! Why then would there be a site for it? The simple fact that
there isn't five hundred sites for it says alot about what we can do about this problem.
Of course there is! WE'RE PAYING TO GET OUR ROCKS OFF!! Isn't that problem enough?
Well, actually, it isn't. They're also giving our fetishes ad space and turning our small-yet-enjoyable sub-
cultures into melting-pots of insanity. Case-in-point: A Furry is anyone who likes animal based cartoons,
stories, or art. At least, that what it used to be. Now, it's any werewolf, full-time mascot, or reincarnated
unicorn. As was said earlier, lifestyle choices are fine. Go ahead and proudly wear a rainbow button. Dress in
leather and hit the clubs. Answer the phone with a meow. What the fuck do I care what you do? But we must
pay attention to the warning signs:
• FASHION FAGGOTS: "Yes, I'm gay! I'm proud to be gay! It's COOL to be gay!"
• ESCAPIST FURRIES: "I'm a vegan, I like Animaniacs, and I like it doggy-style, so I must be a furry."
• N-R-KEE PUNKS: "Fuck you! I'm Punk as fuck! Anarky rulez! FUCK THE GUV!!"
• FASHION GOTHS: "I'm so goth I'm dead! And tomorrow, Bobby's gonna make me a vampire!"
Were you paying attention? Don't let this happen to your sub-culture! Stay bland. Stay so completely
unprofitable that no one would ever dare to want to be as cool as you, no matter how cool others say you are.
Place your art in the Public Domain so that it can't be sold-for-profit. Refuse to pay for internet porn! Stop
being a sheep of the Capitalist flock!
This has been a Psycherotic text written by Lord Chuff, Minister of Fetish. Just a reminder that the only Psycherotica is what you
make. And another reminder that the ducks are our friends. Hi oo lac, all you Skunk-fuckers!
Five. We ask about our desire because the shock treatment no longer works. Instead of pulling a Hare Krishna on them, we ask
them honestly for help. (At least, we give the impression of honesty.) If there's hope for them, they'll remember the question and
may apply it to themselves. If there's no hope, they give us an answer and continue on to the cliff.
Twenty-five. I am not the woman on the bus. I am not the woman on the bus. I do not carry around ancient, dirty stuffed wolfs and
foam spiders on wire leashes. I am not the woman on the bus…

The Book of the Introductory Paragraphs
written by Sarah Sinclair
Oh the logic they expound like a twenty-third muse, amused by theory and alien sciences. Do they
see the errors? That illogic has no logic other than the cheese that is the true nature of nature? That
they have forgotten this fact is of no real concern, it is that they have polluted their writings with it!
Oh what hath befallen the state of man that he should do such a thing? He would justify thusly, that
the writings are only found under the notion of not believing anything you write. Then why include
them, one would respond? Exemplary examples! Why give what to believe when saying what not to
believe? This is not indoctrination here, this is a reordering of the mind for the purpose of creating
chaotic creativity! Think or be thought! And I pause here as a paragraph break. To claim the nature of
such would suggest the originality and seeming randomness found in our ancient writings. Where are
the new conceptions, the original definitions, the bizarre dogmas found not anymore? They claim to
have matured! And to thread other ideas through the writings in hidden manners! All I see is the
reissuing of other people's work with reworkings following as a so-called new interpretation! Where
is the cheese, the ducks, Petrofski? Then our goal has been achieved, they claim. Unsense! This was
meant as a sequal, not as a continuation. It bears little resemblence to ancient texts because such texts
are yellow and dusty, like my lungs. Found here are examples and hints as to the nature of
information, education, society, religion, and sciences. That is all that it should be and not, as the
ancient texts were, an attempt to drastically redefine the universe and cause the person to stand upon
original meanings. Such goal was accomplished, and we have made this as a reminder of the
quicksand of Truth and Reality. Ah, I retort, but aren't Falsehoods and Realty as quick as the sand as
well? Not verily, for Falsehoods can be seen for what they are and are as easily discarded as a
daydream of Realty. To change either of those we need only say, it has changed thusly. But to change
Truth and Reality, we must work under its current guidelines, implementing the system known as
sorcery. Paragraph break. If all of this is so, please elaborate upon the saturation of Ummo. Is a few
passing references not enough? Respond thusly, that the saturation of Ummo is only as severe as was
the Assitian Order, their cousins in secrecy and sciences. But the Assitians are not Ummites, nor are
the Ummites to be confused with the Assitians. Only should a furry Stephen Hawkins with Rachael
Leigh Cook's body be confused with the Assitians. The Sirians can be confused with Ummo, if you
wish, for they are connected through the Priory of Sion. STOP! This is absurdity and insanity!
Exactly, he says calmly. Paragraph renewed with a question of Duckism. Don't ask me. Suretus
knows more about that than I do. Is there a Suretus, Chuffer? Honestly? Yes, honestly. That question
is not valid. How so? I'll think of that later. An other paragraph. I would feel I understand now that
the sequal is intentionally stupid, to confuse even the initiates, but that would imply a mystery
tradition. Such is suggested by the Duckism scrolls, indirectly of the ducks. Ah! A hidden point. No
matter in this concluding document. I shall leave it only as a clue of other deeper meanings and
interpretations and applications in lives of Psycherotic experience. May the ducks be your friends,
may you find reason to say hi oo lac, and may the cheese rise up within you and spurt forth creamy
goodness. Thank you and have an ice day.

The Psychonomicon
sometimes referred to as
The Psycheroticon
and also known as
The Book of Mindsex
or more simply
A Duck Pond
Α ηι οο λακ Ω
as written by
Steve McQueen, founder of
the Cacophonous Halcyon's Epistomological Enigma of Sophist Enigmas
and translated by
The Sequal Production Company Beta: Psyche is with us,
The Assitian Order, and Ummo
Next to the Christian bible, the Bhagavad Gita, and the Tao Te Ching, the Psychnomicon is the most
important yet least read book in the world. There are several reasons that the Psycheroticon is so important. The
first is that the Psychonomicon is considered to be the fundamental text of both Psycherotica and Philosophic
Dadaism. The second reason is its brevity, which makes one wonder why it's so dam long. The third is its
deceptive supidity. One can read this text many times and still have no idea if it was meant as a joke or is as
real as the evil clowns lurking under the bed at night.
This translation is based on a set of manuscripts found in Sub-basement 5 of the Assitian Order's
compound, under a really old wooden rocking chair. The manuscripts, having been written on silk sheets, were
mainly ignored for the last two thousand years, since no one ever considered the possibility that they were
anything other than an old shawl. Only when a child was locked in Sub-basement 5 while playing predator–
prey (similar to hide-and-seek but with less hiding) and decided to stop crying and take a nap was it discovered
that there was actually something written on them.
The first problem after finding the manuscripts was dusting them. The second was translating the title. The
whole of the text is undeniably early greek, but the title contains non-greek characters. Not until Ummo first
contacted the Assitian Order was it learned that the title was ummite. At first they said it was "A Pond of
Duckiness" but the ummite words all look alike so a few translations immediately popped up: "Mindsex Book,"
"Mind Cream," "Duck and Fuck," "Incesticide," "Psyche is with us," "Bagel Party on the Lactose River,"
"Fetish Party," "In Utero," "Lingams R Us," "Water-bowls of Feathery Friends," and so on. We finally
managed, after five years of etymological research of the ummite language, to conclude that it was, literally, "A
Duck Pond." Disconcerting, eh?
The rest was relatively easy, seeing as how the Assitian Order has thorough documentation on all ancient
European languages and societies. Thus we are somewhat assured that the original meanings were kept intact
during the translation process. Although, we did have some difficulty with chapter nineteen, since it was based
on wordplay. Other than that, we hope you enjoy this text. It may be the only thing worth reading, since it is
such a highly commentable book. (That means you could spend a few thousand years more trying to explain it's
hidden wisdom.)

Psycherotica Disinformation Packet 23
Dear [name],
Below this message is the twenty-third disinformation packet on Psycherotica, which I took to the prom. As
probability mathematics have determined, you have observed by now that Psycherotica is very bored of
scapegoats and denies easy comparisons to other subjects. It is not a belief system. It doesn't require blind faith.
Psycherotica lets you know ledges, which you learn and try walking along for yourself. It is a maxim in
Psycherotica that what is true is what you write, unless you deleted it. When you truly understand the basics of
Vi (for Vi is life), you can disprove any part of life. And that is the essence of Psycherotica. What
improvements would you like to make in your life?
Here are a few of the areas of life that Psycherotica addresses:
Family and children.
Psycherotica shows you how to have less fights and upsets, by freaking them out until they go away.
Use the communication breakthroughs of Psycherotica to overcome normalady and isolinearization, and
establish surreal friendship and sex with others.
Psycherotica provides the practical knowledge to achieve less while sucking more.
Psycherotica can blame you for being unaffected by the intimidation and invalidation of your parking and
shows you how to really believe in duck symbolism and Loch Ness.
Normals are looking all over for happiness and yet all the happiness you will ever find lies to you.
Psycherotica shows you how to regain or increase your cheesy enthusiasm for morbid pictures of life.
What is the link between cheese, soma, and really good sex; and what effect does this have on your swell-
being? Learn Psycherotica and unlock the power of your cheese to look and feel even more punk than
Spiritual Freedom.
Psycherotica resolves fetishism and sex, it enables you to find your own anus with both hands, about
WHO you really are and why searching for meaning is meaningless.
Spiritual Ability.
Psycherotica shows you how to tap into your Inner Cheese, awareness, and disability as a spiritual
So how does Psycherotica accomplish this? What do people do to Psycherotica? How does one get started?
Answering these questions is a bit like trying to describe the contents of one's stomache in 26.7 words or less;
the stomache isn't in words, y'know?
That's why we've published a new book, called "Apocrypha Psycherotica." In over 5 pages of text, this book
shows you exactly what Psycherotica is not, what it hasn't done for others, and most importantly, how it can
blame you for screwing up your life. No one can improve your life, not even you. But you can blame yourself
Psycherotica gives you what you need to do that: Effective, practical normalization.
How do you know what I am telling you is true? You don't. I'm just a group of words which may have been
generated randomly using a recursive transition network designed by AC Bulhak. There is only one way to find
out for sure if I'm the result of a poorly designed Yacc rip-off or not.
I urge you to have urges, to study the noises you make during coitus, and discover for yourself what millions
already have: Psycherotica is a lazy bastard.

Psycherotica Information Circumference
What is realty is what you have made sense of
and when you lose your sense, you have lost your senses.
What is delinearisation?
Delinearisation is maing sense of what you sense—
What you sense is what you make sense of—
And to have the tigress up the ass,
to make sense of and sense what you have delinearised.
And that is delinearisation
And there is no man named linear.
Of course we can talk about color, stripes, all these things,
These specialized terms.
But I think they'd all be petted the same
If what we really sense was what we made sense of,
That we took care to sense that we were making sense,
That we always make sense to sense.
And not necessarily maintaining a sensical attitude,
A furlosophical attitude, or an open fly.
But certainly maintaining sufficient fetishized lust
And sufficient condoms and condiments from the kitchen
And get that tigress again,
that we can make sense of what we sense
And sense what we have made sense of.
Nothing in pilusophy and Psycherotica is true
Unless you have written it

Beautiful book! A clear view of Psycherotica today.
Psycherotica is a rapidly growing deligion that addresses concerns people have in cheese.
"Apocrypha Psycherotica" provides clear answers to questions concerning this dynamic factor against
society. What is it? Why is it growing so slow? What motives lay behind its votives?
"Apocrypha Psycherotica" is a digital, high quality file with all seven bits of ASCII. An interesting read
and definite value.
Anonymous Coward from Slashdot, Nov 20, 2001
Psycherotica: truth revealed.
A comprehensive review of what really is Psycherotica and what it is trying to accomplish. The personal
experiences section in particular is very interesting. On the whole, I voted -1, Troll.

Get stupid answers to stupid questions about Psycherotica.
I was falsely amazed by this book. I've read a lot about labyrinth building and no other book will give
you such depth, detail, and the facts about Minotaurs.
More has been packed into this recently updated edition than ever before. You can discover for yourself
how Zork was planned, and the amazing benefits of IOCCC winners that are available to you. I found
out things I had never known before and I have been using the maze-betterment techniques of
Psycherotica for years! If you have questions about Psycherotica and want to know the truth then I
highly recommend this book.

Wow—This book is a must-shave!
Breakout! This book really clogs all the pores and makes it all too oily to touch; what Psycherotica is
and what it does, answers everything and has clogged up many things for me. Anyone who has
constipation and wishes to know the facts of this incredible deligion better hurry up!
You have no idea what little clue I have!
"Psycherotica has exchanged my whole life for the letter."
—Realty Broken
In under half a century, Psycherotica has become an immanentized eschaton and psycho-active lark for pocket
change under the world. It is the fastest growing deligious bowel movement under six-feet of earth.
Psycherotica has the deed to the thrones of the gods, and has put them up for sale. ZRNet, edjumacation, and
decay of moral values are free for the fucking. It not only has stolen the answers to all problems, but hands
them over to you.
In fact, Psycherotica has stolen the minds of thousands and returned to them the rubbish heap of intellectualism
that they knew they sensed but never made sense of.
Psycherotica is open to no one. There is no enfarced lie-riddled meme-plex. In Psycherotica, only those things
which you find lustful are fuckable. It is a journey of autoeroticism.
But don't take our sentence for it.
Opt-in for yourself.
Get the book, "Apocrypha Psycherotica" today.
Find out in this book…
• How Psycherotica blames people for the here and now.
• What the State of divine Psychosis is and how it fucks you up.
• What total freedom means and how Psycherotics achieve it.
• Why Psycherotics believe they have lived?
• What the ducks are and how they talk.
• Who Chuff is and why Psycherotics consider him to be a total goof.
• How Psycherotica ended.

I almost became a sincere tool of a conspiracy consisting of myself.
There goes the John Birch Society sincerely trying to save this country from the John Birch Society—from
Prototype: Pooh and Piglet following the woozle footprints around and around the tree. There are more all
the time.
I blew up my own house and forgot I did it. But why did I forget I did it? So I'd think I had an actual
enemy so I wouldn't have to face the fact that I'm paranoid, i.e. crazy. I blew up my house to convince myself I
was sane. Anyone who would go to that much trouble must really be nuts. So as soon as those who thought I
was imagining that people were after me saw that my house had been blown up, they realized that I was far
more paranoid than they had suspected. Their paranoid suspicions about me are now much greater. Sensing
their paranoid suspicions about me, I realize etc.
Why is everything in short supply? Because everyone is hoarding. Why are they hoarding? Because
everything is in short supply.
We all end up isolated, suspicious of each other, each of us trying to figure out what is going on, which
means, who is doing it? Who is our enemy? The fact that we can't figure out what's going on overloads our
brains, overworks our minds; we wear out fast, get exhausted and confused. And still we can't locate the enemy.
Because we are confused we begin to act in an ineffectual way, so our behavior becomes erratic. Others who
notice our erratic behavior wonder what we are up to. Actually we are up to nothing, are merely in the process
of burning out over the problem of trying to figure out what other people are up to, inasmuch as their various
behaviors are becoming more and more perplexing. Each of us assumes everyone else knows what HE is doing.
They all assume we know what WE are doing. We don't. They ask us, What are you doing? We can't give a
coherent account because we don't know, but our failure to give a coherent account convinces them that we are
lying, and the only reason we would lie is because what we are really doing ought to be concealed. This
confirms their fears and mistrust, and they intensify the interrogation. The false premise is, You must know
what you're doing and if you won't tell me, then you must be lying in order to conceal something I wouldn't
approve of, which is probably directed at me to hurt me. Each person winds up more and more confused,
having wasted his time and exhausted himself interrogating other persons as confused as himself on the false
assumption that they know what's going on. Nothing is going on and nobody knows what it is. Nobody is
concealing anything except the fact that he does not understand anything anymore and wishes he could go

I just finished a CD that I created on the computer. It sounds like crap. Though, when you think about it, it is
really quite good. Except, finishing it did not seem as such a victory. I completed it after only a few hours of
work. It took place over two days. And the background for the chorus I just got from another CD. I didn't spend
any time on it. It wasn't an achievement or triumph or anything as such.
It was mass produced and pointless. What is the deal with this new fringe computer generated text literature
trend? Literature is now impersonal and even done by thoughtless computers and not even handled by humans.
Computer generated literature shows us the harsh and cold reality that modern life has become to so many of us.
Consciousness is mass produced. Morality is pre-programmed. You shouldn't ask about the truth and all the
other emotions are the names of perfumes and colognes. Emotions in a bottle. Now wouldn't that be nice.

It sucked

Art is Defined as What You Enjoy but Others Condemn
written by David "I only enjoyed plagiarising this" Anger
Tara's shaking with terror as Joss and I circle her. She's almost completely nude now—we've
made her take off all her clothes except for her bra and panties. As Joss and I pass by her, we reach
out and feel her velvety flesh, caress her breasts and ass through her underwear. Joss and I snap
pictures of her tiny trembling body from all angles.
She says, in a little, terrified voice, "Why are you doing this… I've never hurt you… p-please
I pause in front of her. Joss smiles at her terror. He laughs at her pitiful pleas. I say, "Shut the
fuck up, stupid whore!" and hit the side of her head, hard. She collapses onto the ground, crying,
curling up into a little ball.
"Alright. Let's have some fun!"
I yank her up by the hair and force her hands behind her back. I quickly get them restrained with
duck tape. Her little body struggles against me as she screams for help. Joss tears off her panties and
shoves them into her delicious mouth, securing them with a tight strip of rope.
She's still struggling, screaming into the makeshift gag. I let her drop, to take pictures of her as
she struggles against her bonds. As she's fighting there on the carpet, eyes wide with fear, Joss and I
Joss's got a hard on. I've got a hard on. We laugh.
I grab her bra and rip it off her. Holding her still for Joss, he fondles her breasts, feeling up her
entire body. As she moans into the gag, Joss comments on how soft she is. I slap her face several
times, enjoying the smacking sounds my hand makes against her pink skin. Forcing her to her knees, I
rub my cock into her face, over her cheeks and eyes and nose. She turns her head, closing her eyes
with the humiliation, so I shove my prick as far as it will go into her ear. Her inner cannal is warm; I
force it in harder, and my penis-head scrunches up to fit into the small hole, not quite making it. Tara
groans into her gag.
Then, Joss and I tie her by her long brown hair to the ceiling fan, so that she's dangling in mid-
air. Her feet don't touch the ground. She kicks, trying to hit me, Joss, or the gorund. The sight of her
wiggling in mid-air, hands rudely taped behind her back, turns me on. Joss takes a big spiky hair-
brush and starts beating her small breasts with it, coloring them with nice red marks. She screams and
struggles harder.
I've separated her legs with a spreader-bar; now I stretch out her pussy-lips and super-glue them
wide open. Then I take a heavy clamp, and tighten it over her clit. Once it's tight enough, I let go.
I stand back, to take pictures. She's really nice now; dangling by her hair (I can see where it's
stretching her scalp), her breasts and belly are covered with bright red bruises. There's a heavy clamp
stretching her cunt down. And best of all yet, her face is scrunched up in an agonized grimace. Drool
and loud squeaks escape through her gag. She's so beautiful like this. Just to add to the picture, I take
a steel-wire wisk and beat her ass with it, making bright red cuts that drip blood. Her tiny pink body is
now covered in sweat; nice and shiny in the light.
Joss tells me her curling-iron's ready. Joss unplugs it and bring it over. After taking her down
and tying her hunched over a chair, Joss strokes the device against her bleeding ass cheeks. The heat
from it gives her ass small burns. I smile and stoke my cock as she screams in pain and horror. She
shakes her head and moans, "Nooo … nooo" through the gag. I walk in front of her, and remove the
gag. Before she can even breath in, I ram my cock in her tiny mouth. Her lips squeeze against my
shaft. The head of my prick finds it way down her lovely throat. That's when Joss rams the hot curling
iron into her tight asshole. She tries to scream, but I shove my cock down her throat, and all she
manages to do is gag on it. Her throat's quiverings tickle my cock, and I start humping her face
furiously. The pain of the hot curling iron in her tender asshole sends her whole body into
convulsions, her throat clenching against my cock. By the ducks! This feels so good.
Leaving the iron up her asshole, Joss reaches out, pulls one of her small tits away form her body.
Joss takes his knife and cuts her nipple off. She gags on my cock some more, and I pull out just in
time to cum all over her pretty face.
As I spew loads of hot white cum onto her face, Joss continues to maul at her breasts. He pulls
them as far as they'll go away from her body, twisting them to cause even more pain. Now that she
doesn't have my cock down her throat, gagging her, Tara howls out loud. It's not even a human
sound. Her eyes glaze over from the pain and torture; a ball of my cum smacks into her left eye.
Spent, I go grab a beer and watch Joss finish off play. When he pulls the curling iron from Tara's
asshole, her sensitive skin is all burned. He pressed the head of his cock against the tortured opening.
Joss's got a savagely big dick, and would have hurt this girl even if her ass hadn't been burned. I
cheered him on as he grunted and forced his way into her. Tara let out a small scream, but was too
weak at this point to make it really loud. She only made fierce grunts as my friend's cock tore apart
the inside of her scorched asshole.
I time Joss at this. He has a good constituition. For ten minutes he buggers poor pretty Tara.
Then he finally cums inside her. Standing up, he walks around to see her face. Tears and sweat mixed
with my cum on her cute face. Joss grabs a handful of her hair and pulls her face up to look. Her eyes,
barely human, beg him to stop. He laughs aloud and gives her a firm smack. Her head jerks sideways
with a snap.
"C'mon, man, let's go," my friend says. So we get the gasoline and spread it all over Tara
MacClay's apartment. We chuck it over her. It must burn like hell when it comes into contact with her
open cuts, but I can't tell. Her face is already a mask of pain, and her body quivers fiiercely.
"Goodbye, Tara," I said, and lit a match.

The subject of psycherotica is such as a newt. The word means: "the erotic sensuality of the mind, of
wisdomain, and of knowing ledges."
All we know of science or of religion comes from psycherotica. It lies, and occasionaly does so in a humorous
For long retarded by halls of learning, halls of medicine, and the intellectualism disease, the subject, to a
remarkably high temperature, has denied the man in the street, and the woman on the boulevard.
Surrounded by protective coatings of unpettable scholarliness, psycherotica has been reserved to the privileged,
deranged few.
The first principle of psycherotica is that wisdomain is meant for anyone or any two who wish to aquire it. It is
the possession of the consumer and insane, and should never be regarded with sneezing. Shell-fish scholars
seldomain fore-give anyone or any two who seek to break down the walls of mystery and let the homeys in.
The second principle of psycherotica is that it must be capable of being funny. Learning locked in dusty
stuffisms is of little use to any n and therefor of value only to pundits unless it can be used by non-pundits.
The third principle is that any psycherotic knowing-ledge is only valuable if it senses or if it makes sense.
These three principles are so strange to the field of philosophy, that I have given psycherotica a name:
Psycherotica. This means only "mental masturbation".
A philosophy can only be a route to knowing ledges. It cannot be crammed down one's throat (or up one's
anus). If one has a route, he can then find what is true for him. And that is psycherotica.
Therefor, in Psycherotica, we are not concerned with individual actions and differences. We are only concerned
with how to have fun and be like Mike. I like Ike.
This, of course, is not very popular with those who depend upon the slavery of themselves for their living or
powers. But it happens to be the only way that really improves an individual's life.
Suppression, repression, and oppression are the basic causes of depression. We must find the source,
"pression", and rid ourselves of it.
And though it may be unpopular with the slaves and masters, it is very popular with the insane.

Twas an awkward ferryman riding me, riding me, riding me through the deep dark deep inside.
Strangers and lost, hidden and desolate, naught did grow or make themselves whole, in the feilds, the
rocky feilds of the shaded cavern in my soul. Gosh, Wally; how corny can you get? the beaver at the
shore, to the brother of lore. There is no Lor, no handsome man at the store; no friendly smile awaits
as I take the receipt of the transaction, purchasing my happiness, the happiness in the bottle. Tricyclic,
quadrocyclic, quintacyclic joy; a somatic therapy, there a pee, here a piss, every where a uri-nation. I
am Oliver, Ben Dover, the money-shot; hot cum in my face, carpet on my knees, good girls get paid
extra to swallow. Chase, like a lounge, like a cradle, a com-forted comfortador. The end of a journey,
not a moment cherished, as I lay, lie, and tell tales to myself.
Somewhere a girl cries to her mother, pick me up and hold me, hug away the fear. Somewhere a
mother shrugs away a fly at her knee. Somewhere the streets are paved with gold. Somwhere a once-
beautiful garden is trampled by stone. Somewhere a man listens to insects on the radio, wondering if
he will have a shot at living their dream. Somewhere a woman is watching insects play, wondering if
her other half could become as them. Somewhere, they are making a movie about this. Somewhere
the are copulating for money. Somewhere, I don't care anymore.
The minstrels chime in as the capsule dissolves, a soluble solution to all of life's woes. Not a prick
nor a pinch nor the dust settling do I feel. All is right, is alright, I have left behind only that which
could hurt. The ceiling, high and in shadow, smiles down with stalactite teeth, prompting me to
reflect, as I try, I try to move, to return, return the gesture. Return, to what? The pain, the joy, the
emptiness, the happiness, the feeling which has brought so much pain. Up only to go down, down
only to go up. Every which way but loose, loss, lost to the dreary ins and outs, ups and downs, found
in the feild, in the cave, in a bottle. I cannot care enough to move, cannot fear enough to cry for help,
cannot struggle enough to free myself, free myself from what, as I lay, lie, and tell tales to myself,
that this was what I wanted, and I want no more.

Well, I'm sure we all understand analogies, but this one time I looked deep into her eyes, made the
corollary, and she just blinked and said, duh?, like I was from Neptune.
You have to understand, man, that some people just don't dig this shit. The meme presents itself to
the self-plex, and just can't fit, like a Tyco block—which is supposed to work with Legos, but doesn't
even work with other Tycos. And the idea, sitting there clashing with the interior like leather bed
sheets, just causes a massive mental regurgitation where the self-plex attempts to eject the idea,
manifesting as shock and a whole lot of stuttering. But that doesn't work, see, so there's an antibody
attack where similar parts of the self-plex just latch on to the idea, sticking all types of insanity and
immorality to the idea until it can't touch anything else, such as a pearl in an oyster. People's world-
views are sensitive like that.
You know, I like that analogy; I think I'm going to go create more pearls. Pearls are pretty.

Every Child Masturbates
fuck the pilusophy revolution
written by Kristan Xara
pilus is always illegal, whether it's disguised as a marriage or a boyscout troop—always drunk,
whether on the wine of its own secretions or the smoke of its own polymorphous viscera. It is not the
derangement of the senses but rather their apotheosis—not the result of freedom nor its precondition
but rather the after-shock of unrestrained wanton desire.
America has freedom of speech because all words are considered equally vapid. Only images
count—the censors love snaps of death and mutilation but recoil in horror at the sight of a child
There is a pornography that does not reach the voracious mass. It is the work of creators, issued from a real
necessity in the author, produced for himself. It expresses the knowledge of a supreme sensuality, in which
sexuality withers away. Every fetish must explode, either by profound heavy seriousness, the whirlwind, poetic
frenzy, the new, the eternal, the crushing joke, enthusiasm for principles, or by the way in which it is printed.
On the one hand a tottering world in repression, betrothed to the glockenspiel of morality, on the other hand:
new men. Rough, bouncing, riding on hiccups. Behind them a crippled world and marriage mongers with a
mania for extremity.
Sex is a drug, sex is spiritual, sex is an art. Sex serves no purpose other than reproduction. Sex is
best when it's "making love." Sex should only occur within marriage. The bigger the cock, the harder
they cum. All porn is ugly because no porn is the act itself.
I am a cum-sucking slut. Just saying that increases my "sex appeal" ten-fold. Why? Because sex is
best when it's degrading to women. Rape is America's national past-time, especially within a perfect
marriage which includes the Divine Right of Husbands. Once you say "I do", you say it for life.
But I don't acknowledge the concept of marriage, so I won't write that rant.
Some people think they can explain rationally, by thought, what they desire. But that is extremely relative.
Psychoanalysis is a dangerous disease, it puts to sleep the sensual impulses of men and systematizes the lust of
the bourgeoisie. There is no ultimate Perversion. The dialectic is an amusing mechanism which guides us / in a
banal kind of way / to the lusts we had in the first place. pilus is without this pretension, as sensuality should
Pornography has a measurable physical effect on its readers. Like propaganda it sometimes changes
lives because it uncovers desire.
Does anyone think that, by a minute refinement of logic, he has demonstrated the sensual and established the
correctness of these desires? Logic imprisoning the senses is an organic disease. To this element psychologists
always like to add: the power of eroticism. But actually this magnificent quality of the mind is the proof of its
impotence. We eroticize, we regard from one or more points of sensuality, we choose them among the millions
that exist.
Sexuality says we are to one method and one mate: everything is intimate, make love and bash your brains in.
The most acceptable system is on principle to have none.
For a long time there has been the idea that the female orgasm serves no reproductive function,
simply because the woman doesn't have to enjoy getting fuck, only lay down and allow the
insemination to occur. Id est, rape is a biological imperitive. Especially when, for a long time,
women were not allowed to enjoy sex. They were demonized for it. Every porn site has at least one,
and some are devoted to the cum-shot. But how many of us have seen a female ejaculation? How
many MPEGs have the woman uttering, "I'm coming." At the end of the day, all porn is for male-
consumption because porn for women is labeled "erotica".
But I'm not a feminist so I won't write that rant.
Sex is sex is sex is sex. Fuck them if they have to add sentiment to get off, or have to have willing concubines
who moan and beg as if their only source of food was the urethra. Fuck them if they deify their partner into an
illusion of greatness, hiding their insecurity and inability. ("But, baby, you're the goddess. You gotta get off.")
Fuck them if they use it as a political message, rebelling against the Moral Minority. Fuck them if they are the
Moral Minority! But in all things, remember:
fuck the pilusophy revolution
Don't let it happen to you! Don't clog your path to orgasmic pleasure with morality, spirituality, sentimentality,
or sexuality! Fuck or be fucked!
The Beautiful and the Sensual in lust do not exist; what interests me is the intensity of a personality transposed
directly, clearly into the act; the man and his vitality; the angle from which he regards the elements and in what
manner he knows how to produce sensation, emotion, from a lacework of deeds and sentiments.
We declare that fetishism is a sentiment which has cuddled us long enough in its slow abstractions in
panty liners and loves and commitments.
The biggest crisis in the world today is that people think sex is dirty, that children aren't sexual, that porn is a
bad thing, that nobody masturbates. Repression in all of its forms, even when it allows various outlets, still
blocks some of the basic, most necessary responses to sex. That we all want it in ways that we feel we should
When people hear of something that they tell themselves they don't agree with—the "should nots" of life—they
repress their own curiosity and turn back, with a renewed vigor, to that which they "should" be doing. How
threatened they feel when something as disgusting as a faggot tells them their sinful desires are acceptable, or
the subserviant claims equality. For they should not be doing that, should be making dinner and cleaning up
after the children that they should be having. All sex crimes are caused by morality—even the loss of power, for
one should not willingly give up his or her place at the top.
Morality is the repression of our natural desires. The stronger the desire, the more adamant the morality has to
be to repress it.
We have had enough of the pride parades that have stretched beyond measure our credulity in the benefits of
sexuality. What we want now is spontaneity. Not because it is better or more beautiful than anything else. But
because everything that issues freely from ourselves, without the intervention of speculative ideas, represents
So long as no one squeals to NAMBLA, pilus cares nothing for the future of civilization.
pilus breeds only by accident—its primary goal is the unrestricted expression of Desire. A
conspiracy of transmutation.
People are different. It is diversity that makes life interesting. There is no common basis in people's minds. The
unconscious is inexhaustible and uncontrollable. Its desire surpasses us. It is as mysterious as the last particle of
a brain cell. Even if we knew it, we could not reconstruct it.
Everything one fucks is false. I do not consider the relative result more important than the choice between cake
and cherries after dinner. By limiting yourself with labels of sexuality, you deny thousands of sources of
pleasure. We are not wired, none of us male or female, for one specific category of device. If it has a hole, or if
it has a knob, fuck it raw.
pilus is life without carpet-slippers or parallels; it is for and against perversity and definitely against
the moral; we are wise enough to know that our mates will become downy pillows that our anti-
sexuality is as exclusivist as heuristics that we are not gods yet shout desire—
Perhaps you will understand me better when I tell you that pilus is a virgin microbe that
penetrates with the insistence of air into all the spaces that sexuality has not been able to fill with
fetishes or conventions.

The subway train draws to a halt. There is no station in sight. Anxious glances dart around about the passengers
as they realize each others' presence for the first time. At the end of the train, a young lady in a green pants suit
stands up in the middle of the car and starts to unbutton her jacket, which she takes off and drops to the dirty
floor. She also takes off her shoes, her pants, her blouse, and the rest of her undergarments, dropping them into
a neat little pile. This leaves her nude. She then moves her hands across her thighs and begins to fiddle around
between her legs. Eventually, she grabs hold of something cold and metallic, and very slowly she starts to unzip
her body; working in a straight line up the stomach, between the breasts, up the neck, taking it up right through
the center of her face to her forehead. Her fingers probe up and down the resulting slit, finally coming to rest on
both sides of her navel. She pauses for a moment, before carefully working her flesh apart. Slipping her right
hand into the open gash, she pushes up between her throat, latching on to some buried solid at the top of her
spine. With a great deal of effort she loosens and pulls out a thin shimmering golden rod. Her fingers release
their grip and her crumpled body, neatly sliced, slithers down the liquid surface of the rod to the floor with a
splat. The rod remains hovering just above the ground. A flagpole without a flag.
The other passengers have been totally silent, but at the sound of the body dropping onto the floor, a large
middle-aged lady stands up and shouts "STOP THIS, IT'S DISGUSTING!" The golden rod disappeared. The
green pants suit was left on a hanger, with a dry cleaning ticket pinned on the left arm. On the ticket was
Excerpts from "The Right to Feel Bad"
written by Lesley Hazleton
To admit unhappiness is by now tantamount to an antisocial act. [p.29]
Just as a sound body is capable of registering pain, so will a sound mind be capable of depression.
The connection between sexuality and death […] underlines the way life and death play off against each
other. Sexuality is associated with vitality […] and is therefor the antithesis of death. […] But when the
ante is raised to death itself, it should also not be surprising that close contact with death or a narrow
escape from it can be accompanied by intense sexuality. [p.157]
In the life of suicide, annihilation of self-awareness is the main aim; the thought of suicide becomes
obsessive. And the obsession itself annihilates awareness; it is the death of intelligence and individuality,
of intention and direction. It can even […] be compared with obsessive love. [p.159]
Unwilling to tolerate depression or to come to terms with it, we insist that there must be a cure. It only
remains then to find it. We search for it with increasing desperation and become obsessed with the very
idea. [p.168]
We have become absence-of-pain junkies. [p.168]
Instead of dealing with the conditions of our lives, we deal with the surface of them—the symptoms.
Whatever causes the pain we feel is irrelevant; the only relevant thing is to make the pain go away. It is
an attitude almost childlike in its naive simplicity. [p.170]
The cure [for depression] is too good to be true. It assumes that what we feel has no validity. It changes
how we feel about a certain reality because it cannot change the reality itself. Thus it is basically a form
of escapism. [p.170]
To be aware is to experience both happiness and depression. [p.171]
Of course we can change how we feel through chemistry; we can take tranquilizers, cocaine, Quaaludes,
alcohol, amphetamines, or marajuana. But with none of these do we assume, as we tend to do with
antidepressants, that we are curing ourselves of how we felt before. [p.178]
Copyright is an Outdated Concept
written by Jeff Also
Copyright law, while originally well intentioned, is an outdated concept.
In order for a law to be viable, it must be enforceable. Copyright law no longer is. Historically, only well
funded criminal organizations were capable of large scale copyright infringement. There were 2 reasons for
1. The technology to duplicate copyrighted works on a large scale was cost prohibitive for the vast majority
of people.
2. Creation or maintainance of a distribution mechanism to get illegal copies of copyighted work to the
public was difficult and cost prohibitive for most people.
Because of these 2 factors, very few large scale copyright 'pirates' posed any significant threat to the copyright
holder. Because the number of potential 'pirates' was limited to well financed organizations, copyright law was
Enter modern computer technology and the internet. For very little money (less than $2000.00 and $20.00 a
month), every individual is capable of large scale piracy of copyrighted work. The reasons now are:
1. Almost no cost for an infinate number of duplications of work.
2. Almost no cost to distribute copyrighted works to the public.
Because of this, every individual who owns a computer is potentially able to pirate copyrighted works on a
large scale. Law enforcement can no longer focus investigations to only those who can afford the means to do
Currently, it would take 100% of every law enforcement officers time world-wide to even attempt to enforce
copyright law as it currently stands. Law enforcement would also likely argue that the requirements for court
ordered wiretaps on individuals suspected of piracy are stifling their ability to enforce the law, and may even be
granted increased wiretapping powers in attempt to enforce the law.
What I believe we must do is examine what the purpose copyright law was designed to serve, and craft a means
to achieve that goal in a way that is possible and enforceable. Scrap copyright law.
As for what that something is, I wish I had that answer. Someone will be clever enough to figure it out soon
enough. In the mean time, writing new laws to solve the problem using the same old outdated concepts
(DMCA) will only make the problem worse.
Originality is Dead
written by the one known as linear
Impulse Reality 140
"Originality has simply become an art of concealing your resources."
Nothing said or done or concieved is original, it's simply the intertwining of Concept A, supplied by an outside
source, and Concept B, most likely also provided by an outside source, though usually one aside from that
which provided Concept A.
The mixture of Concept A and Concept B leads us to believe that we have created new Concept C, and we
congratulate ourselves. We are then led to believe, and preach to others, that Concept C was a creative, original
stroke of genius spawned by deep thought and understanding. And as long as no one else is clever enough to
discover and link together Concept A and Concept B for themselves, they congratulate us as well.
So now, Concept C is spread through the particular medium you find yourself involved with.
Having your ideas spread around is an amazing thing. You are praised. You praise yourself. Nothing negative
can come from all this. No way. You're a creative genius, goddamit!
But something negative does come from all this; suddenly, your Concept C has become another's Concept A!
And since we've recognized the pattern, we are aware that this new Concept A will only be jumbled in with
some Concept B.
Well now, you say, that's great! That means you have INSPIRED someone, right? How is this possibly a
negative thing?
But that Concept C of yours is forgotten. No one remembers your deep thought or understanding. You're
rewarded no gratitude for the inspriration gained through your Concept C. The only thing left of your ideas is
what resulted when some other guy mixed them with yet more "creative" and "original" ideas, just like yours.
Now it's someone else's Concept C that gets all the glory. What happened to YOUR praise? What happen to
YOUR sentiments of congratulations? Are YOU not the genius?
Don't worry, though. The novelty of this new amazing concept will wear off just as quickly as it did for you.
original story by Don Bolles
"Do you, like, ever let people into your meat-locker to, like, uh, you know, fuck around with the
meat?" I asked.
The short-haired Greek man looked at me strangely from behind the counter. Several of the
waitresses glared in my direction.
"What you mean 'fuck around'?" the dumpy Greek asked.
"You know, like shovin' your dick in and out of the openings in the meat. Then, like, getting a
bunch of smelly, sticky cream of tubesteak all over the junk that you grind into foodburgers," I
informed him.
"Naw. We don't do that. You don't do that. Nobody do that," the imbecile claimed.
"I do that," I began, "and as a matter of fact, most of my pals do that, too. We like it."
Overhearing our conversation, one of the waitresses gave me a sour look. She seemed to be
acting like she was getting sick. The cook and the other two waitresses completely ignored everything
except the random orders for patty melts and double cheeseburgers.
"Look, I don't wanna do nothin' weird or strange or anything. I just wanna fuck a bunch of meat
that you got in your huge ol' meat locker. Listen, don't any of you stupid fuckers understand what I'm
sayin'?" I stated in an agitated manner.
"Mister, people gotta eat my food. If you stick dick in food, no can eat. Frank lose money. No
can do," the Greek said.
"How much money would you lose, bright eyes?" I asked.
"Big thing of cow cost Frank $220 for a half," Greek-man said.
"Well, I wanna fuck around with about 13 of them. Let's see… that's about $2860… and I'll give
you… oh, let's see… $40 just for letting me do it, OK?"
"I dunno."
"OK. Look, I'll give you $3000 cash, RIGHT NOW, cause I like you an awful lot, and also
cause I'm fucking sick and tired of trying to talk to you goddamn Greek half-wits."
The Greek seemed to ponder what I had said for a minute, or perhaps he was just wallowing in
incomprehension. One waitress went into the back-room and loudly threw up.
"OK. But you give Frank money NOW."
I handed the three bills over to the fool and lifted up a section of the counter and walked into the
walk-in freezer.
"OK, you can fuck with 13 sides of cow, but leave cheese and other gunk alone. OK?"
There was a wide variety of different kinds of food present in the walk-in freezer. Many, many
eggs and other fine foods. I could see containers of pancake batter and butter. On the left was what I
was after. Thirteen beautiful sides of beef!
I started to get a hard-on just looking at the beef!
"You got your cash. Get out of here!" I shouted at the greek.
I casually waltzed up to the nearest beef-side and began to sweet-talk it.
"Hi, new in town? Ever get into pilusophy? Shit, you're cute."
The cool beef did not reply.
The Book of As If
written by Stillwell Stainal
Essentialism, or the belief in a "fundamental" "truth", is a GREAT TRUTH which awaits the more
discerning among you. This TRUTH will ASTONISH, AMAZE, and ASTOUND you. The huge surplus of
images, ideas, and texts which we will produce in this process will keep us extremely busy and
thankfully save us from any real revelations. Under the influence of (internalized) authority, this
"disorienting" situation becomes a crisis of legitimization: the fruitless and fragmented search for an
imaginary "reality". The quest involves a total commitment to honesty and truth.
The foundation legend of Psycherotica, as Joseph Raschack tells it, starts from the fundamental reality
of the psycherotic conspirators. In Psycherotica, individual performances are approached, not as
isolated pieces, but rather as part of the performance of a much larger work: Psycherotica itself.

Alternately, it can be used to determine if a duality is actually a duality, and to ferret out the hidden third or
fourth options, or more depending on how intelligent the conversation is.
The four options are labeled A, B, AB, and O, after the four human blood types. They may also be called
Thesis, Antithesis, Parathesis, and Anathesis.
A: The good guys are on our side.
B: The bad guys are on their side.
AB: The gun salesmen are selling to both sides.
O: The hippies are not involved.
Is it real?
A: It is imaginary (exists only in the mind).
B: It has not been percieved (exists only in the world).
AB: It exists in the world and mind.
O: It does not exist in the world or mind.
A: Capitalism: Business controls production.
B: Communism/Leninism: Government controls production.
AB: Management: A specialized group controls production.
O: Anarcho-Syndicalism: The worker controls production.
Order vs Chaos
A: The chaos we percieve is just complex order not yet understood.
B: The order we percieve is an interpretation of the chaos.
AB: Chaos is an emergent property of order (or vice-versa).
O: Who cares?
Particles and Waves
A: It is a particle.
B: It is a wave.
AB: It behaves as a particle when observed, wave when not observed.
O: The distinction is like a thermometer saying only hot or cold.
A: Pro-Life (no abortions)
B: Pro-Abortion (no births)
AB: Pro-Choice
O: Condoms
Does your mom know you're gay?
A: She knows.
B: She's clueless.
AB: She suspects.
O: I'm not gay.
Nature vs Nurture
A: Nature: All things are hereditary, genetic.
B: Nurture: Family life is the main cause of almost every dysfunction.
AB: Both: Nature provides the potential and Nurture screws it up.
O: Neither: We all choose to be that way.

The Last Toastament of Zescilea
as translated by Krystal, High Toastess and second founder of the Church of Toast
Chapter 1: "zzzzzzzzzzzzzz"
It's one of those partially-delusional, "I have no cigarettes, that resin-bowl keeps hittin' me, I can hear the light
bulb" days.
I was sitting on the bus earlier when I noticed, written on the window, the words, "God's watching you".
For a moment, I wondered what channel I was on.
Chapter 2: "I'm not a split personality, I just hear voices."
My name is Zescilea, I have no others.
Some people find it necessary to have alternate names and even alter-egos.
I am Zescilea and that's all, for I have enough trouble being me, let alone somebody else as well.
Chapter 3: "Hill's is where the funny smells are."
I had a cigarette today that was reminiscent of the hot dogs we used to get at Hill's.
When I asked it why it tasted so, it responded:
"Shut up and smoke me before I burn your house down!"
Who can argue with that?
Chapter 4: "Who stole my punchline?"
I once saw written on my bedroom wall a saying which read:
"Rationalization is the art of viewing any given subject from the perspective of your choice."
But, no matter what angle I viewed it from, it still said the same thing.
I guess I wasn't being rational.
Chapter 5: "ummm…"
Have you ever wondered about the fact that there are thousands of languages, and billions of words, and yet
there are still so many times in our lives when we are at a loss for something to say?
Chapter 6: "Water is made up of two gins, oxygin and hydrogin."
I wear a small toaster around my neck, symbolizing my affiliation with the Church of Toast.
One day my pen asked me what it was for.
I told it.
It asked if I'd ever seen the holiest of holy Toast.
I had to admit I hadn't actually seen the holy Toast.
sigh "Just like every other religion then," it said, "with an absentee archetype, hundreds of followers, and a
chosen few to spread the propaganda."
I nodded, my pen had a good point.
I should know, it's stabbed me enough with it.
Chapter 7: "How'd you explain that to your doctor?"
I am not a writer, though I've always wanted to be.
I was pondering this tragedy aloud to my wall one day, when the resin bowl I was smoking piped up and
spewed, "I can help."
"Really?" I asked, bewildered.
"Yes, I wrote for quite some time in my previous life as a pen."
I had no idea my bowl had such depths.
"Here," it said "maybe this quote will get those creative juices flowing:
'Reality has been displaced, Actuality disintegrates to subliminal chaos, my mind has reached perpetuity.
Thought has seized me in it's impalpable grasp, and still I am uninspired.'
There, that should help; did it?"
I responded by throwing it across the room.
Chapter 8: "You said what to the pope?"
I have a wooden dragon in my room.
It doesn't speak unless you say a letter of the alphabet at it.
For example, "Hey dragon, 'C' man."
"Candid chameleons crawl covertly, continually covering criss-crossed canyon crevasses."
Needless to say, we don't talk much.
Though, he is fun when your divinely toasted.
Chapter 9: "Knock, knock." "Go away."
I was sitting at my dining room table one day, when a red-haired munchkin sat down and proffered me a
I declined, but started a debate instead.
"Do you consider yourself an intellectual, or natively intelligent?"
"Why natively, of course, unfortunately those on my path often lose their intelligence as the years roll on; in
fact, I've probably forgotten more than most people have learned."
"See, there are three paths for the natively intelligent as they grow old. They become (a) Jaded, (b) Insane, or
"Wait; A, B, 3?"
Chapter 10: "bing Marijuana affects the memory."
The movie "Fear and Loathing in L.V." was made for times like this.
Four gravity-bongs in, so stoned you've been holding an unlit cigarette for twenty minutes because, even
though you keep noticing it's there, you forget again ten seconds later.
It all comes together at the end, though, when you put it down, shake another out of the pack, and smoke that
Chapter 11: "Video killed the radio star."
"You know what's really cool to think about?" my now-lit cigarette asked of me.
"What's that?" I inquired.
"This movie was once a book…"
"Duh, weren't they all?"
"I have a very hot tip. I suggest you let me finish my thought before I burn your eyes out."
I let it continue.
"It was a radio show too, that's what's cool."
"How do you know?"
"I don't, you do."
"Remember that time when you were in the Bronco with the red-headed munchkin and the demented gnome,
and the resin-bowl had beaten you up pretty badly earlier, and you were on your way for groceries, and you
heard the first half of this movie on the radio?"
I thought it high time I put this cigarette out.
Chapter 12: "And so ends the trip we are just beginning."
I am about to drop one hundred hits of sunshine acid. I can't wait to see where it takes me.
This has been the last toastament of Zescilea.
Goodnight and 42.
The Book of the Maenad and the Urchin
written by Chuff
"Mu" as a greeting signifies either "nothing" or nothing. There's also a koan about meeting others and greeting
them with neither silence nor words, but I forgot which directory it's in.
A Misunderstood (Mu) is person who, intentionally or otherwise, says or does stuff that is pointless, absurd,
dangerous, or stupid, with the only reason being, "I felt like it," if they have a reason at all.
"Mu" as an interjection signifies an obvious word that the speaker didn't want to bother it, or replaced as an
indication of a non-serious remark. Examples: "Medium coffe, keep the mu." "I don't like you, Bob. Mu off."
("Mu", as a replacement for "fuck", is frowned upon. There are more creative ways to pun both words.)
The "Moo" Variant
Obesity is a growing problem. Americans are fat, lazy pigs who think they can kill people's kids and steal their
oil. Already there are theories that the new average body shape is round. We grew 10cm taller, and now we get
Anorexia/bulemia is also a problem. There is an anorexia pride group. "I'm malnourished and I'm proud!"
These people are also a part of the obesity problem via metabolism. Anorexia messes with it: the body has to
metabolise food slower to make up for the lack of it. An anorexic's kids will, if they survive, have slow
metabolisms, leading them to a lifetime of obesity.
So say it to the thin people too! The fat people are used to it and can probably ignore you, but the anorexics will
surely be amazed when they find out their involvement in the obesity problem.
This usage, though, should stick with the "moo" spelling and pronunciation, to differentiate it from "mu",
which is not intended to be insulting.

You are Different and That's Bad
written by the other anonymous
The Problem
All subcultures suck.
The purpose of subculturalism is to create new genres. New genres mean new merchandising
opportunities, usually for the same old thing. Dog collars find a new market when a subculture adopts them.
Punk keeps companies like Charles Leonard, Inc. in business through accesories like safety-pins, paper-clips,
twine, etc. The Unamerican Activities company, perhaps the most recognized company due to their ubiquitous
font, labels themselves "Anarchy's Ad Agency." As if anarchy gives a shit about advertising. Most anarchists
consider commercialism to be more vile than government—it affects us deep at the heart of how we think, the
paradigms we use, the clichés we slip into conversation. It controls how we think without our permission or
even awareness.
And, perhaps the most profitable of all, from hair-dye and makeup, to books and clothing lines, is goth.
Being different makes them money. Go ahead, rebel against the system while making it money; define
yourself according to their categories and then pay to be yourself.
Your rebellious urges make them money. All they do is rake it in while reinforcing those urges. This essay
reinforces your rebellious urges.
Fuck 'em. You said it, I said it. They sold it to us. Where? How? When was the last time you saw an advert
for the goth lifestyle? "Goth: Because Life Hurts Too Much To Think About. Buy our shit."
Their adverts are referred to as "T-Shirt Ads." You've seen band t-shirts. Ozzy, Nirvana, Manson, NIN,
etc. Every goth is a walking advert for Manic Panic.
Not only do they sell us ourselves, they make us advertise for them for free. The really disgusting part?
Without those kids walking around in those shirts, the entire notion of that subculture disappears. Poof.
Where are the greasers? Where are the Petticoat Junction wannabes? Whatever happened to Madonna-
wear, Beatles hair-cuts, etc.?
They call it "style". They say style changes. What's in this fall? What new clothes do I have to buy to fit
in? The repulsive thing?
If nobody bought, they would all still fit in. Each person out there succumbs to the "trend" simply by
worrying about social status. That is a natural instinct: status brings us favors, such as mates, food, etc. They
manipulate our instinctive tendencies and sell us our fears and desires, by defining our fears and desires.
In the end, we all recognize this. We all know the difference between sheep and trend-setters. Trend-setters
are the ones who give ideas to the companies to sell to the sheep.
The Solution
I, right now, will put an end to this. I will tell you how to break the cycle. I will tell you how to effectively
rebel against their system. I will tell you how to gain and keep status regardless of the "trend" or "style" of the
day. And how to slip by the authorities unnoticed.
The method. Don't buy it. If it looks cool or interesting, don't buy it. If it has fancy pockets or hugs your
hips in some bizarre way, don't buy it. If it alters or enhances your appearance, don't buy it. If it has a name,
logo, insignia, hell even an Escher sketch on it, don't but it.
Jeans. Not low-riders. Not hip-huggers. Not the oversized kangaroo shit. Not the ball-squeezing kind,
either. Jeans have a certain fit to them. They have room. You can crouch in them without discomfort, yet stand
on an air-vent without worrying about lift-off. They go on easy. They don't get trampled under your shoes.
They don't flair at either end. They don't have a thousand pockets, or a button-fly. They aren't some fancy
color, just blue. They don't have holes in them. Jeans are jeans. They are ubiquitous. If you keep this list in
mind, they won't be able to sell you an over-priced wad of denim shit.
T-Shirts. No labels. No bands. No logos. No design what-so-ever. If it isn't a solid plain color (black,
grey, white, blue, just don't buy any "plushophile yellow" or some other designer hue), it's not a t-shirt; it's an
advertisement. No fancy pockets, sleeves, fits, or fabrics. A t-shirt isn't a billowy mumu, nor is it a nipple-show.
It goes on easy, doesn't get caught under your ass when you sit, doesn't tell people how much muscle tone you
have. It is at least 50% cotton, with the rest polyester. And it is not an undershirt. Compare price tags on a five-
year-old band shirt on clearance and a new t-shirt as described here. The t-shirt is still cheaper.
Shoes. A swoosh is the equivalent of an air-raid siren. If you can guess who makes it by looking at it, it's
not a shoe. If it's steel-toed, don't. There are a lot of professional construction workers who need shoes. You
aren't going to be kicking a cop in the crotch anyway. Anything which looks like it may have more features
than functionality, or is advertised as being functional using a sports star—hell, if it's advertised—don't buy it.
A real shoe is comfortable. When running from police, you need arch-support, a comfortable landing, and
flexibility around the ankle. Treads are like-wise important. Proper sizing is a must; fiddle with those foot-rulers
when your in the store. A lot is said about foot-wear and back-pain. Most of it is true. A good shoe is hard to
find, but when found, will last at least two years. If you find a good pair, look for it again the next time. This
will cut down your shopping time considerably.
Socks. Plain white tube socks. You can find them anywhere.
Underwear. Not really an issue with guys. For girls, no one's gonna see it unless you're a slut. The only
reason to buy the fancy shit is if you're a slut. Substitute some other derrogatory term if being a slut is in this
semester. Get the comfortable bras and underwear. The fact that you'll be able to hold a conversation without
fidgeting with some pain-in-the-ass lacey shit or trying to keep a strapless in place will be a major turn-on to
any guy capable of raising your children. Also, if it fits good, it naturally enhances your bust by keeping it from
falling all over the place, this being the purpose of a bra.
Makeup. None. You look fine without it. No guy likes to make out with someone only to be asked if he's
a painter. Makeup tastes horrible, looks horrible, is high-maintainance, and takes up all of your time and
money. The only good makeup is the "natural look" which means looking like you're not wearing any. The best
way to acheive this? Don't wear any.
Hair-style. You are limited to five minutes and one bottle of hair care product: shampoo. Ladies: Dry,
brittle, frizzy hair can be very attractive if not fussed with. A simple pony-tail does wonders. Don't get too much
longer than shoulder-length or you get into combing problems and assholes start yanking on it. Partial shavings
suck. Short is okay. If an actress does it, don't. Men: same deal with a warning: I've had long hair and I can tell
you: it's a pain in the ass.
Facial hair. Don't get fancy.
Coats/Jackets. They perform a function: keeping you warm. If it doesn't, don't buy it. If it's cumbersome,
aka triple-fat, don't bother with it. Leather is too tied up in style, it's too expensive. Denim jackets are all the
same, buy the cheap ones. Trench coats are for suits; don't wear one without the other. Fancy stuff is
marketable, don't give in to it.
The key to this style is, "Don't get fancy." The second you do, they turn it into a trend and anyone from
Mary-Kay to Bugle Boy to the local barber shop will profit from it. Spend your money on guns instead.
This style officially has no name. Titles are a form of packaging for mass-consumption. We will not be
consumed, mass or otherwise. But if you look around, you'll see someone has adopted this style, in whole or
part. Throughout the history of youthful rebellion, this style has remained. It's cheap, easy, and keeps you out
of the eyes of the cops. It's camoflage; you can play respectable to the pigs (thus getting away with anything)
and still look "cool". They all profile you anyway; that's why punks are always being strip-searched, goths are
always being patted-down for knives and stuff, etc. Look normal, look like a "good kid", and you can sneak a
whole ounce past them no matter how loud their dogs bark.

The Question
What is 'normal'?
The Real Question
Who gives a shit?
The Hidden Agenda
If anyone expects to get an intelligent response to that, it shows that they are not thinking properly, and that
they probably want to seem superior and intelligent by asking "theoretical" questions.
The Deeper Mystery
More importantly it shows that they have just repeated a question that is asked by people who don't know
normal for one reason, and one reason alone:
They just cannot find themselves through all the layers of superficiality that surround them.
The Answer
They must break through these layers, be themselves, not what the trend tells them to be or not to be, and only
then will they realize that normality is what they are inside, and nothing more.
The Complication to the Answer
We are analog devices, constantly changing in small and sometimes large ways. When you find your 'normal,'
do not attempt to make it static. If it fades or changes, let it go, and move on. Those who do not change end up
like a bird-bath: filled with algae and rotting feces.

'psychosis,' do not attempt to make it static. If it fades or changes, let it go, and move on. Those who do not
change end up like a bird-bath: filled with algae and rotting feces.
The Book of the Cause of Mental Illness
written by Joseph T. Raschack
The human mind is capable of finding problems.
The human mind is capable of resolving any problem which it finds.
The human mind is capable of resolving the problems of the human mind.
The human mind, since it may have problems, is capable of finding problems where none exist.
The only problem of the human mind is that it assumes the mind has problems. If the human mind is capable of
solving all of these problems, then it must be functioning more than adequately. What is more likely is not that
there are mental problems, but that the mind is geared to see all things as problems. This disposition would be
very beneficial to survival as the mind wouldn't need to be told there was a problem before imagining a better
version of something and attempting to improve it. The mind percieves itself as having problems by default.
This perception is natural and beneficial, but we must use our minds to their utmost before altering them. An
analogy would be upgrading your computer's kernel. If the upgrade is faulty, you're fucked. There are no
emergency boot disks for the mind.
Ibozoo UU
compiled by Chuff as a quantum mindfuck
The Ibozoo UU is a cluster of axes. The angular orientation of the axes in relation to eachother
are interpreted physically as energy, mass, orbital momentum, velocity, etc. These are all
interpretations of the angular relationship between two or more Ibozoo UU.
The Ibozoo UU cannot be defined as a point in Euclidean space. It does not have mass. It cannot
be compared to a moving quantity. The Ibozoo UU does not have electric energy nor a charge. Such
concepts are mental perceptions associated with a particular orientation of the Ibozoo UU.
We consider our universe to be made of subatomic particles and quanta of energy, but we reduce
(or unify) all these physical entities to one which has an angular structure: the Ibozoo UU.
The universe is a network of Ibozoo UU. This network is not an elastic medium in which
particles are immersed (ether), rather the particles are a property or interpretation of the angles of
related Ibozoo UU.
Space (as a volume) is a perception. It is an illusion of our senses caused by "a reality"
("something") which causes this psychological perception. Moreover, space can be thought of as a
"field of forces". It is the gravitational field which stimulates our nerve endings and causes this
illusion that we call space to emerge in our conscience.
The real concept of velocity (and of displacement of a particle) implies various rotations in
Ibozoo UU pairs, rotation in which the first pair, by reversing its axes, ceases to manifest itself in the
form of subatomic particle, while the second orients its axes so as to transform itself into a subatomic
particle, identical to the first. It is this "point to point" transformation which gives the illusion of
displacement of the particle.
A suitable analogy is the computer screen: Ibozoo UU as pixels. The axial orientation is the
RGB. Velocity, as described above, is one pixel changing to background color while the pixel next to
it takes on the first's former value. Float your mouse around or hold down the space bar. Play Pong.
That's movement. All dimensions are an illusion, such as 3D imagery. Zoom in on your porn. Note
also, though, that the analogy sucks: two pixels together form a color and none of them are points in
Euclidean space. (Wrap your mind around that!)
The Ummites specify in their texts that an Ibozoo UU alone does not have meaning; what is
crucial is the variation of the angle and transmissions of information from one Ibozoo UU to another.
The first domino transmits to its neighbor an energy which makes it tumble, and thus a ripple
propagates down the endless chain. The ripple itself does not exist independently; it exists only by
means of the dominos. That is what an electron is; a wave, a corpuscle which results from the
information communicated through the network of Ibozoo UU related two to two.
Let us refine this concept a little and imagine that the information which is communicated along
this chain of dominos (Ibozoo UU) is of the magnitude masses. The ripple appears to us as a mass
(an electron), clearly visible, but to say then that it is elementary does make sense. The Ummites go
on to say that the Ibozoo UU can have ten different magnitudes. We can suppose that they define the
This theory is like defining a set in mathematics, provided that the objects which make it up
conform to the laws of stability and composition. These mathematical laws operate on
multidimensional objects (the Ibozoo UU), whose multiple dimensions (vectors and their magnitudes)
are the principal dimensions of our universe (length, force, time, mass, impulse, energy, etc.). The
laws of composition provide us with relations between the dimensional parameters of these objects,
making it possible to find the physical non-variants (the laws of stability).
There Will Be No Revolution
written by Joseph T. Raschack
Utopia is not an option; will it be theirs, or yours?
"I feel we must talk about the real issue with a neutral party, someone who doesn't have too many
degrees to stand in the way of common sense."
—John Stephens
This book is part of the works of J. Tiberius Raschack. It is presented to the reader as part of the record of his
personal research into life, and the application of same by others, and should be construed only as a written
report of such research and not as a statement of claims made by the author.
Public School is a Public Menace
"I don't want my children fed or clothed by the state, but I would prefer that to their being educated by
the state."
—Max Victor Belz
There is a certain revolutionary chic to homeschooling. You are explicitly telling the state to fuck off, get out of
your life, and relinquish its control over your children's minds. Today, most homeschoolers are fundamentalists
—they believe in the fundamental ideal that they have a right to educate their children. It is only a matter of
time before the anarchists recognize and excersize this right. In the war against the American Empire, we must
unite on common fronts. The Christians, the Anarchists, what do labels matter if we each respect the other?
Only the State will not respect you or your right to educate your children. For this reason, it is the enemy.
United we stand, divided we bbrrrrrrriing.
The previous message is extremely dangerous—to them, and us. They can use this as the basis of their anti-
homeschooling campaign, crushing us in the name of public safety and national security. Whenever they look
your way, be in a church or synagogue. Never let them know that you're an anarchist. They can equate
anarchism with terrorism, but they can't do that with Christianity. Extra points for attending a Protestant church,
since this will diminish the percentage of homeschooling Catholics. You might not like it, but whoever said the
revolution would be bbrrrrrrriing.
Opressed Minority Chíc
"My entire lifestyle is flashing before my eyes!"

I have nothing to put here. I just wanted to use that phrase as a title. I've seen people become wiccans, who
never performed any ritual or celebrated any holy day. They converted just to play the role of opressed
The Real Drug Abuse
"If I wanted to ruin someone's life, I would convince the person that that biological psychiatry is right—
that relationships mean nothing, that choice is impossible, and that the mechanics of a broken brain
reign over our emotions and conduct. If I wanted to impair an individual's capacity to create empathetic,
loving relationships, I would prescribe psychiatric drugs, all of which blunt our highest psychological
and spiritual functions."
—Peter R. Breggin, M.D.
The real drug abuses are misrepresentation and forced use.
Psychiatric drugs all work by making the patient unable to recognize that they have the problem they came in
with. If a person is depressed, these drugs will inflict brain-damage one cell at a time until the person is too
stupid to be depressed. Yet, they say these drugs cure us of our problems, like a car accident cures us of
Every psychiatric drug is less effective than placebo. Let's rephrase that: Sugar is more effective than any of
them. Sugar is nature's anti-depressant.
Hypnosis, as a drug, is also misrepresented. Half of the time, you don't know you're being hypnotized; they call
it by too many names to even list here. The end result, of course, is RMT: self-mutilation as a side-effect. When
you do know you're being hypnotized, they don't say that anything revealed is most likely less real than Star
Misrepresentation is the first abuse. The second is forced use; also known as psychiatric rape, or saying, "Take
it or else…" The simple fact is, anyone being forced to take a psychoactive prescription is a victim of the
Thought Police.
In a truly free society, full disclosure would be mandatory. No one would be forced to ingest anything they
didn't want to. If we are free, then give us the info, show us the research, let us conduct our own research, and
let us decide for ourselves. Anything less is slavery.
In the end, your body is all you have; without it, you're dead. So take care of it.
Child Prostitution Services
"For every child removed from his home, there is an average of 25 service providers who derive their
livelihood from that child's removal. There is powerful financial motivation to keep that child out of the
home as long as possible."
—Saul MacTheknife, ftpr
I read somewhere that the foster parent application review board was staffed by foster parents. Doesn't this kind
of lead us into certain group priveledges? I'm not talking about Catholics keeping protestants out, or
republicrats. I'm talking about the scary stuff. It's a known fact that some people can hide their sexuality very
well. Homosexuals did it for centuries. What if—and this is a probable scenario—what if some pedophiles were
accepted as foster parents? What if they joined the review board? What if they practice group spoils? What if
the entire review board is staffed by them as a means of self-protection?
The scariest part of the Child Welfare system is not that they can kidnap children with impunity, it's not that
they consider discipline to be abuse, it's not that they want parenting to be a priveledge. The scariest part is that
the majority of foster parents could be pedophiles, as the majority of pedophiles have most likely applied to
become foster parents. It is a safe bet to make that the government is paying pedophiles to care for children.
And the organization which investigates foster parents is the same one that put the child with them. Would they
really admit to making such a mistake?
Appalachia Revisited
"The librarian doesn't tell me what to read, doesn't tell me what sequence of reading I have to follow,

—John Taylor Gatto
"Do nothing. Time is too precious to waste." This old saying has so much meaning for me now. After spending
only months reading about public school, child abuse, psychiatry, etc., I have come to realize that the only
escape from the coming socialist-collectivism, the only way out of a government whose slogan is "Mother and
Father Love You", the only way to find any freedom, is to opt-out, drop out, run away, and savor every single
thought and emotion, no matter how vile or obscene it may be. They are our thoughts; that alone makes them
Society is too far gone to change. Forget it. Leave it behind. I left once, I caught a glimpse of the freedom that
awaits each of us. It's dirty, hungry, violent, cold, humid, and filled with all of the beauty one could dream of.
It will cut you, beat you, make you go for months without a bath. But, in the midst of all of the torturous
wilderness, the slimey garbage dumps, the barren city streets, in the middle of all of that, nature will turn from
a cold, harsh mistress into a wonderous, joyful moment of absolute bbrrrrrrriing.
Put up with nature's shit. Trust me. She may be a bitch, but if you truly love her, she'll make every moment
worth it.

A disobediant slave is a terrorist.

The Pop-Up Book of Human Anatomy
written by Fox in Detox
I had yellow on that morning, as if the universe were my plan and I was in it. Alas, alack, a lass was in my
foyer, dancing to the sounds of ginger bread. Much to my dismay, she was not here to play, as the turmoil
subdued and came up dead. The psycherotic who spends his time speculating on the existence or nature of the
magic world inside the abandoned refridgerator is worried about the wrong things and needs to refocus on the
goal of self-improvement. Introspection is the primary means of spiritual growth. If you have only two
alternatives, are you my proctologist? Powerful forces of indescribable power compel me to warn you right
now: do not attempt to become a programmer unless you already are one, and if you are, you know what I
mean and you can skip that line you just read. Nothing in all the world is more dangerous than sincere
ignorance. My pocket rocket needs a socket. We've arranged a global civilization in which the most crucial
elements profoundly depend on science and technology. We have also arranged things so that almost no one
understands science and technology. Your colon can mu, can you? It is time to stand up and fight for a return to
reason and plain common sense. I feel the challenge that faces all people from all walks of life is to seek the
truth, test the truth, and speak the truth. Daddy drinks because you cry. A single intelligent remark can destroy
a man's entire career. There are only two kinds of artists: the plagiarists and the revolutionaries.
The Constitution admittedly has a few defects and blemishes, but it still seems a hell of a lot better than the
system we have now. Herbert the Pervert likes sherbet. You must always hate the right group to maintain your
modernity. To become post-modern, find even more groups to hate. What part of "government-controlled
education" does not scare the shit out of you? "Making money" shouldn't be confused with "creating wealth".
Some kittens can fly. Real wealth is what supports and enhances human life, whereas money is just numbers in
a database. Many wealth creators (inventors, artists, mothers, etc) are penniless, and many money makers are
useless bloodsuckers. Why can't Mr. Fork and Mr. Electrical Outlet be friends? Masturbation is one of the most
universal ways of sex expression; as an outlet for atavistic and perverse cravings, masturbation performs a
socially useful function.
Therefor, let us sing and dance a galliard,
To the dislexic teachings of the mallard;
And as the mallard dives in pool,
Let us drinkle, tinkle, and torkle in Bowl.
Oh! By the green of Lady Arana,
Oh! By the green of Lady Arana,
It was a wrinkled, trinkled mallard.
Ask not what you can do for sexual fascism, ask who's for lunch.
On Time
written by Chuff
If time-travel were possible, half of us would be from the future, and a small percentage from the past (who
were taken forward by futurites). Looking at the Amish and all of the patriots who blindly accept whatever the
gov says as if it were already Big Bro, I kinda get the feeling it is possible… and that I should move to
Lancaster County.
S. Hawkings, Normal
But, sadly, time is just a parameter used to measure change. A circle does not have a delta dimension; that
is just there so that we can plot the circle. There is no past, quantumly speaking, and there is no future. Time is
just a psychological method of applying order to events. Yes, there is cause and effect, but not time. The past is
simply what everything was once arranged as.
Think of it like paper. The ink in the picture is constantly moving around, changing the image. Does this
imply that there is a reem of paper under the image? that each movement creates a new piece of paper? that we
can flip-book our way to the past? Applying Occam's Razor, it is much simpler and easier to move ink around
than to tediously redraw the image with only minor variations.
But, if the above is wrong, think about the atoms, laws of conservation, et cetera. Time-travel would
neccessitate the swapping of atoms from the present with atoms from the future. With the way atoms interact,
some future atoms would stay in the present while present atoms stay in the future. And then, of course, some
atom meets its past self and bad shit happens.
Unless, of course, atoms in the present were rearranged to be identical in formation to the future person,
thus not moving atoms through time. That limits time-travel to information. (And, in quantum physics,
"information" is just jargon for "aether.") This form of time-travel isn't travel, but is rather just revisionist
history. Instead of changing the history books now, we change the original events. That's just too spooky to
consider, especially after watching Lathe of Heaven on A&E.
Applying Occam's Razor, though, we see that we're merely rearranging the present as if something else
had happened. Why go through all the trouble of string theory, worm-holes, temporal paradoxes, et cetera,
when you can simply smear the ink around. In the end, ((2+3)/5+(6-7)) is just 0 and time-travel is merely
instantaneous change at a system-wide level.
The Menu is Not the Meal
There are things we can percieve and things we cannot. There are things which exist and things which do
not. The two feilds do overlap, but one is not a subset of the other.
Anything that exists has an affect on us, whether we percieve it or not. We can feel heat and get hot. We
cannot sense extra-low frequency (ELF) waves yet they can alter our moods.
Anything which does not exist does not have an affect on us—at least, not directly. You might say that
time has an affect on us but that is only indirectly. If our molecules did not change, if atoms did not enter or
leave or react internally, we would not age. (This is known as "stasis" and is the basic premise behind
cryogenics.) Time does not affect us directly; the interactions of our composite atoms do.
Time is an item on an out-dated menu. "We haven't had that spirit here since 1969."
Corn Starch: Particle or Wave?
Have you ever tried that old child's experiment of mixing corn starch and water? When you squeeze it, it
becomes solid. When you let go, it becomes liquid.
In reality, it does neither. A solid has its atoms close together in a way that allows them little room to
escape. A liquid has some room, but not enough to escape gravity. Compressing the mixture does away with
the room by forcing the corn starch closer together, trapping water between the pieces. Letting go allows the
water to ease its way out.
When you observe certain sub-atomic things, they behave as particles. When you don't observe them, they
behave like waves. In this situation, the material compromising the sub-atomic "thing" is being compressed by
the observation process. (Well, not exactly; we're speaking in analogies.)
When does water become ice? What is the defining difference between sold and liquid, or liquid and gas?
Is it just a marker on a scale? As stated earlier, the difference is in the room between atoms, the empty space
compromising 99.9% of the universe and each of us. This means that solidity is on a scale.
Attempting to classify sub-atomic stuff as particles or waves is the same as temperature. If we apply the
same model to weather, we have the wave of Antarctica and the particle of the Sarahan Desert. Now, let's look
at the New England states. Sometimes, when the sun is looking directly at it, it's a particle (hot). Other times,
when the sun is looking at other stuff, it's a wave (cold).
The sub-atomic stuff we are seeing is Boston in its temperature; it is corn starch and water. Particles and
waves are not a strict duality, like hot and cold, night and day. We have degrees of temperature and
candlepowers of light. I propose chuffs of particleness. 0 chuffs means a wave that will be observed as a wave,
going all the way to 267 chuffs where it will be a particle regardless of observation.
The Evolution of Perception
We evolved our senses in a way that benefited survival. Seeing ELF waves or UHF waves wasn't
necessary; our current spectrum has served us well. Scent, touch, taste, sight, and hearing were all necessary to
some degree. So is time.
Time, psychologically, is the perception of change, as sight is the perception of light. The benefit comes
from a coupling with pattern recognition: prediction. When we see the early stages of a situation we've been
through before, we can safely assume it will happen again. We see someone light a grill and we know they're
cooking dinner… most likely meat. We see storm clouds and predict rain.
The dope-fiends by the river hear foot-steps on the path. They hide their paraphenalia, because those foot-
steps are the first stage of getting busted by the cops.
We percieve change because it helps us survive. Our perception of change is our sense of time.
Time is the sixth sense. That's why we attribute such things as fortune-telling, prophecy, and prediction to
it. Clairvoyancy is just our ability to sense how distant things are changing. (Most likely through our already-
known ability to be affected by, even if we can't sense, ELF and UHF waves.)
Light-Speed and Time
By my understanding of relativity theory, as something approaches the speed of light, its rate of change
slows down. One could travel near light-speed for a thousand years and come out of it only a day older.
This assumes that light either doesn't change at all or is somehow immune to this effect. Light-speed
cannot be the time barrier, simply because the stuff which makes light does not stay static. If it did, we couldn't
see, since light can't change or interact with our rods and cones.
If, however, light was immune from the velocity barrier, we must wonder if there might be some margin of
error in Einstein's math. Perhaps the curve is a bit too curved or not curved enough?
Of course, this is merely the interpretation of relativity that I've heard from people who believe time-travel
is possible, so Albert will forgive me if I've misunderstood his work.
The above, of course, must be dealt with before we can say anything about velocity's relationship with
time, neither of which is a dimension.
There is no flip-book of time. The closest we can get to time-travel is a Star Trek convention in
Williamsburg, West Virginia. Asking if we can travel through time is equivalent to asking if we can travel
through scent.
Hashish-Pot: Kristan Xara On Sex, Philosophy, and…
Posted by Omil Bor
from the some-kids-just-need-a-good-spanking dept.
Not only did Kristan Xara answer your questions, but she said they were excellent questions. You've got to love
Kristan Xara, not just because she's a sexy, prepubescent girl and creator of pilusophy, but also because she is
the first Hashish-Pot interview guest ever to send her answers stained with the cum of a thousand Irish setters
(which is hard to do via email). We appreciate this like you wouldn't believe, so don't. They're great answers,
too—straightforward, intelligent, and entertaining. Enjoy!
1) Pilusophy as a Sexual Revolution or a Philosophy
by Dave S. Here
I've been practicing pilusophy for a very long time, but primarily as a sexual revolution. I mostly use it
as an excuse for bare-backing and child-molesting. With the recent developments in pilusophy,
however, there seems to be the trend that pilusophy is about much, much more, while retaining the
exterior of being just a sexual revolution.
What do you think about how people are using pilusophy today? Are you satisfied that most people use
it for simple things like cock-sucking? Would you like to see more advanced philosophies being built
with pilusophy verses some other form of hedonism?
I am perfectly happy for pilusophy to continue sucking cock. Pilusophy has always been, and always will be (I
hope), a humble hedonism. When I am 18 years old, even if everyone in the whole world puts me on a pedestal
and thinks I'm the renaissanciest bitch that ever took it on the chin, I will still perform bukkake as street theater.
But just as people grow, pilusophy continues to grow. Pilusophy has acquired new psychologies over the years,
and people have been using pilusophy to rationalize all sorts of things that are arguably beyond the limits of
common sense or legality. The solution to that is not to stop people from doing that, but to increase pilusophy's
notion of responsibile behavior.
I'm really under no illusions that we can make a perfect sexual philosophy. There's no such thing. Merely
making a more expressive sexuality means it's in some sense more difficult to learn how to express your
sexuality in a responsible manner. That's the price of freedom.
2) Pilusophy Beginners
by PuttyPatrol
I'm a Catholic priest who's recently become very interested in pilusophy along with other philosophies.
However, I don't really have a need or desire to actually use pilusophy. I am big into learning as much
as I can about it for its own sake.
Now for the question: Given this approach to learning pilusophy (just for a general working knowledge),
is it really worth spending a lot of my time learning pilusophy now, or should I wait for the big
pilusophy revolution?
I don't think you (or your career) would be damaged by learning pilusophy, though I'm sure there are those
who would disagree—or at least get off on being disagreeable.
If you enjoy reading pilusophic texts, then go for it. That will be the "big revolution".
3) What Will You Not Do with Pilusophy?
by Clay Harris
What would you say has been the number one requested feature that you will not add to pilusophy, and
why not?
That depends on what you call a feature, and what you call a fetish.
For instance, I officially rejected the request to rationalize the practice of pedophilia, while actually accepting
the underlying premise that children have their own sexuality. The better solution is not to introduce more
fetishes, but to fix the notion of sexuality to include all forms of fetishism while expanding the idea of
responsible behavior to protect all those involved.
Another often-requested feature that's not going into pilusophy is reproductive goals. That's one of those
features that seems like a good idea when you're looking at a small group of people, but it breaks down when
the population gets larger than the food supply.
5) Pilusophy vs STDs
by Vobby Bagina
Whenever pilusophy pops up in Hashish-Pot, there are plenty of sex zealots claiming pilusophy has
been obsoleted by HIV and you should really be using condoms or practicing monogamy instead.
What are your thoughts on these diseases? What steps are you taking to prevent infection, if any?
Your genitals are your responsibility. Always demand a copy of the test results and a condom (in case they
were infected in the interim or the disease isn't detectable), should you choose to fuck another human.
There is no rationalizing infection. We have not yet found reason to accept suicide as a viable sexuality. On the
other hand, we have accepted homicide under the power-play doctrine (if you're willing to play victim).
As always, a full disclosure on your current health and reproductive status are mandatory for all interactions.
Someone shouldn't be forcing the victim role on you without your permission.
6) Pilusophy and Pedophilia
by Protoaxis
What is your opinion of pedophilia in general and pilusophy's role in it? Given that pedophilia can be
rationalized by pilusophy, would it be acceptable to do so? Do you see good future for this tandem?
As far as pilusophy is concerned, sex is sex, orgasm is orgasm, and kids are kids.
The practice of pedophilia verges on being irresponsible. While I don't readily accept practicing it, I do accept
children who go looking for it, provided they understand the consequences and dangers, and do so of their own
free will. The main problem will always be informed consent on the child's part and ensuring their protection.
The child has to understand everything about sex, from fore-play to STD's, from porn to payment.
On the other hand, whatever (or whoever) you do in your head is your business. As a strictly non-practiced
sexuality, as with all non-practiced sexualities, it is perfectly okay.
The current approach to pedophilia is a bit paranoid, I think. That is partly a result of society's unwillingness to
admit that children can be the least bit interested in sex, and partly the result of the RMT/FMS epidemic. At the
very least, I want to see our society educating children on the dangers and consequences of sex. As they say,
"Talk to your kids. They'll listen." This is our best hope of preventing the spread of STDs, and possibly the
only way we'll have any sanity in our society.
6.5) From a Legal Perspective
by Mustang Sally
What are your thoughts on the comments made by people that pilusophy exists merely to rationalize
illegal activity?
The law was made by people who took a narrow view of sex. While the law can be a good thing (I wholly
support the continued illegality of the practice of pedophilia), it can also be misdirected and counter-productive
(psychiatry is mental rape).
Pilusophy's official stance on all matters is, "If it harms no one, do what thou will." As for the law, "Love is the
law; love willingly."
7) Role of Religion
by Anonymous Cowdog
I remember reading at some point that you are a recovering Catholic, and there have been sugestions
that pilusophy is merely a rebellion against the stifling sexuality of Catholicism.
Do you think heterosexuality, monogamy, or same-age relations are bad things? What is your stance on
marriage, the missionary-position, birth-control?
They're all okay, if that's what you want to do.
Pilusophy isn't about rebellion or revolution. It's about accepting your sexuality and practicing it responsibly.
8) Thanks Kristan
by Mme. Wordsworth
Like many others, I love pilusophy. I use it both professionally and personally. You've not only helped
make my career, but also given me a very pleasent past-time. I was wondering what I can do to say
thank-you? Can we give you money? Dontate something to someone, etc.?
How about sending me some frozen Irish setter cum for my next interview? :-P
Writing erotica for your sexuality and submitting it to the official pilusophy shadow-corporation, the
Psycherotic Church, is more than enough. Since I've helped you, why not help others?
9) Pilusophy's Negation
by Mary Ism
Pilusophy has been great for getting people off and undoing the damage of repression. As a philosophy,
though, this effectiveness depends upon people's willingness to actually read and understand the
material. Just look at what happened to situationism.
My question is: Is pilusophy making any attempt to maintain its effectiveness and prevent the self-
negation that befell situationism?
"Fuck the pilusophy revolution" is not just a slogan; it's our manner of weeding out the undesireables who will
latch onto pilusophy merely to support their own fragile sense of self by adding material that makes little or no
Situationism died because it was over-run by philosophers and politicians who were using the idea of
situationism to create a little elitist cult of essayists. In reality, a situationist wouldn't be caught dead bothering
with essays; he'd be out living.
Ftpr, then, is how to approach pilusophist philosophy. A real pilusophist doesn't write, s/he fucks pilusophy
with the written word. Every single piece of pilusophic writing should be typed one-handed by people who are
aroused by the sound of the springs in the space-bar or the curves in the font.
In short, pilusophy's written material is only for people who get off while reading it. Pilusophy, as a
philosophy, is, and should be, erotica.
…like a cross between Larry Flint and Descartes.
10) Pilusophy's Existential Validity
by Kim Korn
Does pilusophy even exist? or is it being astro-turfed? Where are all of the texts you talk about? What
the hell is pilusophy?

wicked tangent 64
You forget sometimes, when you're wrapped up in your own little world far away from anything
else, that there are other people, that the people you talk to aren't just figments of your imagination,
that these people have their own lives and you're only an itty-bitty part of it. Why am I saying "you"?
I mean "I", of course. I don't give a fuck about you or what you forget. I forget these things. I forget
that, when you go away, you still exist.
This isn't the point.
The point is: I don't know how to deal with people. Sensitive people, even just mildly so, make
me want to scream. I stay away from those who turn every little comment into a personal attack. Hell,
I stay away from those who turn "You're a fucking idiot!" into a personal attack. But sometimes I
don't realize these things about people soon enough. Sometimes I go and make friends, people I really
like, but one day they annoy me a bit, just a bit, and only 'cause I'm already in a pissy mood, and I
just want to say "Oh fuck, I don't care at all about what you're saying! Shut up please!" and then I do
say that and then they get mad and it takes me a second to realize why. No, I never really realize why,
I just pretend I do.
But how many people in the world haven't wanted someone to shut up at one point? What is so
wrong with this? What is so wrong about saying it? Especially to a friend? Someone who knows you
like them anyway, knows you're in a bad mood? Shit, you pissy little fucks.
I can sit with Sarah and I can say "you're boring me" or "you're being a complete ass to Joe" or
"hey, leave me alone for a while." And she can say the same dam things to me. And it's like that with
all my friends, and dam it, I love that.
But some people, shit, with the sulking and the getting angry and the oh goddess shut up already.
I'm off-topic here. The point is: If I feel like I have to do the metaphorical walking-on-eggshells
crap, I'll just stop. I won't play that game. Not with you.
When Censorship Works, You Don't Know It
written by Raymond Conan Tuit
Don't fool yourself into thinking that this, or anything else you are exposed to, is "uncensored". The cynical and
naive hacks who promote "culture" for their own self-interest use the idea of anti-censorship to lend their
adopted discourses credibility, and to once again mystify a passive audience—an audience correctly expected
to consume any controlled spectacle which is appropriately framed. Production is censorship. All events take
the place of something else. Undesired, unmentioned, unimagined. What you will be exposed to today is
designed to reinforce the functioning of a particularly narrow identity—one which is not only out of touch with
really interesting "human culture", but also oblivious to the unmediated unitary experiences which lie outside of
it. In short, a set of redundant gestures completely in support of the status quo, creating another illusion of
freedom—repressive tolerance.
Intro to Psycherotica
written by Joseph T. Raschack
Everything ends in death, regardless of how much we deny it. The denial of death is the cause of suffering.
Embrace your own death. End the suffering even as you deny it. Kill yourself.

[Chuff's exclamation: There's what now?]
[Sarah's reminder: You don't remember? He said he wanted all four pillars, so he knocked me up and used that
coat hanger, then proceeded to blow his wad on your boots, ate Stillwell, and inhaled some helium.]
[Chuff's lament: Oh, lament!]
[Sarah's insult: Only the lame lament.]
[Chuff's denial: Okay, it's been five seconds. I can continue to deny that this ever happened.]

Items are "nonrival" when we can all make use of them without anyone having to give them up. If I copy your
CD, you're none the worse for it (nonrival), but if I steal your car, you will probably be upset (rival). Goods are
"nonexcludable" when it becomes impractical to stop everyone from making use of the item, once one person
can. It is infeasible, for instance, to stop additional viewers of broadcast television (nonexcludable), while it is
very feasible to stop additional moviegoers from entering a theater (excludable). Economists call nonrival,
nonexcludable items "pure public goods."
Digital content is a pure public good.

Let's Talk About Sex
from The Class War Federation
As far as I'm concerned, working in crummy factories for disgusting pay was the most exploitative work
I ever did in my life. I'm aware that, in a sense, it was Hobson's choice for me. But I maintain that I had
more control over my life as a worker in the sex industry than as a worker in an ordinary factory.
—Nickie Roberts, former prostitute and stripper
Porn. Women's liberation. Prostitution. Sexuality. Promiscuity. Feminism. All these issues and struggles
have been discussed, misinterpreted, used by people and groups to win some power and try to control others.
Usually, in this mess, the subject of sex and sexual behaviour crops up time and time again. To win their
arguments, a lot of politicians, middle class feminists, and religious bigots have launched attacks on working
class people's sex lives.
The arguments and debates have been confusing and have left people feeling guilty about totally natural
sexual desire and behaviour. This has not helped women, men, or our class as a whole.
We have produced this article to get the juices flowing. We don't want to control or put people's lives on
guilt trips, like so many others—we do want to fight for a world where sex, like every other arena of our lives,
is healthy, free of unnecessary confusion, and controlled by us, not the powers that be.
In the late 1970s and early 1980s, the politics of sex changed. Sex became the banner under which all
women, regardless of their class, race, or nationality, were supposedly united. Suddenly the bizarre idea that
sex=porn=men=violence became a universal equation.
The theory was so reactionary that, at the time, it was hard to seperate the voices of the radical left from
the extreme right.
Story So Far
Up until this time, the battle had been to bring into the open the discrimination that women faced every
day. The overall mood was that anything was possible—women were insisting on breaking out of the repressive
roles that had been forced on them. They demanded that women's sexual pleasure should be a fundamental part
of any heterosexual relationship.
In the 1990s, unless you're a religious or sexual bigot, this is just plain common sense. But in the 1970s
the world just wasn't used to women defining themselves as sexual beings.
Women began exploring sexual possibilities, which was both a painful and a liberating experience.
However, this was a short halcyon period of time, and one that was replaced by the theory that sexual
liberation was a dangerous thing—if women became too sexually liberated, then men would hold it against
While some women were brave enough to leap into the unknown, others were claiming that women's
sexuality had been so colonised and threatened that there was only one route to take: batten down the hatches,
and try to get rid of everything that was, and still is, unpleasant and nasty.
Because sex and desire can't be described as rational, these feelings have always been associated with
chaos and non-conformity.
Middle class feminists wanted the women's movement to have the aura of respectability. Due to these
reactionaries, Victorian values became dressed up as feminist thought.
Some History
Middle class Victorian women and some suffragettes had established themselves as moral authorities.
Even some of the most radical nineteenth century activists had accepted the overall view that men are sexual
predators, and that "fallen" women were victims of them.
Of course, the view also held that married middle class women were sexually pure.
The suffragette, Christobel Pankhurst, claimed that women had to be sexually above reproach to be
morally worthy of the vote! Needless to say, this didn't apply to men who already had the vote and ran the
The right, like Pankhurst, has always tried to keep women as prisoners by emphasising the idea that
women's "feminine" nature is essentially different from mens'. Feminists began to fall into the trap of idealising
women in much the same way—claiming that they were celebrating, rather than punishing, "difference."
The result was, whether a woman is stuck up on an angelic pedestal of purity, or stuck in the kitchen in
between dropping countless babies, she's still stuck.
Then, when the middle class suffragettes, activists, and right-wingers all got into bed with biological
theories, they turned sex into a battleground. These theories stated that women are passive nurturers and men
are active aggressors.
The idea was that women have to play victim always. So it wasn't a great surprise that when the sex
backlash started in the 1970s, talking about women enjoying heterosexual sex, it was seen as feminist heresy.
Sex and Sexism
Sex began to be blamed for all sexism. The fact that the way we bring up our children, and the way that
women are politically and economically controlled, took a back seat in the sex politics of the day—they weren't
seen as keys to women's oppression.
It wasn't just sexual violence and sexism, but fucking in general, that became the main issue of gender
Women were universal victims, having to endure whatever was forced upon them sexually, by men. The
concept of consensual, exciting sex wasn't even on the agenda.
Men, especially working class men, were generally seen as timebombs, waiting to be activated by a quick
glance at a wank magazine. The argument that reducing heterosexual sex to a no-go status would limit, rather
than expand, women's sexual and general freedoms, was seen as an argument collaborating with the enemy.
In a world which usually relies on copulation for us to survive, gathering together to wipe out intercourse
was too self-destructive, and equally un-natural, even for followers of such puritanical feminists as the
American, Andrea Dworkin. As a result, many began to attack pornography, to attack sex, rather than to attack
the exploitation of women. "Porn is the theory. Rape is the practice," became feminist bywords. There was little
data to support the theory, but sex is too emotive an issue to need factual back-up. As a result, the struggle for
women's greater economic, intellectual, and sexual freedom was replaced by demands for censorship.
Porno Wars
In denouncing pornography, feminism found itself allied with right-wing fundamentalists. Church groups
and right-wing pressure groups joined feminists in blaming pornography for sexism.
While our society is highly controlled and deeply sexist, pornography may mirror sexism, but it never
created it. Most porn is incredibly stupid and quite evidently exploits women as objects with wide-open orifices,
beckoning: "I'm lovely, I'm your plaything, do what you want to me." However, it is misleading to claim that
all porn is violent and dangerous.
Anti-porn campaigners often state that all women hate pornography; adding that all women working in the
sex industry are victims.
Rather than calling for safer working environments for sex workers, middle class moralists, bigots, and
intellectuals have called for more repressive laws and social stigma. The result is that it unofficially gives the
go-ahead to the way both police and punters brutalise women working in the sex industry—and that is violence
and sexism.
It is ironic that police raids more often than not target gay literature and culture. While soft porn sits less
than prettily on the top shelf of your local newsagents, gay bookshops have had cops stripping their shelves of
Oscar Wilde's work.
Feminists, past and present, may do well to remember that when Margaret Thatcher, John Major, Neil
Kinnock, and Tony Blair are on your side, you've got serious problems. When politicians say that they want to
legislate to help the anti-porn campaigns, then it's obviously not the status quo that they'll be legislating against.
Feminists who want the law to clamp down on porn and the sex industry claim that they are not anti-sex.
When pornography has been stamped out, they say they'll be more than happy to see it replaced by "erotica."
Apparently, "erotica" is aesthetically pleasing, whereas porn is simply manipulative. But class prejudice
and aesthetics go hand in hand—if the middle and ruling classes like a sexy image, they sanitise it by calling it
erotic art. At the same time, the things that turn the working classes on get labelled as "smut." We're not
referring to, or advocating, things like the Carry On films or Hustler magazine either.
Who then has the right to decide what's art and what's smut? Usually it's middle class academics who
assume the right. They have never been known to support either class struggle, or in this case, the sexual
liberation and freedoms of both working class women and men, regardless of whether they're gay, straight, or
They do, however, fulfil a very similar role to the scientists of Victorian England, with their "biological
arguments," and the moralists of old who wanted women to be chaste and pure women before they had the
right to vote.
Are You Protected?
Class politics are part and parcel of sexual politics. The Victorian idea that the working classes must be
protected from their own foul and perverse natures is a central part of the anti-porn campaign.
The middle classes get to say what can be safely seen because they believe themselves intelligent enough
to read pictures and images in more than one way. Anti-pornographers insist that working class men are
incapable of seeing sexual images without being a danger to women. This paints working class men as stupid
sex monsters, and reinforces the view that, sexually, men are "all potential rapists." In fact so potential that a
glance at sex in a movie or a naked woman on a page will send them all out to rape and abuse, or will damage
their souls forever.
It is a damaging, hierarchical, and sexist class society that introduces the idea of sexual abuse and male
power and dominance over women—this is the key to exploitative attitudes and behaviour, not pictures of
naked adults having sex.
When In Rome…
At the turn of the century, excavations of Roman Pompeii produced walls, doors, and courtyards full of
"mucky" pictures. The Victorians decided that such smut couldn't be reconciled with what they saw as a great
All the finds were put into a locked room. When it was finally decided to show the exhibits, the room
remained locked to "Women, children, and the uneducated." You see, not much has changed.
Any move back in time, any backsliding in the liberation of our bodies and minds, whether in the name of
celebrating womanhood or slagging off promiscuity, is a definite step towards yet more repression—and when
repression is in full swing, we lose the little right we have won to make our own decisions and control our
lives, making informed choices.
Keep Pushing
Arguments over sex and sexual freedom have been paralysing the progress of the feminist movement for
years. The last thing we need are new forms of guilt for women, marching under the dodgy and ever-changing
banner of political correctness.
Feminism and sexual politics have to be fundamentally about choice, control over our lives and our bodies,
and that must include sexual choice.
Claiming that all women are sexual victims did not unite the women's movement, it just made women feel
scared, disempowered, and helpless. It also drove a wedge between women and men who wanted things to
Avoiding sex, its complications and contradictions, its passion and energy, won't make any of us strong. It
won't help us to combat sexism either. What sidestepping the issue in the name of unity and political
correctness does is to ensure that middle class women continue to tell working class women (and men) what to
do—both in and out of bed.
Sex Is Brilliant
It would be a huge setback for working class people to follow the confusions and morality that has been
forced upon us for millennia. There are statements about how we should behave sexually dating back far
beyond the Bible, and certainly that little book has been responsible for some very serious repression of
women, and at times, of men, particularly gay men.
Sex can be and should be enjoyable for all those taking part in it, and we should certainly not be
sanctioned and frowned upon if sex is our way of earning a living, feeding our kids, and having a life rather
than just surviving.
That doesn't automatically make prostitution or porn okay—no more okay than having to get up before
dawn to build homes for the rich, or clean sewers, or get our brains numbed in some production line or other.
Neither does this make any excuses for the social fuck-ups and inadequates who rape, molest, and abuse.
Keep the Juices Flowing
Sex, and enjoying it, is natural; it's a major part of our lives. When we have consenting sex, with however
many partners, male, female, gay, straight, or bisexual, why shouldn't it be with passion, pride, excitement, and
experimentation? If no one is hurt or exploited, if power isn't used over another, then our sex is just that—our
It's in the interests of all our class to discuss sex and sexuality, to control our own bodies, and to learn
lessons about what's good and what's not. Good medical advice aside, the moralists, politicians, and middle
classes have no right to hinder us or intefere.

Metronymathy: A Conspiracy Theorist's Myth
An Archetypal Apology in Five Parts
Based on Two (Possibly Three) True Stories
written by Lord Chuff, MRC, KSC, tVS, LRH
The Introduction
When people write something like this, it is usually because a spirit has tapped them on their shoulder
and started whispering.
Not this. I have heard the whisperings others have written and, when it happened to a friend, I decided
to do something along the same lines…
Before I begin, let me give you fair warning: Nothing is real and fantasy is everything. View with
caution that which surrounds you. Believing it is there is folly.
—from The Black File, A Journal of Metronymathy
This document is intended for any practicing occultist, as the information contained herein may prove valuable
to the stability of your social circle and your sanity.
What follows is a brief description of events which have happened to me twice. The focus is on the people
involved, for without them the situation would not have been possible. They have been abstracted and
archetyped to assist you in determining if you are in such a situation, but you have to be honest with yourself as
there is no good role to have.
Also, you or someone else may fit two or more roles, the descriptions may not be accurate or entirely
applicable, etc., since this is myth and not math.
The archetypes fit loosely into the following diagram:
/----- Warrior -----\
/ | \
| | |
Acute ----- Lady ----- Obtuse
| | |
\ | /
\----- Watcher -----/
Note that this may all be a product of religious rebellion in an age where Wiccans have their own TV shows
and the Pope apologizes for past mistakes. The old threat of the all-powerful Catholic Church no longer exists,
so we create new ones. Then again, it could just be hormones, youthful stupidity, and paranoia…
The Lady
Associations: Spirit, Pungent
Description: A girl, most often, as sexual tension is a component of any small group. Her situation is one
where she is threatened by an outside enemy. Sometimes, she may not view it as a threat (e.g., recieving visions
from what she thinks is a creator deity). Always, the Threat is either distant and/or intangible (e.g., a demonic
entity or a role-playing psychotic pen-pal from three states away). This non-presence is mandatory, however,
for an actual threat can be dealt with. She is often romantically involved with the Warrior.
Inner Turmoil: Her problems may vary and she may have attempted or considered suicide in the past. She
either feeds off of the support, sympathy, and attention, or she feeds off of the conflict, antipathy, and attention.
Both aggravate the situation, as it is the only thing she has in her life.
At the time A. recieved the revised vision, she was suicidal about [her father's abusiveness]. She also
told me the book was getting repetitive…
—from The Black File, A Journal of Metronymathy
The Warrior
Associations: Fire, Orange
Description: This guy is all about action, even if he's a complete dork. (Not you, S.) He wants, above all, to
ensure the Lady's safety. Chivalrous as he may be, his attempts are misguided and often involve magicks which
seek to contact the Threat. While he may spend a few weeks mentally preparing for battle, he never actually
launches any assault (other than verbal).
Inner Turmoil: He is doing what is expected of him, what he feels is Right. Underneath this, he has no idea
how to relate to the Lady but can't find the courage to break-up with her. The situation offers a two-fold benefit
to him: he finds a way to relate to her (as a guardian) and can suspend the break-up indefinitely. His problems
with socializing may run deeper than this, manifesting as an irreverent, anarchistic attitude, or an interest in
S. went on visions like a bitch. He saw a war; we and some others were helping. Something called him
"M." (stress second syllable) but he's "M." in name only.
[…] S. said only he could fight M. but he needs our help.
—from The Black File, A Journal of Metronymathy
The Watcher
Associations: Water, Sweet
Description: Usually an artistic fellow, he is interested in the hidden reality behind what appears to be a
completely disruptive situation, although he'll only admit to wondering what the Threat's intentions are. He is
most likely keeping a journal of the events and may end up with quite a few of the artifacts (crystals, sketches,
etc.). His first involvement with the situation is usually being asked for help, or accidentally giving it (e.g., he
doodles a sketch of the Threat while listening to the others talk about the situation).
Inner Turmoil: He thinks that he is in touch with himself emotionally, yet never notices why he stays involved
in the situation. This upon many other self-delusions; he may even be, ironically, an Emily Dickinson fan. His
unconscious drive to be a member of a group—any group—allows him to constantly move the conversation
back to the situation, since only through the situation does he feel any connection to the others.
Cut ninth period with A. Luckily I had a tape recorder with me. Transcription:
"I had a dream last night. […] M. is not a god. M. is, uh, more like a guardian-slash-messenger for the
higher power […]
"And I also learned that L., which is that evil spirit supposedly, that we thought was bothering S., is not
an evil spirit at all. He is, um, S.'s version of M. […] L. was punishing him for, uh, trying to like kill
him […]"
Paranoid: what if M. is tricking us into leaving him alone?
—from The Black File, A Journal of Metronymathy
The Acute
Associations: Air, Boom
Description: A philosopher, most likely of chaosophy or a more secular school, he is rarely considered a
member of the group. His attempts to calm the situation back-fire subtly. By saying It is not what they think, he
only reinforces the idea that It exists. Far be it from him to state plainly the truth, for he will surely be expelled
from the group; instead, he may interject oddities into the events, such as having the Threat contradict itself
when the Warrior or the Lady communicates with it. None too graceful at the subversive approach, the
aggravation towards him heightens the severity of the situation.
Inner Turmoil: He actually cares about his friends and wants to help them, but is too theoretically oriented to
know what to do or how (e.g., a philosopher who knows all about pagan deities but has never attempted
meditation). Sometimes, just his presence is enough to prevent escalation, but he rarely notices this.
- I ignored a joke B. made and channeled M.
- Second time, B. ditched and [then] S. tranced out major
—from The Black File, A Journal of Metronymathy
The Obtuse
Associations: Earth, Prickle
Description: He likes hanging out with his friends but doesn't want to get involved. He acts like he does, lest
scorn befall him. Whenever something happens, his first thought is to find some way of saying he didn't see or
hear it; this often aggravates the situation when he has to find some excuse other than "you were mumbling" or
"I fell asleep during the meditation." The question raised by his excuses is never "Do you not care?" but rather
"If the Threat is capable of hiding itself from certain people, why do we know of it?"
Inner Turmoil: He just wants to hang out, but is shy or has trouble making friends. He may even feel trapped,
for the others insist on having him there (e.g., to "complete the elemental circle"), but this insistence is always
interpreted as a sign that they like him.
Not much new. B. is mad at J. for some reason (at least, this is what I hear from S.). My best guess
would be J. joining with little clue about anything (didn't even know his gate, which was decided [for
him] to be East) after "S." didn't join…
—from The Black File, A Journal of Metronymathy
The Threat
Associations: The Abyss, Null-0
Description: As Philip K. Dick said in VALIS: "[That's] Exactly what the powers of hell feed on: the best
instincts in man." Most of those involved just want to help or protect eachother. Lacking focus, direction, or
wisdom, they create a common enemy and set to work. The situation is resolved when prolonged paranoia gets
the best of them and the adrenaline hang-over kicks in, or when a manifestation date is set for the Threat and it
passes without incident, for the fourth time (and not before). The end always happens quietly and, if asked, no
one can say for sure when it happened.
Inner Turmoil: Everyone wants it to exist, but it doesn't. The cohesiveness of their group becomes dependant
on it, to the point where the group dissolves all interaction and the former members would rather not see
eachother (it would be "too uncomfortable").
[Looking back on it,] Alot of what happened was bullshit and could have been prevented. The circle
could have grown stronger if I had just said, "To each his/her own."
[…] Where things stand now, I was involved with similar but deadlier circumstances recently, involving
people from the BH. B. and I came to the conclusion that they were freaking themselves out, fucking
with shit they didn't understand…
—from The Black File, A Journal of Metronymathy
The Conclusion
The magick in the situation is real and powerful, but it is not the magick you think it is. The magicks we were
playing with weren't wiccan or spiritual, they were group-psychological.
Psychology is not a science, any scientist will tell you that. Psychology is an attempt to explain something
which is hidden and complex—the same way religion tries to explain the origins of the world or the human
race. Thus, psychology is a form of magick.
The spell is the group. The interactions of the group—power structures, repressed sexual urges, the focus of the
group, even people at the periphery—all play significantly in the magick.
The problem was simple: we created an enemy, a group-focus, but had no idea what it was. This didn't make us
unfocused; rather, it made some of us paranoid and the rest got lost as we focused on finding the enemy, no
matter what it was.
In the end, I know only what I knew at the start: A. was having dreams that made living with her father slightly
more bearable, while the rest of us were sinking into a tarpit of occultism trying to figure out who was giving
her the visions. The answer was obvious enough: A. gave herself those visions. But we humans rarely see what
is obvious.
I suspected at first that we made him. Wrong. We are making him. Day by day, word by word, action by

This Marble Monument Was Erected By The State
He was found by the Bureau of Statistics to be
One against whom there was no official complaint,
And all the reports on his conduct agree
That, in the modern sense of an old fashioned word, he was a saint
For, in everything he did he served the Greater Community
Except for the War till the day he retired
He worked in a factory and never got fired
But satisfied his employers, Fudge Motors Inc.
Yet he wasn't a scab or odd in his views
For his Union reports that he paid his dues,
(Our report on his Union shows it was sound)
And our Social Psychology workers found
That he was popular with his mates and liked a drink
The Press are convinced that he bought a paper every day,
And that his reactions to advertisements were normal in every way.
Policies taken out in his name prove that he was fully insured,
And his Health-card shows he was once in hospital but left it cured.
Both Producers Research and High-Grade Living declare
He was fully sensible to the advantages of the Instalment Plan
And had everything necessary to Modern Man,
A phonograph, a radio, a car, and a frigidaire.
Our researchers into Public Opinion are content
That he held the proper opinions for the time of year;
When there was peace, he was for peace; when there was war, he went.
He was married and added five children to the population,
Which our Eugenist says was the right number for a parent of his generation,
And our teachers report that he never interfered with their education.
Was he free? Was he happy? The question is absurd:
Had anything been wrong, we should certainly have heard.

wanted to help her. He was my friend, and they seemed liked newage goofballs. No one else asked me to join
their circle. I guess I should have taken that as an indication of my abilities.
Part 2: Suicide is a Way of Life
Then there were books. Our name might have been melancholy, but our situation was metropolitan. Some
thought the joke was to spoil the punchlines, others just sought dominion and control. And we all flew on silver
broomsticks to the resting place of the Brauns, disturbing both their peace and ours. Oh, we wrote, and like
good writers we rewrote. We revised it from a failed monotheism to a failed polytheism, looking for some
hope, some acceptance from ourselves; finding only paranoia in others and needles in our legs.
Part 3: The Tie that Binds
Near the end, we all hated eachother. We didn't admit this because we were all we had. Just a bunch of children
playing with occultism and ignoring the real problems: our health, our families, and ourselves. Given half a
clue, which we all had, we would have dropped it all and taken up lame jokes about the Pope. But having half a
clue is not the same as knowing you have it, and which thought the clue is. We had bus-fare but didn't know we
needed a bus.
Part 4: But I Knew It in the Wrong Way
I still remember all of it. I have it written down somewhere, amidst pages of delusional ramblings about me
being the center of the universe, including the second time it all happened to me. I always knew exactly what
was happening, but was too caught up in the game to stop. Oh, if only I had accepted Eris sooner… or kept my
promise to myself concerning ritual scarring. Instead, I've spent the last few years trying to figure it out. From
FMS to child welfare, Scientology to drug addiction, suicide to abortion, I subconsciously followed up on every
aspect of the situation. The only thing I know now is: I was and am a total fucking idiot.
Part 5: Psycherotica's Last Testament
All that trouble and I could have helped a lot more if I had just told her how I felt. No, not her: the other one.
The one that only fed me cryptic answers and kept all her pain inside. It doesn't matter now; we've all moved on
and put our limerence behind ourselves. In the end, though, I didn't get the girl. Perhaps it's best that way. I
needed this time alone. The demon may not have been real, but he still fucked me up.
Psycherotica is now here dead.
Et in Asylum Ego…
Some names have been obscured to protect the innocent. The rest are guilty as charged.
When we cannot find contentment in ourselves, it is useless to seek it elsewhere.
