is flipping through some microfilms of his old campus newspaper, ca. 1961-1962. First impressions: the Plainsman of the early 60s may as well have been called the Auburn University Greek Activities Newsletter; most of the active debates in the editorial pages seem to be over some ongoing obscenity prosecutions against local newsstands and in loco parentis restrictions on Auburn women. And man, they used to run a lot of cigarette ads in college newspapers.

Dear LazyWeb:

Anyone here have experience and/or advice to share on DCVS-Autosync? I’d be happy to find a replacement for Dropbox but my daily work does depend on the replacement being reliable and more or less seamless.

is leafing through some of Jo Labadie’s radical poetry (he calls them “Labor Songs” but I defy you to sing this stuff).

Possible candidates for the next Anarchist Classics Series booklet? It’d be, ah, a bit of a change of pace. I’d like to reprint “Doggerel for the Underdog” in its entirety, but that will probably take a format other than foldover booklets.

is listening to Ambrosian chants on Pandora, and folding up Market Anarchy & Anarchist Classics zines for shipment. This month: Kevin Carson & David S. D’Amato, Hebert Spencer, and an awesome photo featuring a school of fish and a shark.

So what do you call it when the “social media marketing” for a show actively disengages you and discourages from wanting to keep up with it? Because every time I find a large cluster of Walking Dead fans talking on the Internet, I can’t help but thinking that really I don’t want to be part of a “social network” with the people (*) who seem to take the scenario and the constant sociopathic behavior of the principals more as some kind of fantasy wish-fulfilment than as a horror show.

(* And when I say “people,” it’s really about 99% dudes specifically.)

Occupy Chicago march downtown at Chase Tower. Placards, picket and street theater on financial control and deformation of higher ed. Some affinity groups headed on next to Fifty Five E Jackson to confront DePaul U administration and protest upcoming tuition hikes.

is in Chicago for the next four days. Without much of a fixed schedule except for the occasional evening event. Suggestions? Thoughts?

is printing / folding / stapling a case of Market Anarchy and Anarchist Classics booklets this morning.

Dear Pandora: I love yr service but is there any way I can convince you that, just because my Working channel includes Diana Krall and Ella Fitzgerald, still doesn’t mean I ever want to listen to instrumental Smooth Jazz? Please? For the love of God?

So OK you know it would have been kind of cool if I hadn’t had to get $500 of repairs on the car’s radiator just two days before the transmission decided to go all “I AM NOT A TRANSMISSION I AM DYNAMITE!”
