Ich bin Faust

The day you realise that you've been Faust, is the day you become free.

Those Germans realised it way back.. and look what happened.
Mozart, Beethoven, Freud, Marx, Einstein, Krebs, Koch, Planck, Brecht, Heisenberg, Nietsche, Hertz, Jung, Fahrenheit..
and so on.
and look what happened the day they lost the vision.

Plum brandy and Gauloise

is the foundation of the modern republic.
Vive la republique!

Der Kunst (the Art)

ist da liberation.
Ja.
Keine nirvana (no nirvana)
keine volk (no ethnicity/identity)
keine fuhrer (no leader).

Class

I have finally arrived in a class-less society.
Capitalist but classless.

I like the idea of waiting tables
and throwing out my own trash.
Inventing an algorithm
driving my own car through
the streets with no name.

The sense of oppression I felt in South Asia
is gone.
Boom.
Kaputt.
It's a place where people cook their own meals
and wash their own clothes.
How lovely.
