Those beknottedly bound up in #tensegrity—in unfulfilled retrofuture promises—do not live in any present; thus have no succession of futures.

They cannot "live now as we think human beings should live, in defiance of all that is bad around us", for they are still living as they were once told they would live—in deference to all that was once before them.

Remembering only "those times and places" that are not to be.

"You do you" is Eu-gen-ics. (@[email protected])

@[email protected] Temporality of unfulfilled retrofuture promises is past as writ, legal, sacred & binding—by which future commanded to unfold. To wit, co-signatories to kayfabe panto do not "think" DNC will get us out of it. No, they *know* it was avowed that DNC would. They have their receipts for services unrendered, vouchers for ego-value therein vested. That bill of goods is their albatross—they remain becalmed… at sea. Life-in-death still has their souls—their "woful agony" as yet foreclosed.

Riff on Santayana:

Unfolding, far from consisting of extension, depends on admissiveness—letting-go-ness, yet also letting-in-ness. Extension—of promises, of commitments, of fealty—when interminable, affords no present to enhance and no future situated for propitious enactment.

When extension is not relented, ever yet baggage, autobiography is intractable. Those who cannot unfetter from the past are condemned to re-inscribe it, missing successions of the present—shut out from their experience.

Sitting with "admissiveness" as antithesis of "denialism"

This interminable extension, this intractable autobiography (#FrosteanBargain), is "skin in the game" of #perquisitive #classposture:

Is why VBNMW cannot live in successions of this present—every now being shut out from their experience—condemned to re-inscribe elections of 2016/2020 onto today.

Is why covid-reckless can't "live with" caution—instead re-inscribing a 2019 as yet unmourned.

@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] Unlike those of #disaccommodation #classposture, those of #perquisitive classposture have an estate in #RentierSociety. They have power alongside the #KayfabePanto, those of oligarch class posture, the consensus media, and #FifthEstate. They exercise that power to defend their vested #EgoValue. More than their ecological footprint, that is their skin in the game. Hence only turn up when sacred righteousness of choice, esp. reified choice, is exposed. 3/3
