Continued thread

This is true: He’s no longer running against an incumbent president, & #Harris has been skillful in making the campaign about #Trump’s record. Trump keeps pining for #Biden’s candidacy. At a stop in Detroit, he admitted that people are advising him “don’t waste your time” on Biden — even as he mentioned his former opponent 5X.

In his #disorientation, Trump retreats to his instincts.

He makes up stuff.

In a test of #character, #Trump shows his true #grift

In his #disorientation, the #GOP nominee & fmr president retreats to his instincts

The NYT ran a fine specimen of unintentional comedy this week: an essay by conservative writer #RichLowry titled “Trump Can Win on Character.”🤯
The only thing that could have made it better was if it had been under the byline of #StormyDaniels.

The Washington Post · In a test of character, Trump shows his true griftBy Dana Milbank

#SampoHänninen ‘Empiric studies’ (2011), about the #Berghain, #Berlin, in "Berghain: #Space, #affect, and #sexual #disorientation" by #JohanAndersson.
"In this article, I think of Berlin’s techno club Berghain as a form of relational aesthetics where encounters mediated by tactile sounds, labyrinthine #architecture, and libido-enhancing drugs create an unusually porous sexual subjectivity. By sketching out some changes in the composition of the club’s crowd and drug culture – a shift towards aphrodisiac substances such as G and mephedrone – I argue that Berghain has become a specific pharmacolibidinal constellation. Especially the recreational drug G can be thought of as an unruly liquid that concretises queer theory’s preoccupation with sexual fluidity. Instead of nausea-inducing drugs in combination with same-sex erotica – a popular technique in so-called ‘aversion therapy’ – this is a ‘gay conversion therapy’ in reverse whereby erotic horizons expand and multiply through the combination of chemicals and a multi-sensory overload of pleasurable stimuli. Rather than thinking of sexual orientation as located inside the body, I suggest, we might think of it as located inside the building."
