The Times is reporting that the famous South Central farm in LA is getting uprooted and the people scattered. Good thing they're making more room for warehouses: our society's most urgent need.

Go run around and get all sweaty and grimy. It's hot.

Last Friday there were hundreds of bicyclists going around the perimeter of the farm in circles, clogging up the streets and fucking up traffic. I wanted to join in, but was too tired from work. You get a feeling of the epic when you see so many people, well, sweating together, exerting themselves for a benign purpose, however useless. It's a shame. I don't think there's anything to be done about it, short of, I dunno, a more serious protest, like innocents setting their selves afire. Violence ...

You'd think they could come up with a less strenuous protest for those of us who work for a living. Here in Santa Ana during the May 1 protests they had the right idea - walk slowly down the street and hand out free water.

People setting themselves on fire in America would take a fuckin miracle, or the promise of quick weight loss.
