As we gently approached gaping crevice that served as an
entrance, it was as if a vast and incomprehensible event had recently occurred.
Persons who had been entranced by current happenings staggered about strangely.
If only someone had been dressed as a pumpkin. But I feel
that this disregard for the actual substance that was involved felt far short
of what was desirable. In the end a portable typewriter was flung downstairs in
a cheap bid for publicity.
- Anthony Riddell
I adored a typewriter i had which ran out of typing ribbon and eventually was replaced by a computer keyboard that i adore less but understand its place at the center of the more irrational human machine of making profits above making us free. One day i will rescue a typewriter from being discarded and it will have absolute final veto in a room built for its purpose. Ty for the impulse.
