there is a constant catacylsm

there is dylan klebold and eric harris curled side by side on my lap each with one of my nipples in their mouths, nursing, except they have snarling dog's heads and are actually biting and chewing and drinking my blood and bloating like ticks at which point I notice their tiny fat bodies have cherubic wings and they are lifting into the air and they wheeze

"HAPPY 2009"

Did you like the snow?

Here's a little agit for the never-believer.

We support the Greek Anarchists and their ceaseless dedication to the offensive. We encourage our comrades everywhere to confront state violence and repression with every tool at their disposal. Police Violence, senseless murders & Capitol Punishment are all elements of oppression used by the state to hold us down.

Yea Yea Yea Yea

Here's a little ghost for the offering.

New Orleans Cops are on the Rampage all over town. Tis the Season.

IRON RAIL FILM NIGHTS: Tuesdays, 8:00PM

There's a whole Hellesponte's worth of free filmic firepower directed right at YOUR EYEBALLS, every Tuesday at 8 p.m., at the Iron Rail! Free? Free.
Here's what's on tap...

DEC 9: Made in Secret: The Story of the East Van Porn Collective (2005)

Intrigued by the subject of porn after seeing Boogie Nights, a group of young Vancouverites did some research. Rather than complain about the plasticized mammaries, gyno-cam shots and bad perms that dominate mainstream porn, they did something about it.

In action since 1998, the friends and lovers who formed the East Van Porn Collective create alternative forms of erotica based on anarchist politics, queer and feminist fundamentals and a whole other set of ideas about what makes people horny. Add a DIY attitude toward controlling the means of production and you've got, as one member quips, "the Fugazi of porn."

DEC 16: The Wind that Shakes the Barley (2006)

What an inspiring model of sustained anti-occupation struggle is provided us by the indomitable Irish! Resisting what was the world's major superpower by any means necessary for centuries, fiercely maintaining their own culture and traditions, and in the meantime turning out the best writing in the English language. Joke's on you, pommy fuckers! This movie apparently shows the violent imperial occupiers in a bad light. Recommended literary followup: Brendan Behan's Borstal Boy.

DEC 23: Nine to Five (1980)

Dolly Parton, Lily Tomlin, and Jane Fonda seize the means of production from their repulsive sexist pig employer, and discover "The boss needs you / You don't need him." In an ideal world they would also torture him to death, but the limited research I've done indicates that may not be a narrative element. Still a very good film by all accounts, and recommended for anyone who's ever had a sexist work environment, meaning, everyone who's ever been in the workforce at all. Also recommended for people who listen to "Jolene" over and over and over.

DEC 30: Newsies (1992)

How about a Disney Musical, at the Iron Rail? How about that shit? I dunno, guess there's a pro-labor message or something. Scrappy singin' dancin' newsboys in turn-of-the-previous-century New York put on a show of union resistance to hideous media-baron world-eater Walt Disney Joseph Pulitzer.

JAN 6: Downfall (2004)

I've heard of this 'Hilter' guy, in some class or something. It rings a bell. 156 minutes of the Third Reich crumbling? Lauded for its "grim realism?" Directed by some relentlessly solemn teutonic filmmenkrafftenspielenmacher I've never heard of? Oh, baby, how soon is now?? Roll on, January 6!

JAN 13: War, Inc. (2008)

"A funny, silly ride," according to an internet reviewer, this last year-y flick stars Hillary Duff, and takes place in a fictional middle-eastern nation-- they're all the same pretty much, go ahead and make up a generic one-- occupied by an American private corporation. Wait, what? And there's an assassin with a heart of gold, and that guy who ruined the movie version of The Grifters, and even "a sexy left wing reporter," aka Heterosexual Male Anarchist's Kryptonite.

WHAT HOBOS LIKE US CAN DO

Let me break it down for you. Let me make it clear for you. Let me drop elucidatory gems on this shit as best I can. We do AWESOME when we table. Note: "Table" as a verb in this context means "sit behind a table repping Iron Rail, spreading subversive writing."

We could always table more. We could do operas, we could just cold table lunchtime at a college, we could table cultural events-- art openings, lectures, parades, anything where people are. Now, it would help if we had more handbills we could hand out while tabling, to bring people in to the space. We're working on that.

In the meantime, people-- you, me, everybody-- want answers to why modern existence is such a hideous nightmare. Those are answers our po-faced prescriptive 'zines and bajillions of Derrick Jensen books can provide.

Following, please find a list of December musical performances it would be cool to table. THANK YOU for keeping the Iron Rail alive.
