Extinction Chronicles - Thursday 16 October 2o25 ·




 "The more things change, the more they remain the same" - old french proverb ·

I have very nearly made the mistake .  .. (began my last entry to which i must now contradict); just took a toke and am preparing for the ‘mother of protests’ on oct8teenth which may very well seal the fate of our species¡! listening to Bob Marley & looking forward to hearing “Get Up Stand Up.” I have a medical examination on the day of sat8teenthoct which i am hoping becomes a collaboration of healing. I’ve developed a painful bulge which follows the inguinal canal which corresponds to a hernia 20 year old hernia repair over the femoral articulation of a decaying the deterioration of the head of my right trochanter. a number of outstanding questions preceding the bulge @ my groin along a 20 year old femoral hernia repair of the left inguinal 


The surface of an arthritic right trochanter head is characterized byloss of smooth cartilage, formation of bony outgrowths (osteophytes), and changes to the underlying bone. This leads to a rough, irregular surface where the natural smooth, gliding action of the joint is lost, resulting in bone-on-bone contact, joint space narrowing, and potential subchondral sclerosis (bone hardening).

Creatively a wonderful day, scarfed a sourdough, kimchi, parmesan, garlic, plantainita, frijole negros refrito (processed); mustard and Valentina salsa (processed) and proceeded to leave out the inspiration for my repast, a fresh carton (plastic) of alfalfa sprouts. In this ‘hyper-efficient’, swallowing inline burst of turns out to be Vitamin K, dense nutrient (good to avoid prior to hip replacement for ‘K’ promotes blood clotting - blood blots being an impediment to successful pelvic prosthesis installations. The commentary is more zeal than manic ‘acting out’ - Not that there’s anything wrong with that. Am standing while writing, aiding the strength stamina of the gravity bearing muscles of the ‘horse posture’ from tai chi, although just now my fatigue is more manic because my ‘perpendicular’ thighs are quivering at a 30 ˚  incline, the amusement of manipulating an eyeball of the ascii “kilroy” found near the end of this essay being used to delineate degree because i am too disinterested to learn rtf lingo for such niceties is almost Kafka-esque in its murky irony, but fun is where ya’ find it, non¿

“”¿(º  _º)? ’ “” 


Then again ‘it’ lacking the all important antecedent of ‘polite society’, itself a mythological conceit that again seems to lack a referent, though mostly based on it’s naked greed passing as ‘largess.’ I’d be curious to learn how much the cessation of pain i feel writing in a prone position on my mattress-fee fleece-rich/faux-futon bed is fatigue or a creative dopamine-rich exhalation long overdue¿ That is a question for those new to these Exchrons’. Bob Dylan - “Time Passes Slowly” #1 (Alternate) is playing in the background adding to a poignant filmy bohemian haze promenading across my screen as i wait for answers from Dr. Juarez; self, et. al., Moments from 6:00 pm; am fed, shooting for normal 4:oo-5:00 am ‘Revile’ to prepare for long Saturday that is expected to include; a medical fast until 3:oo pm, a journey to Centro to support a 3.5% PROTEST rule; then ‘Off to See the Wizard’ after which i’ll return to ‘where there’s no place like it - Home’


1) why did my pelvic trouble manifest in 2o15 or so, as an unexpected buckling at the knee on my right side - commenced drinking/smoking after 10 year hiatus Montevideo, Uruguay · at times excessive to stringently curtailed 50/50 until 2025 · SAF

2) what is the cracking-knuckle sound which i wanted to share with the chiropractor/orthopedist/traumalogio in Viet Nam 2o21 after rupturing a disc lifting a garafon of water while bent 45˚  at the waist under a staircase?

3) is degenerative osteoarthritis included in Dr. Gabor Matès impaired autoimmune and emotional repression conjectures?

4) did my morbid obesity at the time of my laparoscopic appendectomy distort/create fascia adhesion in 2oo5 ? if so, how ¿

5) what effect will the 7,312.5 miles i ran between 2oo5 and 2o15 have on my healing

(((3.75 miles x 3.75 days per week) x 52 weeks per year) x 10 years

6) is the onset of incontinence a new feature of my rapidly modifying pelvic girdle¿ 


fri 12:12 pm oct 17 2o25


must’ve peed with increasing pain every hour last night; after day break i wet myself twice for good measure while making coffee, watering the grounds and cooking diuretic vegetable gruel to prepare an empty alimentary canal for the unknown of the morrow; so you can appreciate my dismay when blood was left in my first stool sample of the day, followed by enough blood from my urethra to hock a pint size ’lugey - this is where the narrative grows peculiar, for while gathering my ‘bug bag’ and wondering how to educate myself on the normalcy of a loin bulge, saenguination, and whether i’ll be able to pass the bolus of parmesan & sprouts i had wolfed while panic attacking the ‘windmill’ of my decaying trochanter head and what defeats liver flukes who might come lodging with their ovine hosts where my laundry gray water pours into the earth - and i now have two clean trouser kits, however damp they might be before i leave to meet my fate in the morning  


stay tuned; for i hear .  .. ... Robert Johnson - “Malted Milk” is coming down the pike; followed closely by “Slow Leake” - Lafayette Leake; Chess Blues 1954-1960 (Disc 3)
