The Crack

Animal Crack The animal crackers were talking to me again, this time in whispers. Inaudible at first, when you didn’t pay close enough attention to the rhythm of their speeches. Their voices like slaves freed from their chains and running away into the wilderness, confused but free, hurt but cured, as they moaned their hard and warranted tears. Their eyes shut yet open, and their mouths heavy yet agape. They feared what I would do to them. Their fear seemed real, but I didn’t have much…

Steve and the Cracking of Spirit While Steve provides a variety of resources for the articulation of potentially resistive politics within spaces of control, in recognizing memes as pharmakon, any modal analysis would be remiss without acknowledging the potentially negative side effects. Specifically, the Old Economy Steve meme promotes generational conflict that can reify the dissociative logics that embolden the proletarianizing force of control. Specifically, while the criticism offered by…

today’s era, all the news and information we received is either edited or incomplete. Before they release something to the media or publicize an information it’s either edited or some information are left out depending on the sources own interests.

critical elements of an effective maintenance program is crack repair. Why Is Crack Repair So Vital? Asphalt pavement relies on a solid, stable foundation for strength and resiliency. If the foundation becomes eroded or destabilized, the pavement can begin to sag under its own weight. Every vehicle that passes over the weakened area causes additional damage, and before long, your pavement will be plagued by potholes and alligator cracking. Cracks allow water to infiltrate beneath the pavement,…

Cracked head One day when I went on a very painful car trip with my deranged mother to the resene paint shop, as you can imagine I was a very tedious and squirmy child and when my mother was talking to the shop person about these hideous paint colours She sent me over to the very brightly coloured children's play table. The table had all sorts of “magical” toys from things like a giant teddy bear to a Thomas The Tank Engine train set, and then there were the deadly LEGO BLOCKS. I was a four…

Elephant Food In Charles Siebert “An Elephant Crackup?” the author analyzes the hazardous lack of empathy between the people and elephants that coexist in Africa. Like Michael Moss’s work “The Extraordinary Science of Addictive Junk Food” this lack of empathy between food companies and the consumer leads to a conflict of interest for the poor and lower classes of society. Giant Food Corporation’s bank on the “conscious effort -taking place in labs and marketing meetings and grocery-store…

secretly resent that it didn’t turn out that way in this one. Anger powers me, for my life tells me there is not enough love or fair play in the world. I don’t remember a time when she didn’t sell crack. That made her the ultimate hustling mom: CNA by day to make money that wouldn’t get us in trouble; crack cook and connect by night. At least one day a month, I would come into the house after school. “Hi, Ma,” I would say. I would turn the corner and find her breaking down a six tray cookie.…

their shoulders, often without complaining, dealing with cooking, cleaning, working and taking care of the kids.

Ruby tells Dre and Rainbow that she sent money to online scammers who claimed to have kidnapped Junior. Dre usually sees Ruby scamming others not the one that is scammed. Rainbow tells Dre that…

Donna Murch’s “Crack in Los Angeles: Crisis, Militarization, and Black Response to the Late Twentieth-Century War on Drugs” article focused on how the American government tried to combat the “war on drugs” – a phrase created by President Nixon – and the “crack epidemic,” an issue fueled by the media, in Los Angeles through policies made by the government, such as the Street Terrorism Enforcement and Prevention (STEP) Act in 1988 and Operation Hammer in the same year.
