It’s telling, like some mammoth statement of the power of capital it opened up on a random Thursday in March. It lay hidden in hoarding for years, and then just appeared to occupy the landscape, dislocate and redefine the geography of Dundrum. It announced itself everywhere in the media, crowds of shoppers pushed their faces against the glass, and finally its doors swung open while they trampled each other in a rush to stores they’d marked out days in advance. 75, 000 people in the first day - taking some time off work, with or without the boss’s permission. The place looks like the future used to look in films from the 1960’s, conveyor belts drag you back and forth from floor to floor, as regular as an assembly line, while capsules of consumers shoot up and down. Dundrum Town Centre does not bode well for how our lives are being ordered for us. read full story / add a comment

It has long been observed, that on Sunday the mass does different things.
Some go to church, some return from clubs and sleep, some read a book, some do the gardening, some catch up with their kids, some eat a lot, some practise yoga, some Vote.
It has long been valued that on their non-banking days people are pretty much the same as when they work, graft, toil and sweat. Except they have less money making opportunities. This facilitates their increased participation in their society as citizens and nationals of the Civilised World.
It has long been observed that the mass on their non banking days readily absorb shite.
This is why coups are most successful on the weekend, and elections as well.
It is on your non-banking days that you are presented with the most filagree woven tissues of spirit and lie, ghost and truth. It is through weekend that we have considerable space in your head.

2 prisoners allowed themselves to be crucified yesterday in a demand for rights.

The image is dramatic, one of two prisoners in García Moreno prison Quito, who yesterday allowed themselves to be crucified by fellow inmates to demand the return of "reduced sentances" (a normal first world penology benefit aimed at succesful reinsertion), rights which were stripped from the inmates of Equador's 36 prisons by the congress in 2001. The prison was built for 700 prisoners and presently houses 1200 without remission and adecquate nutrition.

Statewide protests began by prisoners on Monday and extended to hungerstrikes in the prisons of Quito and Guayaquil on wednesday.

It has been a little over 2 months since the collapse of the Guiterrez regime on April 20th.
Yet little progress has been felt to have been made. This is felt by support movements and analysts to be due to excessive internal middle class interest in rattling rusty sabres whilst the poorest and specifically those of the Social Assemblies are further marginalised and neglected. read full story / add a comment
