10.4.25: Untitled 1 #86

Leave a Comment / Novels in real time / John Swofford

     Ok—now, i imagine AOC is really pissed, because i saw her whole figure on tv and she didn’t look overweight at all.  I happen to be really confused, and that confusion is what makes AOC so angry.  I should just mind my own business, right?  But why did i write what i wrote?  True, […]

13      All this time i thought i was doing something that would help get AOC elected president, but i got hit with a reality check when it occurred to me that my thoughts on telepathic communications combined with my obsession with a person I never met could lead AOC and others to believe that

     Are you okay?  here i was, at the grocery story, buying loads of cream of mushroom soup and other canned goods and using it to fill up the closets so that i might somehow put a stop to this idea of junk accumulating and holding me hostage—as if i had a career that would’ve

     she knew what was going to happen, and she didn’t care   now we were talking about the supreme court, and the fact that Ruth Ginsburg left the court when a republican was in office—meaning that a republican judge was going to end up taking her place.  we were lamenting our fortunes just a bit—because

     Ah, yes, AOC was a little hurt, i could tell.  i could try a little harder, in the future, but i couldn’t undo what had been done; on the other hand, she thought i was cute—when, that is, i wasn’t constantly putting her down or saying that she hugged somebody too long.  i couldn’t

    Now, I was in DC for a few days for my brother’s surprise birthday party: therefore there was like a one in ten billion chance of running into AOC as opposed to a one in ten trillion chance or something like that—furthermore, if i chanced upon AOC, I’d run and around the corner and

12      Weird: AOC waved at me—now, i know that AOC waving at the camera didn’t mean that Alex knew anything about me—but one of the things about schizophrenia (apparently, even if you’re taking your medication), is that everything seems to have some greater purpose when it comes to the big picture.  Naturally, then, as

     she wants to win more than she wants to change the world   and i can’t say that i wasn’t a strategic thinker myself: indeed, things can get nasty when it comes to free health care and a living wage (thirty dollars an hour).  I was willing to do almost anything to get our AOC

     i’m not digging in yet   i’m on the verge of digging in   are you kidding me?   Is this for real?  but we knew that you had to run for president when the people wanted you to run for president—if you turned them down, then they’d be let down, and they might look elsewhere.  even

     AOC was pissed: she said something about me trying to critique her into place in order to insert my dominance over her.  I didn’t think that was the case, but she was in a bad mood, so, instead of getting argued out of my mind (which is something I used to do with McCord),
