I wrote another 1,932 NaNoWriMo words
today, bringing my accumulated total to
38,657.
I updated my word count on the official NaNoWriMo web site:

Let's face it. Corporations have won. The
odds are hopeless. We're just keeping ideas alive, and a few literal
and conceptual autonomous zones active.
The point is to keep your own ideas
alive. Ideas about what it means to be human, free, alive, etc.
Ideas about what a world is. A world that is not McWorld. The
idea is to continue creating and helping to flourish other kinds of
autonomous zones. . .The idea is that one day these ideas might be powerful
again. Assuming that the logic of capital ever exhausts itself.
But right now, it's sadly obvious, capital is more resourceful in recreating
itself. . .
