The Weird and the Eerie
Manage episode 449708490 series 2619686
To celebrate 75 episodes of pure socialist republican slurry, we thought we would kick off Season 2 of Casement's Leftovers by returning to the man who first brought us all together: Mark Fisher. The Weird and the Eerie – published just weeks before Fisher's death by suicide in January 2017 – is a work of literary criticism that has always seemed strange to us. We get together to try to make sense of this final work, which brings us to conversations about the nature of reality, capitalism, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, and everything in between. What is the "weird" and the "eerie"? Why does any of this matter? Cross the threshold and get weird with us. It's nice in here.
The rabbit killer did not eat for a week
And no way he can look at meat
No bottle has he anymore
It could be his mangled teeth
He sees jawbones on the street
Advertisements become carnivores
And roadworkers turn into jawbones
And he has visions of islands
Heavily covered in slime
The villagers dance round pre-fabs
And laugh through twisted mouths
Don't eat, it's disallowed
Suck on marrowbones and energy from the mainland
