Grocery-Store Feast God: The Cash Pig
About the Retail Mart
The MONEY theme was coined in weights by
the Cash Pig; we as Employees serve it well in perpetual faith to the eternally right Customer, Guest of Honor.
[let’s not make claims for Golden Standards backed-up] UNDERGROUND: it was a chthonic theme of constantly tipping the scale in equivalence by worth standards to the actual use-values of the Merchandise [metals of merchants] while setting the scale or weighing the Material to set them off against various quantities of metal,
No other Material being worth a Burrito when it comes to setting Standards of Worth-First. This was first represented on printed paper in China during in the Song(?) Dynasty? or which?
In any case inflation of paper lira’s eurofication to the proverbial almighty dollar, seadrifts: low bills and high bills are supposedly representative of a nation’s ghostly gold hoard [red gold white gold and yellow gold] PAPER MONEY is born, autumn leaves by rivulets swept away in the craze of buying and selling frenzy with the clinking of coinage digitized directly to deposit a return on your Transcendental wage-flow, poured into digital databases, a complete abstraction for number in units of grain-dole, run-on sentencing themselves into heaped cybernetic baskets which are heaved with great labor to a magnified cathedral of cards, data stored in the 4th Dimension: an etherealized banker’s omnipotent incentive. We mean cybernumericals representative of paperheaps, all this counting and accounting for...

Quite the shopping experience!! Globalization , consumerism, socialization and normalization all wrapped up in a bundle! thanks for capturing the experience.
The Templars went underground but Baphomet made his way to the deli, didn't he? The fractional reserve doesn't deserve us, but how long can we go without it? It's easier to think it operates according to a plan, but it's taken on a mindless life of its own, a blundering behemoth whose masters have lost control, like King Kong broke his chains and terrorized the cityscape. How many planes to shoot him down?
Thanks again Kendall. I'm glad it was potent; I am pretty fond of meat myself though.;) Important to present things from all angles and carve that fine point where beauty meets repulsion.
The word 'BEASTMEAT' makes me want to go vegan. And I don't know if I want to touch the money in my wallet anymore... ;)
