Theatre of The Absurd (2) *

(Photography, typography and layout are by yours truly.)

 

All text (except Logic and Trust) excerpted from a transcript available at whitehouse.gov and checked against other news sources.

 

*The title references an informal "movement" known as Theatre of the Absurd from the mid-20th Century. Some good words to help make sense of it:

without purpose

illogical

out of harmony

useless

devoid of reason

meaningless

chaotic

lacking order

uncertain

 

Shifts of techtonic proportions are upon us, The ground on which we stand becomes unstable, so we must find our footing.

 

It occurs to me that the 16 Feb press conference held by president 45 was a stunning, if unwitting, performance in Theatre of the Absurd.

 

But this is just me rambling and saying entirely too much. Honestly, I'd much rather be watching a performance of Pinter or Ionesco at this moment.
